Hi steve,

Thanks for wandering over to comment on my thread ... It's great how you find much more depth in an interior ("Morning") than you do outside ("Street"), if Street is meant to be outdoors, I think it must be the way the lights blend ... I wonder whether you've looked much at Caillebotte, he's very underrated, but not at all understated!

Thanks for viewing the boys....interesting comment! Yeah!...Street's background was just a place in his time, long forgotten..
'Morning'...Wanting him too see and be in a larger world.
Thanks again!

Hi Steve, great work. Despite the high detail I find it surrealistic in a certain way due to the angles and the two layers that clearly sit one over the other. Did you paint from reference or live?

[stevemawmv]

AndreaMG,
Thank you!
Yeah!...'Detail, kinda got into it on this one, however not quite as much as in 'Waiting', think I almost developed carpal tunnel syndrome on that one! As for 'References, when I do use one, I do something kinda wierd, I purposely will reposition 'Everything about it, changing postion of the face, ten to twenty degrees, the eyes 'especially what the're gazing at, and of course my head tilts and posture angles...'only... in a effort to make it my own.

Hope you got your new displays, and... 'I too hope you find more time to paint!
Good hearing from you,
Thanks again!
Take Care,
Steve

Ok I get it, those angles give a distinctive tone to the paintings indeed. As for the displays I got a Samsung S27C750 which accepts 75Hz signals and has a static contrast of around 5.000:1 (it'a a VA panel). It's so big that I had to give up to the idea of pairing two monitors, one for the reference picture and the other for the actual drawing (I wish I had a 4k monitor though ...). Anyway I ordered a surfacepro2 for my xmas gift in order to be able to paint even in the bed! Say hi to the boys! Cheers
