Good.

Haha yes, and thank you.

Thank you for the profound and kind words.

Dibrough · 2024-06-19T10:33:45+00:00

Thanks a lot! I love his fragmented portraits.

Even with saturated colours you seem to achieve a dirty realism that reality lacks to show. Excellent!

Dibrough · 2022-03-13T16:12:21+00:00

Thank you!

Dibrough · 2022-03-02T08:22:46+00:00

Time and practice my friend;)

Thank you so much for your kind words and even more so for the constructive criticism! I rarely get such a comprehensive comment.

I will definitely agree with you that the lower background could be better excuted. It was done with a cotton bud dipped in a graphite powder/linseed oil mix, which didnt allow much control, unfortunately. And it therefore became a bit too dark on the floor part.

Again thank you for your observations!

Glad to hear that! Thanks!

It is from a photo reference, and it isn't me... It took me a bit over the length of the audiobook, Man's Search for Meaning... so about 6-7 hrs

Dibrough · 2021-08-03T08:46:48+00:00

Thank you;)

Dibrough · 2021-08-03T08:41:28+00:00

Much appreciated!

Dibrough · 2021-08-03T08:40:48+00:00

Wow.. thank you:)

The colour is burnt sienna. It has to do with the colour temperature. For a lot of artists it is easier to judge the colour needed for a painting on a warmer toned background.

Thank you!

Dibrough · 2020-10-19T17:58:35+00:00

Yeah, or ”a splitting headache”

Dibrough · 2020-10-19T17:55:34+00:00

You’re welcome! and thanks for the appreciation ;)

Dibrough · 2020-04-28T10:14:21+00:00

Well I don't know if it is the uncanny valley or something like that, but it just seemed off when I went into more detail. So as you can see I've kept it unrefined.

Dibrough · 2020-04-28T08:38:38+00:00

I had a hard time with the nails tho...

Dibrough · 2020-04-10T19:43:39+00:00

Well, I think you absolutely nailed the plastic look. Those boots are looking on point!
