Human hand and soul; no AI or anything else like that. Work in lots of mediums, from oil painting to pixel art, primarily and almost entirely from imagination.

On second thought I will reveal a portion of the first painting, without showing too much:
My project is underway. It must've been around 2 years since I first started seriously developing the main ideas behind it, alongside building up my skills to a satisfactory level. I won't reveal it yet, but what I will reveal is that it's going to be a series of oil paintings.

In truth it's more than that of, but I don't want to get ahead of myself. One painting is basically complete and another is half-way there, but I need a few more before I can start revealing them; both to truly cement what I'm making as my own, and to give a broader sense of..

..what I'm trying to express. It will be obvious when you see it, I think.

I see The Algorithm didn't like this one, here's a closeup anyway:
Had a dream a couple of weeks ago of stumbling upon a fragment of a really high quality Roman fresco, one that I've never seen before but similar to the ones from Herculaneum. Felt compelled to bring it to life. The face and torso are the closest to what I saw.

The environment was an afterthought, and with the basket it was a loose memory (just remembered a similar weave type pattern). The painting itself was done almost entirely from imagination, with only the leg requiring a bit of refreshing. Had to delve into leg anatomy a bit

What I love about the art of the early renaissance is the precision and finality that's inherent to it. This is the reason I perfer it in many ways to the later manneristic and baroque developments, and beyond, where artworks become looser and lose this sense of total finish.

It's also the reason why I really like ancient Egyptian art, even though it's very simplistic and formulaic artistically. In any case, there is room for looseness in my estimation but it should not be used to cut corners.

I am writing a series of short articles on my Patreon about the biggest gaming exploit I ever managed to pull off: I finally beat The City of the Dark Obelisk – Extended Edition! I understand why you don’t believe me. Link in the comments, if you are curious.

Timelapse of the Piazzetta study, no zooming and moving this time around. Besides a very good composition, there's a certain "atmospheric" quality to this work that I want to lean into a bit more with my own art. Trying to find the right balance.

Quick sketch for fun. Found those Mycenaean boar tusk helmets pretty interesting.

Timelapse of the Titian study. A little jumpy but hopefully not too bad for you guys. Will have to look into making timelapses without the zooming and all that type of movement.

Titian study. I have to admit that I never really liked Titian, but over the past year—as I started seriously analysing different artists' work—he's really grown on me. I think I'll do another 1 or 2 of these, and that'll be it for this bout of studies.
