Interesting series, im my opinion.
I've the feeling it hasn't been really understood...

Thanks Thaldir .
Can you tell me more about "I've the feeling it hasn't been really understood..."

[Thaldir]

Well, Eric, I may be wrong myself, but given the name the series has: "Rorch'art", I think you somehow got inspired by the Rorschach inkstain test, abstract shapes that then you later worked to 'bring out' the subject, is this so?

I think it's a fascinating approach, one that (in case you are interested) was also used by one of the greatest Chinese modern painters, Chang Dai-chien.

it hasn't been really understood... referred to the somewhat limited reaction I saw here...

[scala]

You probably right Tiziano it's probably too personnal to bring interest .
I'm gonna have a look to Chang Dai-chien .
And it's hopefull I don't show all my research the reaction would be more limited .

Anyway thanks for your interest .

[Thaldir]

Without research and experiments art dies.
Don't be discouraged my friend, always onwards!:thumbsup:

The Chinese technique is called pomo (splashed ink) or pomo pocai (splashed ink and splashed color).

[SteevieWoo]

Aw cute! what moves you to paint a kissy redhead piggy is beyond my lame, square imagination, that's why I like your latest paintings so much! They're personal fun and direct. you have joy with them and it shows.

Great Pics!:thumbsup:

I always enjoy your work, Eric - whether I "understand" or not they are always pleasing to me. This one is no exception! He's a cute little guy! Nice work - thanks for posting this series! :)

I like the fact that it looks and feels very much like oil-paint. I can almost smell it AHHH! :)

Loved your Sarko6 character as well!

Hello Eric, I gave you 5* because I think this image deserves more than 3 and needs to be looked at.

That being said I wish you sould've refined it, some sharp highlights to give more texture throughout would've really helped to take this piece to the next level. Anyways keep up the great work, I really like it.
