Artist's Comments

This is Ashavan. He's a badass. He probably eats children.

This painting was an experiment in a really different approach to painting than I usually take.

I limited myself to one layer and started laying down opposite colors and light/dark values until something started to "emerge" from it. I refined and refined until I worked it up into something I was happy with.

It was weird working without reference or a base sketch, but I found it REALLY liberating to just put everything on one layer and just PAINT instead of manage layers and try to get them to all "play nice" together visually. I'm definitely doing another using this method soon, it was just so much fun!

Amazing work, and without any reference, wow.
Love his expression.

Awesome picture! As far as eating babies is concerned, I don't think so. My first thought was Priest, but I've been wrong before.

WOW amazing painting 8D.. I'm not sure who Ashavan is but he looks like snape... and in that case i would agree that he probably eats babies XDDDD

While you see one person trash, I see the life of a person who was born lived and died. Who sweat in the sun and shivered in the cold. It is only when no one remembers you are you lost. For this... this is a true death.
