Very nice one sneed, do you paint with very thinned out oil over a drawing? It looks like thats what you do in a lot of your paintings? Also are you using Mir Artist Mediterranean Colors?

Yeah. . . you are on it
the paints are whatever I can grab

nice, thanks for the info, are you using turpenoid to thin it?

That would be risky because it may make the surface sticky ( interesting resultts , though)
maybe for detail
I use my fingers and tissue paper to scrap off paint

You must be the main source of income for half the worlds gesso and paint production. You seem to use a lot of it and I mean a lot.
I guess it doesn't matter as much seeing how awesome you're paintings turn out every time.
I salute you gessoman!

Cool- I'll have to check out the books. How big is it in real life? One random question...do you pronounce gesso as guess-oh or jess-oh?

Pretty small. . . I haven't cropped it out yet
I guess so

Very nice!
A sandstorm, dust, utter concentration, a sliver of blue sky, a calm descends, silence... and then the shot.

The brushstrokes are amazing, because they really enhance the kinetic movement and atmosphere in the image. Amazing work.

Love the style, as always. I think it's especially fitting for the Dark Tower and Roland Deschain.
