Not really graphics but I wanted to post my reason for my inactivity in the last few days. Be interesting to see what you think.

It's a discetomy of a face in oils on a 40"x40" canvas. I've included a picture of it in my room so you can fully realise the scale.

It took me a while to see it was a human. Sorry but it isn't really my style. I don't think its bad but I don't like it sorry.

I also don't like the style, then again I don't really like painting/paintings.
But still Amazing :)

Cheers man, I'm more of a realist myself, I got an offer of £50,000 for my last painting.

This is something new that I'm trying, and the tutors at uni are lapping it up, they're trying to stop my old style out of me.

Yeah I know! It'a mental. We have all the top art collectors visit our termly exhibitions. This arab called Ally Razor (not sure if it's correct spelling) offered to buy it. I'm not in a position to sell at the moment though, I need to get into Slade School of Art. My portfolio review is in a week and a half. I'm 18.

I'm taking them in to the studio at uni and a photographer friend is going to shoot them at the end of next week. I'll post some other paintings too and this one in decent colour.
