Your work is utterly beautiful. This sort of slightly macabre and heavily abstract approach that succeeds on execution without resorting to shock value elements is probably my favorite visual art in the world. I know some artists would consider this an insult, but do you have any digital representations of your pieces? I'd really like a closer look.

In all, I'm well impressed. Keep on truckin'.

Thank you so much! It took a long time to finesse the shock value and overly ghoulish elements out of this work.
My website is in my sig. They aren't high res but if you see one you like I'd be more than happy to upload a printable version.

Serious question, for some of your creations, do you find inspiration listening to Tool?

I honestly don't listen to much Tool anymore. My studio mix is usually pretty mellow. My current mix has : Mazzy Star , Steven Wilson, Corrina Round, NIN Ghosts, Muse, Mark Lanegan, Adele, Queens of the Stone Age. I also mix in a few random pop artists like maroon 5, Nikki Manaj, Kelly Clarkson for some romping moments of fun beats. If I get a new album I usually will listen to that but I always come back to the songs in my playlist

Usually what happens is I'll find a song that hits me the right way and only listen to it on loop till that drawing is done.

JK, looks great to me!!!!
Hahahaha!

What is also funny about that is my Dad find an animal in every single drawing I do. It is usually a dog.

I never remember to come into this forum. These are really cool. I don't know enough about art to comment beyond that. There is this really powerful mixture of hunted and yearning in these
