Hey, nice use of lush colors. Maybe a little vague, but that might be what you wanted?

i'd definitely love to see you go further with some of these pics. but then i appreciate that you know when to stop.

This is really cool. It's very expressive. I also love the colors and the depth. Keep it up

Refine it more, and add detail.

Because you're base shapes seem reasonably perfect it would make an exceptional piece.

marvellous! light is really working in this one. that combined with your colors... yep, it's all great.

Wow! This is sooo cool

hi everyone...

lunatique: thank you. the vague look was meant. i wanted to do something simple. just having the right shape at the right place without getting into too much details. that's it

the_monkey: thanks. made with painter. i might work on a tutorial soon. i'll keep you informed.
isric: a positive message from you means a lot. thanks.
darkglade: thanks for your comment. as i said earlier i didn't want to do some kind of photorealistic piece. it was more about catching my face and the atomosphere quickly. but i might work on some detailled selfportrait.
gecko: thank you very much. you know that feeling... when e.g you're painting on a canvas, and you just like how it is even if some will find an arguable unfinished look... i might be wrong, but sometimes i just feel like doing it this way...

zorglub: thank you man. (your nickname always makes me smile, i don't know why... where is it from again? an old movie, eh?)
greenpeach: thanks!

agent44: thank you very much.
burnout: thanks. well, i guess it's just the way i work when i paint using real media... i don't feel that i need to get too detailed... and you know, when you work on big canvas, it just would not be possible (at least for me... the lazy bum) to spend 1 hour on every squared inch/centimeter. to my eyes, it's just about getting the mood right... again i might be wrong

janne: THA(T)NKS!
daijoobu: thank you.

thank you all for the replies.
