Description Before starting my digital artwork I was doing "traditional" surrealistic paintings, just to show where I come from I posted some of the paintings out of that times.
Tempera with egg, oil and resin-oil-colours

Thanks for sharing this. I often wonder how going digital affects an artist's touch when given such a dizzying array of tools.
After looking at some of your digital paintings in your gallery, I think you've maintained your essential style, and your experience with "traditional" painting shines through.
I don't want to come off sounding anti-digital; I'm not. But I do enjoy the more painterly approach, so to speak. And I like this piece very much.

I'm working more ad more "traditional" again for the uniqueness of a traditional work.
But I won't miss my digital experience

It's wonderful that you are so comfortable in both areas.
I have an older tablet and Corel Painter, and I think I'll start using it a little after I finish something else. Originally I got the tablet with the intention of using it with my animation software, but I backed out of that... I think once I don't feel so rusty anymore, I'll be ready for that.

I've got a pretty old mac and I'm working in Ps with an old small wacom. Tried painter in earlier versions but was never so really convinced by that program, maybe it got better and more easy to handle, but most results do not lose the taste of a simulated painting.
It's good for illustration sure and has its place in graphic design

Wonderfully dream like and elegant. I love the anatomy and formation. Gorgeous lighting and fine patterns. Excellent technique.

This is my favourite one so far of your "traditional" surrealist paintings. I really like the colours in this piece!
