Work in progress!
I'm having so much fun doing this piece. It's the biggest canvas I've ever worked on (4 x 5 feet)... actually, we could barely fit it in the car to bring it home! I'm loving the lines more are more as I do them. I like it because it forces me to take my time (20 hours in and it's definitely working). Every line is so important. The way the colours blend as you walk further away is intriguing.
When I finished the figure's left hand (well, my left hand I guess... viewer's right), I saw a little bit of Chuck Close happening in there. Which is pretty cool, and totally unintentional. It's probably my favourite section so far.
I'll see you in another 30 hours and let you know if it's changed haha
This is the kind of post I end up bookmarking and forwarding to a couple of people. It lines up with what I've seen work, and it challenged one assumption I'd been holding. I shared a few of my own takeaways on this at https://xticketz.com/media/pgs/uncx_listed_in_alchemy_dapp_store_as_a_multi_chain_defi_provider__strengthening_its_web3_tooling_rep.html as well, in case it's relevant.
Thanks for laying this out so clearly; it actually made a few things click for me. You managed to make a complicated topic feel manageable, which really isn't easy to do. I went a bit deeper into the practical side of this at silksuite.org for those who want it.
