well yeah I did paint it..
I was doing a bit of an experiment in using photoshop as a tool for sketching, rather than pencil, and then realised that I could take it a bit further and sketch in colour, and adjust composition, tone and completely manipulate the image etc etc..

I did end up meticulously painting the finished pieces onto canvas by hand.. a perverse sense of irony..? the peice there is 1200mm x 400mm [img] [/img]

did you suss it was a photoshop image straight away..?

Not immediately as i viewed it on the site link you posted but upon importing it into PS, well?....... yeah i did.

So photoshop to lay it out then onto canvas?, makes sense to do it that way i guess as paint and equipment is expensive....I know from all of my balls-ups....from what i've spent on materials to the amount of time i've wasted, not to mention the sheer frustration at not being good enough I expect I could've bought a canvas from a gallery.

Do you sell your work? - any links to other stuff you've done or can you recommend any online galleries to browse through?

I was affiliated with a couple of trendy galleries, but at the moment I'm up to my eyeballs in nappies and lego and chaos and grief being a full time stay at home dad.. so any art career that I might aspire to is on hold for a few years

If you're interested in looking at some more stuff, drop me an email and I can send you some more info that way..
I've not got any stuff for sale at the moment, but I'm always willing to discuss commissions..

email in profile.. 🙂
