What are your influences, if I may ask?

I mean, what are your influences artistically? What painters or other artists inspire you and influence your style?

Thanks for the compliment. My admiration started with the Renaissance ( Michelangelo, Caravaggio, etc ) then the impressionists ( Degas, Monet ). Both eras for their use of highlights in a scene. More currently, with my focus still being highlighting a scene would be Kinkade and more recently Kevin Hill ( a young and talented artist that utilizes highlights in his paintings to make the scene come alive)

I thought I detected a bit of Maxfield Parrish in your style.

Great job!

The colours and lines are subtle and soft, perfect for this scene.
I've never been able to understand how artists accomplish such exquisite things with paints. Perhaps that's a good thing - adds to the effect.

For sure fates and fame,
But the men that drink the blood of God
Go singing to their shame."
