A muito tempo atrás tive o privilégio de ter um desenho seu da minha personagem que, com orgulho, postei na minha galeria. Grato por esse lindo trabalho: [link]

Caio! Lembro da gente, eu voce e o Weberson, bebericando cervejas perto da Fábrica de Quadrinhos!
Eu era um grande irresponsável naquela época! Se conseguiu ensinar qualquer coisinha pra vc, isso me deixa feliz... mestre é demais não?
Fiquei muitoi feliz por vc ter concorrido ao HQ Mix, e muito orgulhoso ao ver seus trabalhos no seu site. Voce adquiriu um estilo próprio, algo que pouca gente adquire, pois todos acabam partindo pra uma cópia tosqueira de algum grande artista (como eu). Estou muito contente!
Abraços!
Seu amigo,
MARCIO

Pô Marcião!
Cê não sabe como fiquei feliz em ver que cê mandou o "reply" aqui!
Aquela época foi muito legal e por incrível que pareça(haha), muitas das coisas que conversamos eu lembro até hoje! Por isso o mestre, não apenas no desenho mas na vida e na amizade!
Quando estiver livre, vamos marcar uma pra colocar a conversa em dia! Seria muito bom!
Um enorme abraço do amigo aqui!
Caio

Yay! I didn't know how to reach you before, I love your work and everytime I came back here to check if you were back I would see the journal you posted about finding work. I really, really wanted to help you (but couldn't get ahold of you). I represent some artists from outside of North America to help them find work with US publishers

Mech, Im thinking about give a try on the color separation business. It would be cool if we could talk in detail about it. I have some questions for you. Can I drop you an email?

to your questions. I use a wash of burnt sienna, then work from dark to light, using thin washs with turps and as you get to the lighter colours put the paint on thicker, but most of mine are still quite thin so you can see the layers of different colours. I don't really use any mediums just turps but only at the start for shadows and stuff, And would tend to use titanium white sometimes zinc but all really depends on what your painting. Don't know if thats any use to you but none the less. And your drawings are class.

Hey Ian, sorry to bother with all those questions man, but im really having headaches trying to paint something worth the effort, and your work is just absolutly gorgeous. Thanks a LOT for your explanations, and yes, its of great use for me. I have been painting even the last touches with turpentine added to the brushes, something that my teacher told me to do, but a lot of people told thats no good, i can see now, that even you DO NOT use turpentine 100% of the time. Im trying to figure it out now how to make underpainting and paint the colors at the top of the grisaille. Glazing is something that it´s not as easy as it seems. My glazing is getting opaque and i leave brushstrokes all over the paint, gotta figure it out whats going on. Again, thanks a lot for everything

thanks for the comments... on that untitled painting, I started with a mixture of cold black and trans red oxide and covered the surface. (Which was a Cennini recipe trad. rabbit skin glue/calcium board)
I wiped the image out from that... similar to how Mark Tansey works.. Then did the underpainting with a warm/cool palette. Finished with full color.
I lived in Brooklyn for 2 years, and currently live in Jersey city, NJ
talk to you later

sup man, everything doing fine around here, hope you´re doing fine too. As for Darren, I quit working for him a while back, it was just leading to nowhere and I need to move on one way or another. Hope to do a collab with you soon

Thanx a lot. Your work is impressive. Im trying to study more live models and portraits. Comic Book art is something that do not really moves me anymore. Im studying portraits and live model now. Thats how i found your work here. Did you get an academic degree of some sort like fine arts or something? Trully impressive. I could use some lessons with you if i was living in the US.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I have a fine arts degree - got it 30 years ago! - but it's not important. I've always been able to draw, as I suspect you have, and with your skills I'm sure you'll find the transition to portraits and live models relatively straightforward. I work almost exclusively digitally now, and, if you haven't already seen them, there are some step by step workthroughs on the digital page of my website:

I'll look forward to seeing your new work.

your work is really amazing
I wish we lived in a world where people with great talent like you wouldn't have to worry about petty monitary compensation.
I wish you best of luck in the future.

Thanks a lot for kindly words Yhuangl.
Unfortunally, thats the truth, its cruel but its the truth. Can you imagine how many people quit drawing, painting, palying a instrument to work in a bank, or to be a layer?
Thanx a lot for the encouragement! I really appreciate that!
