    No! and No! Love it.

    Wow. Wanna be rediculously similar to Roy Lichtenstein? Nah, but seriously, nice art.

  • Chris  Wahl

    Chris Wahl

    Bryan, it is an homage to Roy’s work (which in turn is an homage to romance comics). While it is based on Lichtenstein’s pop art style it is 100% my art and idea. You’ll find nothing similar to this in his body of work.

  • Per Ove Sleen

    This looks nothing like Roy Lichtenstein, he worked mostly in oil and acrylics, and it is easy to see the difference.
    To me this looks totally original, and it’s a great picture…

  • Bryan Davidson

    I know it’s original art. I wasn’t critisizing, that was just my first impression on seeing it. I really admire your art, and having studied Lichtenstein for my year 12 Studio Arts, I know I can’t make anything like this, to anywhere near this quality. You are awesome.

  • Chris  Wahl

    Bryan- Sorry mate. Just explaining my intentions (and covering my arse)
    I know you weren’t critisizing, it was just inevitable that someone would bring up the comparison and I had my little disclaimer ready to go when it surfaced.

    Seriously though, thanks for your comments.

    Kitsmumma and Per Ove Sleen- Thanks!

    ...Hmmm…the expression on his face tells me “maybe not” to her question too. Good idea, well executed…hopefully attitudes have changed in this day and age.

    Roy Lichtenstein was a GOD (at least to me anyway…), there’s no harm in taking inspiration from his work in my opinion :) Besides he copied panels from DC comics (some of the lesser known ones) and reworked them. So yeah… I forgot my point there…. XD

    I love her hair and his expression, the punch line is fantastic too! I really do enjoy that you’ve chosen to adopt this style for the portayal of a fifties couple. Did you hand letter this? If not, I’d like to know where you got it pleeease :)

    Thanks all!

    bicozikan- This was handlettered, but a few years back I created a computer font based on his comicbook handwriting. I’ll BM you about it.

    I don’t remember those questions being asked in my comics! Usually it was something more like:

    “Why does he remind me of The Masked Avenger?”
    “Did I do up my fly after that last costume change?”
