Ditto. The composition is really balanced without being jam-packed full of characters.

Anyone know if these are going to make it online, cause Id like to grab one?

Rumored to be today, but no word yet from Ken/SpokeArt.
Hoping it's today so I can combine shipping with the Budich True Detective timed release.

Care to elaborate?

Sure - PNF = "Page Not Found 404" = Spoke-Art In Dreams drop not up yet. Nothing bad if that's what you were after. I don't usually post. I'm just bored waiting for this drop.

Thanks for clarifying.

I do agree Budich's work on this one and the Dune piece is above par compared with a few of his more recent releases like Tears In The Rain which was a little disappointing. I've read a number of posts where his critics appear to be saying that he is copying Stout which I think is off-base and whether you like one above the other is really a matter of personal taste. I actually like Budich's thrifting and polishing in his compositions compared with Stout's more cluttered and rough-hewn approach. I also prefer the18x24 format versus 24x36. Yep, I'm pretty bored...

I think the line-work in the shading of the faces borrows more from Martin Ansin in this case, but I like the print regardless. Looks like I'm pretty bored, too.

I think in any art form it's very difficult to be entirely original; however, if you are going to take liberty with another artist's particular style there should be new elements introduced which elevate the overall spectrum of a particular style. Wow...now I must be drunk!!!

Oh, and I agree with your Ansin comment - this one kind of looks like it's been out for an evening with his Planet of the Apes piece.

These are up on Spoke Arts site now for anyone interested.

Not a Twin Peaks fan, but this is a nice looking print. I like that it was printed on yellow paper.
