Oh Eric, this threw me down to my knees. This painting is just so, well, KICKASS.

Everything is good about this piece, from colours to composition to the mind-blowing technique. The idea is a bit scary, too, I love it!

Can you by any chance post some close-ups? I'd love to see that fur in detail.

5 stars of course, I think it's your best work to date!

Thanks BlacKeri here is one detail. First colur with regular brush , then I used 2 brush the basic one and the one who looks like the grass . At the end I add one layer on product it gave some contrast.

a little more for BlacKeri with the 2 brushes I used (90 per cent ) for the second one you have to change the orientation. Regards

I love those works that give you more than the simple pleasure of seeing. In this case the ape-human mix is reinforced by the reading concentrated expression. I can´t take my eyes out of his. Great psicological approach. Congrats!

Thanks a lot Antonio I'm really happy you like Maximum light cause I really appreciate your last work O2 and I really like your Orishas ( I just discovered I forgot to put a comment on it ) it looks like a painting . Of course I like a lot your style , colors , atmosphere ,and the poetry you bring.
