Ian Francis

I learned about Ian Francis a bit over a year ago. Came upon a really cool section of his website where you can see the process of how one painting is done. From beginning to end. I definitely dig the contrast of tight and lose work within the same piece. My work certainly is not nearly as good or like his, but that's something I always make sure to do in all my pieces as well. Something about a "finished" look that really bugs the fuck out of me. It seems too forced. There should be breathing room. You know? A thing alive, is never perfect.
