Im gonna try and copy your style with the ink, we're experimenting on the different textures and ways you could do to make an emotional painting (if that made sense) lol and try to put more colours in it, it will be a canvas painting, i will scan it and upload it on here when i'm done, thats if you aprrove of me using your picture =]

Sure thing, I don't mind you using my work as a reference so long as I'm credited
I might do a sort of how-to with inks some time to explain how the ink was done, I've been getting a lot of questions about it (it's basically just using a spray bottle and acrylic ink) so if you wanted to get the jist of it I'd probably have it done in the next week or so.
If you're thinking of using ink, I highly suggest not doing it on canvas - unprimed, the ink will just soak into the fibres and go all fuzzy and useless-like, and primed the ink will just pool in the weaves and might give you a texture you don't want. If you want to work with ink, paper is usually the best place to start.
Hope that wasn't an uncalled-for intrustion of information or anything...
Thanks again for asking, too!

Wow, dude thanks! lol
I was seriously thinking it wont work with the canvas but I thought i;d try anyway but now thanks for the warning !
I don't know how the paper will work since i was going to use a pretty huge canvas.. >.<
I'll think of something =] thanks again!

Weeeeelllll art stores sell high-quality paper in individual sheets and some of them are pretty big (though expensive, but very worth it.) Some places also sell paper off a roll, meaning a virtually unlimited size.

Amazing piece, it's so chaotic, full of emotion and rage and violence. I love how many elements it has and how they all make this huge emotional mess. Great work.
