All those smirky looks, kind of like porcelain. The poor frontman seems to have lost his grip...
This is tasty.

My gorsh! Your wonderful pictures NEVER cease to amaze me! Makes my head hurt just trying to imagine how you can create such beautiful art with nothing more than a simple pencil and pen........ if i stand next to you ya think some of that talent will rub off on me??
I do love your concept in this, each face has its own different story hidden behind their fragile skins, hung up for all to see, or at least TRY to see. I especially like the wrinkled face that is degraded far more than the others, i'd be willing to bet it's seen far more days than the others.
Well i think i'm doing that 'ramble' deal i always tend to do so i'll catchy myself before it goes any further.
Lovely pic, wonderfully crafted, happy that me and so many others could inspire you to create another brilliant masterpiece.

It's good to see work from you again, I'm vastly behind in keeping up with viewing on this site.. though of my notifications of who is doing work you are one of a small few i most look forward to and leap for first..
This picture strikes me as a kind of 'rebirth' of the artist.. kind of a resurrection, almost.. I like how the faces kind of go from more aged and antique to refreshed and youthful on the left in a way..
an inspiring piece.. Your surreal style is really quite right up my alley

Paulo, if I may say so, you have certainly been bringing the heat as of late. I find it hard not to comment on your drawings when they appear in my inbox.
I really like the texture you've achieved in the faces. For some reason it makes them look like they're made of moss or something, which sort of reinforces the concept for me.
Keep it up. I'll continue to live vicariously though your art until I can get myself working again.

Wow, great detail. The texture of the skin in the face on the right is excellent, and the fraying of the strap - wonderful! Lovely work. You're just as good with a pencil as with a pen. I love the intricate winding of the branches around each other too.

This is lovely. You're just as kick-arse with a pencil as you are with that magical ballpoint pen.... Grrrr.... Annoying bloke. I love the fragility of the piece; the frayed ropes, and the way the faces look like thin eggshells about to crack... they seem to add an extra element of drama to the piece. Which is hardly needed, with all the masks... anyway, I'll shut up now. But awesome work.
