I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.

Still pretty amazing!

Is the canvas covered notebook this is painted on something you bought or something you put together? Just curious.

My eye is drawn most to the highlights on his collar, here. In particular the one on our left and below his chin looks very oil painty to me; you can go from the extreme light to the extreme dark in such a small space. I think maybe his hair just needs more darker strands shot through it.

Also, if you see me, take me out for Chinese food. I'm starving.

I hadn't thought of doing that to old binder covers. Sounds like fun. It is also good to see you working with oils again.

The eyes are wonderful. They kind of suck you in, while at the same time warning you that you'll get burned.

...or at least that's how I see it.

The patch on his neck also catches my eye - the little place that seems to be paler, ringed in yellow. A shadow effect?

Don't use a flash. My steph father is a professional photographer. When I take my paintings to him, we usually go outside and stand in very lightly shaded areas, to get the light and yet have nothing glaring over the picture. Usually around 3-4 in the afternoon. It works a treat.

That said, did you know that you draw the most lucious of lips ever? You do. And you paint them even more deliciously. This is really lovely.

Eh, I like his hair personally. You do well with paint. <3

also, you sure seem to have a fondess of black eyes, eh? They sure are pretty.

Yeah, I understand what you're getting at. Photographs always mess up the real colour, especially the subtle things. I still haven't figured out how to take good pictures of my traditional work

Anyway, nice job with the oils. It's always so much different from digital, and I know that relying too much on digital sometimes makes it harder to work with traditional medium sometimes, as it's a completely different technique. But I like the horns, and the eyes. It's hard to do finer detail on a small canvas like that, especially when the brushes can only go so small and the oils refuse to cooperate

Hope to see more traditional work though, despite how much I love your digital work, it's always nice to see variety. (yes, I'm a silent watcher... Guilty as charged...)
