I love his pencil drawings, especially the one of Lillian Gish. Thanks for the headsup!

Ugh, the elevator music is kind of irritating. Took too long to load even the first page on dialup - will try later from friends broadband.

He is incredible. Prooves that to get good you have to have the skill to start with, but the time to polish it. He says he practices from 4 hours to 12 hours every day! Oh I wish.

I don't discuss his technique, he is really mastering all painting techniques, but, geeesss.... the images are really boring and "poserish". It seems that he've done cut-and-paste of beautiful women in fantasy landscapes, most of the time the subject and the background don't fit. He is mixing worst parts of pre raphaelites, neogothic and glamour styles. Good for commercials or Harmony book collections (don't know if you have the Harmony collection in US).

That could be taken as a compliment for Poser. but I don't think I will. I hear what you're saying. I was taken by his technical skill, (which I think is fantastic, especially his coloured pencil work) rather than artistic imagination. If I could draw in the real world 1% as good as that, I'd be happy. Beautiful women in fantasy landscape, and what's wrong with that? ;-)

nothing against beautiful women and fantasy landscapes, but most of the time the 2 subjects are put together without style. (like most of poser images). Nothing against his skill, but I think everyone can manage a skill, but not everyone can produce art. that's it.

There are some things there I'm glad to have seen and definetly some techniques I'd like to incorporate. Thanks Zhann. (Disabling right click always annoys me though, if I want it I'll still get it - not that that's the point - just let me open multiple windows so I can look at the work side by side...)

His work is beautiful but someone really needs to teach him (or whoever the webmaster is) about how to design a user-friendly website. I get too annoyed before I've barely looked around.

That is beyond good, it's otherworldly. Thanks for sharing :-)
