Ooh! What is this? I just discovered this little nugget while cleaning my inbox, but I knew instantly it was yours! Your work is just so definable. Instantly recognizable! I really like this for the storytelling aspect. Based on the lighting, and the angle alone you can tell that she's on her way to do something very important, and that she's almost there. There's this feeling of intense suspense, and tension in the tone, and mood of the piece. I'm a really big fan of the almost greyscale approach to this piece. It's haunting. Your works, while not always the brightest, use color in a way that's vivid, and emotional. This piece strips away that emotion, and replaces it with this bone chilling atmosphere. A foreboding song and dance. The way you sparingly use colors makes it more impactful too. The red of her chest armor feels more important because it's the only thing in color next to her eyes, and lips. You define the nicks, and scratches in her breastplate, and texture in her belt through the one singular strand of light that emits upon her. This pulls the eyes towards the area, while also highlighting your masterful use of value and light contrast to create a unique focal point. The anatomy's also really solid. There's a point that I get to when I'm looking at your pieces, where I just step back stop analyzing, and just look at it for what it is. You don't just draw, and paint. You make art. Your work is art. They'll hang it up in galleries, and business, and people will look at it, and say, "Oh shit, that's some cool art." Not every illustrator is like that. They can't all say what they make is art. You can. It's so amazing to me. What you make it's the definition of art. You're just so amazing. Great job. Well done. Keep it up. Rootin' for you, friendo.
