john, this is easily one of my favorite works of yours. You have inspired me to take on some realistic renderings.
Artist Reply: well I am humbled and honored that you would say such a thing. If my work can be an inspiration to any artist, it is worth doing for that reason alone.
Wonderful lighting and chiaroscuro effect John. I'm amazed at your ability to pump so many incredible paintings out...What's your secret?? I know, just good ol' fassioned hard work, dedication and perseverance, right?! Splendid work.
Artist Reply: work fast, work late (less distraction) and drink alot of coffee. I appreciate your comments...you are a gifted artist.
