While art is always going to be subjective that doesen't mean all art is the same quality and skill. I think good art draws from the masters. This could be the figure, color, a symmetrical balance, line quality, texture, weather its realistic or just pleasing.I'm not a big fan of Ron and Waynes work. Mostly i have a big issues with how they make their faces. Faces have always been the center. Its what we look at first, and i think the faces should be the BEST part of the art piece. thier are some drawings of Ron and Sayne that really turn me off before I have had a chance to fully explore their painting. They know their anatomy more or less, but i'm just really put off by their work. I'm a big anime but also a big fan of classic fantasy artwork. I wouldn't call their work anime. I really don't know what to call it.Waynes coloring is very unrealistic. Not that he tried for realistic and failed, but i find the way he uses very dark shading with very light shading, with both having hard edges that clash with the majority of the color. Its very difficult on the eyes. it breaks the flow. I commend him though for trying a very different style.Ron also has a non realistic paint style, and given some more work could be really cool, but I think it has too much color isolation, and could use more environmental influence. I think color isolation can work, but its hard to control and really the color isolation has to be controlled and used adventitiously.i think his druid picture is pretty nice though, but i think the colors could still stand to speak more to echother. I wish the wolf was more sleekI realize that art is subjective and everyone is entitled to their opinion, and that with each generation of art, their will be many that reject its changes, so it my opinion may just be thus.their are many non realistic styles that i do like however. I'm sure their must be people that like Wayne and Rons styles, or else they wouldn't be featured so much.I would really like to see their under drawings. I wonder if i would like them and if its only how they are colored that influences my taste.I'm a big sap for some of the older styles of fantasy art. yeah sorry for the long unnecessary post. I may clean it up later.*edit*mhacdebhandia, do you have a link to any of rons sepia art?</blockquote>
