Holy crap, Pete. That art is friggin' GORGEOUS.
Not bad for thirty minutes of painting, eh? I'd tell you how I did it but THEN I'D HAVE TO KILL YOU. Or not, your choice.

Oh blimey.
Anyway, a quick question - a request for fresh eyes, really. The point on the right of the image, at the level of the bridge, where the strokes get smaller, is anyone bothered by those smaller strokes? Do they seem cluttered and would benefit from the same clean sweeping effect that the rest of the image has? Anyone? Bueller?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
The whole thing is so ridiculously friggin' beautiful that I for one could not possibly care less about small strokes on one side. I had to go back and look at it again to even see what you were talking about, and even then I was too overwhelmed with the pretty.
Felicitations on your natal day!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I never would have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. Personally, it doesn't bother me -- I think the variations make it look more hand-painted, if that makes sense.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Doesn't bother me. In fact, I think the variety in stroke sizes is a good thing. Great job, Pete!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

They look like water splashing on the shore, which I'm pretty sure fits with a picture of a bridge.
Stop obsessing. It looks great.

Huh. I never even would have noticed until you pointed it out, AND NOW IT'S ALL I CAN LOOK AT! but I still think it's friggin' gorgeous.

Have I mentioned that I frequently threaten to write that on his hand?

Obsessing is what I do. It's the only way to make art better.
My own opinion was that the variety was good but then again, so is cohesion. Being as I was 50/50 I thought I'd see what y'all thought. I guess I'll leave it as is.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

That was my take, as well. I thought it was deliberate.

Yep. What He Said.
