Such great composition and atmosphere! You've captured the charge of the crowd so well. Opposed to it, the calmness and serenity of the body seems almost surreal.

The composition and hands on the crowds really makes this stand out and the lighting over the female subject leaves a sense of spiritual to the painting wonderful stuff.

THis is really stunning. The contrast of colors and composition are brilliant. I seriously could stare at this for hours. This goes for all of your paintings that I've looked at, I could learn a thing or two from you. Also I saw your work in one of the Spectrum books, that's how I found you. I'm going to try to get in there too next year, see ya there!

Your work really inspires me. I've always liked to do fantasy pics without all of the usual action shots and you make that happen throughout your work of truly different and original themes and viewpoints. This piece truly captures that ideal. Thank you so much for doing what you do!

Oh my God the size. I have hand painting phobia already I couldn't imagine drawing THAT MANY. The lighting in phenomenal and really gives this a desperate feel.

I may have asked you this already, but how do you digitize these? Photo or scan? I can't seem to get satisfactory results with either...
