So, I’m quite sure how it happened (I blame my bloated-beyond-all-measure Google Reader RSS feed), but somehow I found a tab open with Colin Chillag’s flickr account.
My first thought was “Who is this guy?” and then as I looked at the images, my second thought was, “… Holy crap!”
Check this out. His painting entitled “An erroneous model”:
Oh, and here’s a DETAIL:
I have no idea who this guy is, but he’s amazing. I hope people buy his work and he becomes famous etc.
The whole point of this post was that I realized, as I looked at this incredible painting and its detail, that I have an attention span the size of a flea.
I am hard pressed to draw a sketch every day– how could I sit down and paint something this amazing? I think I might be bored with the idea by the time I was done. But it’s imperative that the finished works be created. How does one maintain faith and interest in one’s vision throughout the entire creation of a work of art? I hope I find out…
