PROGRESS...

I had to do something radical and counter-intuitive to bring it alive, so I added some black lines, and it's really starting to get somewhere now. Just a few more adjustments to make, then it's finished...

VERSION 27.0...AND COUNTING.

Isolated parts of this acrylic piece are starting to look great. Paintings can have personalities of their own, and they don't make it easy for the artist. It can take weeks of trial and error to wrestle one into shape. 



Don't forget, if you want one, email me at alexik-artist@hotmail.co.uk.

SNEAK PREVIEW #1

Postcard series inspired by New York, which I may feature in the forthcoming 'urban' edition of MONOBLOG ( which now has a revised release date of sometime in September 2013 ).




More to come...stay tuned.


SNEAK PREVIEW #2


The Mark I version had a lot of fans, but hopefully they won't be too upset with the final version...whenever that happens. It definitely is not finished.

Here's some close-ups ( below ) of the same pic, as it is currently...





Part of the pink section looks interesting...
