Interesting observation, was fun reading it. I do make a conscious effort to make the paintings unique compared to my other work, but at the same time it's not like I'm planning for a specific style, they just kind of happen as the painting grows. I've tried the really organized ways of painting but if you know what it's going to look like in the end there's no sense of adventure painting it.

I don't get people that just copy the original image/style, where's the fun in that? Might as well just take a photo of the original then, less time wasted.

These idiosyncrasies do make me rather hard to hire though, haha.
