somma my art

hi. i don't know why i haven't really posted here; i am an artist afterall!
here are some of my portraits.

 

wow I really like the second's view on his face. very nice.

 

They are very well composed and executed. Exellent work.

 

the second one is awsome, the nose and the right eye are great. I dont like the first one so much because its more like a "still" to me, the second one is wonderful!

 

hmm...thanks...

yeah, the painting on the right is more my thing. for that, he took the photo himself. the other one is of my martial arts teacher. the photo was taken of him, so perhaps it was a bit more contrived. i'd say my paintings range between both, because some are impromptu (and i don't make money off em - they're for my collection!) and others are set up so people can have an 'official' portrait. sometimes people even have me change their features around so they look better!

 

I'm not usually that into portraits but these are hot!

 

i love the second one. its got movement and character to it

 

i really like ur style, i love the different veiws.

 

thanks!
you guys are making me rethink my approach to the first painting. too static?

 

I like the first painting. It's very traditional. I'm not really a fan of modern art, so that's my opinion. I would keep doing what you like. Art is not about people liking it, it's about them looking at it and seeing what you've done. But what do I know? I'm still stuck in 1450.
