Yes, you're right... he might have been a real wizard with PS.

The collaborations are quite popular. It's just not for me... I work to slow, so I never get around to do my part :(

Your symbolism and high end deepness of thought and reflection is just...astounding! Each device used in this speaks out clearly yet with a fluid amount of openness to make the spectator seem to get his/her own meaning out of it.

Collected and Cherished!

No critique my friend,just a few remark and to state that its remarkable.I can see some of the influence of James in this,being tempered with your own unique surreal religious style.When i first starting viewing your work i saw the heavy influence of Dali in your compositions.No surprise there for someone who views art in the manner which you do,but i now see a distinctive style emerging that belongs only to you.This is a very interesting piece.I am able to see here what i perceived in James works as spirit infused esoteric exoticism but distinctly Gromykoian!! Bravo my friend!!!

thank you my dear scott...for the years i have been heavily influenced by our common friend...but to find one's voice in his dress is really challanging for me...james have had a special part in me with regards to composing collage like elements ala max ernst...slowly i think i am finding my niche in this digital style as well as in my more mature woodcut inspired drawings...thanks scott for noticing

You are more than welcome.It is a joy watching your style mature and find its voice.Donning anothers dress as you say offers a new perspective and often leads to great leaps forward for those with the talent to recognize and assess rationally their own abilities as they test themselves in styles.I think you are at the point of creating homage pieces of other artists that will showcase your originality and display what is your very best form,sensing the original artists style,but also allowing viewers to experience your own interactive interpretation and have it leap to the eyes and stand on its own merits and not be seen as that of one aping anothers style but melding into a unique statement.I really enjoy the risks and challenges that you undertaking in your work.This branching out into a creators dress as you coin it can only be beneficial in your progress as a maverick who isn't intimanated or frightened of crossing new boundaries,and i think we will see your art increasing in both novelty and maturity.Its nice to see a creator not fall into the lazy style of only creating pieces that are only variations of what they have produced before.Dare yourself to be great.

You always have so well though out symbols, i could stare and wonder for ages.
