You have a wonderful understanding of colour and blending. These are some of the best in the realism line that I’ve seen. Beautiful work, talented artist.

By the way, welcome to Redbubble.

oh my god….fantastic…did you use and airbrush for this one?!

The background is airbrushed, and the foreground is hand painted, I did this to emphasize the details and to create space by blurring the background and fine tuning the foreground. Thanks for your comments!
