My high school English teacher commissioned this portrait for his classroom of Hemingway:

Small photo, but it was a full 152x120cm.

ThesFlishThngs - I would have too, for sure. He was such a handsome young guy... But alas, alcoholism ravaged his looks!

Maj.Nick Danger - I can almost feel the dog's fur in that portrait, just by looking at it. I'm always amazed when artists can manipulate their medium into such texture...
There most definitely is a future there for you, if you want it!

Thanks. :) But I think my greatest "fear" about success is being stuck doing only one type of subject matter. I have always thought that the greatest artists were those that could handle any subject matter because of the fact that their draftsmanship was up to the task. So I always strive to emulate them in my work. :eek:
One of my greatest influences, the great Maxfield Parrish, was stuck for quite a long time in his career as the artist who painted "girls on rocks". Painting became more of a boring chore for him until he was able to just paint the landscapes he loved later in his life.
Hopefully, I will be able to remain diversified and paint whatever I like, or at least a wide variety of subjects, as well as make a good living.

Available Light.

All shots were taken with available light, whether a household lamp or late afternoon sun coming in through a window.

Have been working on a series making double exposures in camera then experimenting with printing on outdated papers with some additional darkroom fun.

Found this thread a little late in the game, but the quality of work from our Lounge members is amazing.

I've posted some of my tattoo work in the "tattoos" thread but here is some of my work on canvas . . .

You'd be surprised! Many artists stuck to what they knew, and became famous for it, like Renior (landscapes) and Van Gogh (still life.) The only truly diversified artist I know of is Da Vinci - he wasn't called a Renaissance Man for nothing! ;)

This picture includes pictures of my brothers in it, it was a composite I had to make back in college. It means a lot to me that I was able to display it for my college.
