great harsh aesthetic in your still lifes. any chance you'll experiment with fantastical creatures applying the same style?

Your Still Lifes are stunning. I especially like the looser finish, and if my experience is anything to go by so do your clients...I continue to strive for a looser look because those pieces are more appealing to both clients and myself, yet find it quite difficult to stop before tightening the piece up! Sometimes my preliminary sketch if seen is purchased rather than the finish! Wondering where you went to school?
Great work David.
