Jesus Christ, never heard of him but definitely looking into now.

Painting usually take roughly 3 years to do for him since they are pretty huge.

he's skilled but I never get why some artists draw a huge mess with no contrast whatsoever.

Those abstract fantasy landscapes are bland as fuck to me. Not saying it's bad tho

the composition is a mess, everything is over-detailed leading to my eyes being bounced around like a ball in a ping pong match. Sure it's noteworthy, sure its colors are pretty and it is very detailed, but it's not really worth it in the end, he could have stopped halfway in without doing all the tiny renderings and dots and the picture would be better for it

I can understand why it gets people erect tho

I think that's the point however. You have to remember the scale of these painting are pretty fucking big.
