Love it but it’s time to lose the tags Josh. They were a nice crutch to get your work viewed by a larger audience but it’s time to embrace the pure art aspects of your craft. IMO of course.

Right, forgot about those. But it's more like the Aleutian Dreams stuff. With a statue.

I think it's a personal thing - if he left them off, people would be criticizing that too. I think it adds a unique element and defines his work - without the tags most people wouldn't be able to look at this and recognize it as a Keyes

Loving the detail. Have no clue if this has some sort of reference? If he titles it Mescaline I will fudge my pants.

Yeah, I can see that but ya could also keep going back, at least 200 odd years too for reference, which is maybe more the point. And good ol' horse punching aside, this was actually the first thing that came to mind when seeing this...
