absolutely astounding
i have to admit, with your simplistic digital work (which is quite effective, dont get me wrong), i never saw something as technically resolved as this.
much respect.

I wish I could enlarge the piece even further so I could see all the thrilling details. Love the Bosch-like imagery. What are the objects on the border? Squid? Plants? Roots? Is this pencil? It is so crisp.

Wonderful!

beautifully done as usual- and a very effective self portrait I think- I love the absinthe bottles, the bat, all those tiny little details. your face is really well done, I love the expression- and that beard :D the books in the background were a great idea- genius way of getting in your favorite books... and of course who can't love all your little sketchbook friends... heh... amazing as usual.
