some new color works and a B&W I did recently. trying things at the moment. no story for these images... except, the BW is a return to my roots, french comic books.

edit : sorry about the subject header, I just realised it sounds a bit kinky

I really like the brush strokes of the colored pictures. Has a very Rockwell/Sargent feel to them. No crits, but thanks for sharing.

Very nice developed natural looking chars, excellent face expressions. Thumbs up for the elder men standing in queue in front of a p0rn shop waiting for the arrival of the brand new "Emily strokes back - and forth, again and again" vids.

All very good pictures but my fav is the 2nd one. Nothing beats good black and white art

[Ornicar]

Impressionnant...... vraiment tr�s impressionnant
Autant sur ton travail des masse, de la lumi�re, de la couleur.... que sur celui de la ligne claire.
tr�s tr�s classe.


Very very good

[Ian Jones]

Cool stuff! Colours are really nice. The painterly look is pretty effective. I really like the forms. You have some great drawing skills! Keep it up!

[eyewoo]

Very nice work... and I the pictures on your website are just wonderful!

[oDD]

the first one is simply amazing

[Gimbal8]

Well holy mother of wow...yet another person at Sijun for me to envy.

[jr]

[egerie]

Very nice stuff Beet! really like the loose flowy style you have going.

[Torstein Nordstrand]

Simply delicious.

[Francis]

Beet, those are great - do you have any comic stuff from your old days? I would love to see that.

Did you have reference for the woman?

[Lunatique]

Wow, been a while since you posted anything. These are gorgeous. *drools*

Looks like you love the palette knife in Painter as much as I do.

[jayceeL]

the first one with the older gentlemen is absolutely stunningly painted!!!!

But all of them are first class paintings....

ooh, lots of replies. thanks for the nice commments, ppl ;
One thing strikes me, most people dig that Oldmen image; I wasn't going to post it because I wasn't happy with it. I only did so,because a friend told me to. It's happening so often, I'm not going to try to understand. A nice surprise, in that case, though.

James Bradford: I like them both. I first learned about Sargent on this forum, actually( old spooge thread ). Thanks!
[666]Flat: projecting your fantasy on this very image, Bravo, you got imagination
Ornicar: merci. hope your website will be up soon. keep on posting here.
Gimbal8: Don't spend too much time on envy, transform it into inspiration to work on your own stuff, that's way better. thanks !
Jr: Yeah, I worked on many cards games -never on Magic, though.
Egerie: Merci. I did use photos as ref for the colored one, none for the BW. Only solution while working on a computer. The trick would be to work from life, in parallel to this.
Francis: glad to see you're back at posting. Oh, What I meant is, I read my share of them comicbooks as a kid ( I wasn't that much into velasquez and co, then), but I haven't actually worked on any (so far). sorry, nothing to show ya. Reference : yeah, my own photo. I Hope to move soon to live painting, actually.
Lunatique: Err, I only discovered the palette knife last week, these must be the only two images I ever used it, as an experimentation
