I'm getting a slight Francisco Goya vibe from it. Probably the color arrangement since the style doesn't entirely gel, obviously.

I kinda like Cole.

I've already got this saved from it being posted before in threads over the years, absolutely love it. Love all the pics in the thread, would be good to see >>707064 and >>706974 in hi res.

OP is incredible in particular

hmm ye looking this and the associated artists up on wikipedia (i'd never heard of the artists or the school before, got a few saved from old threads like I said though) this is w/o doubt some of the best art i've ever laid eyes on tbh

>>707292

pretty incredible detail. I took some crappy art appreciation class in college and I remember having to write paragraphs about stuff like Ice T superimposed on some work of a king on a throne. cancer
