    Absolutely gorgeous. I have one complaint: is there any way you could make it so your feed doesn’t cut off so early? I tend to skim my feeds and it’s likely I’ve missed many of your posts because your art hasn’t shown up in the feed itself. I’m much more likely to click through if I see something in the feed that grabs me…just saying (I have a lot of feeds I follow….

    But beautiful!

    Hey Pavel,

    I just discovered your work. I like your approach a lot and you ve got a very atmospheres going in in your painting. I’m craving to get that eye for light that you got in less than 2 years !! I d be curious to hear about your journey and how you studied. How s working at 2k ? I thought they didnt have any art department in Australia ? I’m from Sydney by the way talk soon

      Hey Yohann, thank you for your kind words!

      There’s really not much to my studying (I’m self self taught), it really just boils down to just practising everyday. If you look through my sketchbook on CA it has most of the things that I worked on. I found that doing colour studies from photo’s and life is probably the best way to improve colour perception. Also studying old masters is beneficial in that regard too (how they tackled light/colour and so on).

      Yes 2k does have a studio in Canberra, they did Bioshock (and other games) together with 2K Boston. I find it very fun working for them.

      Hope that helps .

    Thanks!
