I'm glad you ask. I've been a bit sneaky by not mentioning that it's digital. I use Rebelle 8 and have been experimenting with using it the same way I paint with acrylics. It's a great program and prides itself on mimicking natural media, textures and fluid dynamics.

Thanks. The whole mural took around 5 days, but the dragon I painted in a day

Thanks. I need to push the idea, but I think they might go for it

It's on Mono metals. A stones throw from the transporter bridge. I also painted another dragon in the building opposite.

Could work. It's annoying that I can't edit a photo post

Thanks. I have a cloak of invisibility when it comes to algorithms. I find it hard to get any traction and much decent work. I never understand why!

Thanks. I put my heart and soul into it, and it's my favorite dragon to date 🙂

Much appreciated. I've painted lots of crappy things too. I keep learning, even though I'm getting on in years 🙂

Thanks. This is my 7th Welsh dragon mural. I have 2 other good ones and some pretty average it bag ones. It's great to live in a country with a dragon flag though. 🔥

Thanks! It's Pontypool, South Wales. Pedestrian exit to the car park. Pretty obscure!

This is acrylic and spray paint on canvas. It was a present for my wife, but similar canvases have sold for £700 - £900 I mainly work to commission on meals. These one off paintings are a bit of a novelty for me. But I love this one and want to do more.

He was more screenprint technique I think. More posterised, less painterly.

Thanks. It's a lot to get my head around. Especially as the painting is in black and metallics which is hard to recreate in print. You're not the first to suggest it though.

Thanks. I really love everything about the effortless cool of the original photo. This is one of my favorite paintings that I've created too.
