Mind blowing! Has the first class vibes. I think it's creepy enough to hang anywhere and start conversations like Edvard Munch's The Scream.
wow i love that comparison to a fine art piece such as Munch's The Scream, Marcus! It does have a certain creepy nature to it, could see it being a conversation starter for sure!
This is a beauty. Everything about it is perfect. So many framing options! Congrats!
thanks bud!! def frameworthy!!! and not going to take up a ton of wall space either, love it ;)
I don't know, I mean, I guess it's alright if you're into this sort of thing. 🤪
haha, yea...not bad for "just a comic artist" ..... :-o
all kidding aside this is already one of my favorite pieces in the collectiom, thanks again man!
This has got to look so insanely good in person. It is blowing me away seeing it on CAF, but man this is one that you have got to frame so you can see it every day. Huge congrats!
absolutely Kent!! thanks for the comment. I'm already sort of working through frame ideas, prob will just keep it simple and let the piece do all the talking (and no colors obviously). will def be a piece worth looking at every day! thank you :)
Great looking Prof X illustration, trippy for sure, congrats!
Loved all these portraits that Mike did for the auction! Glad I picked up one, wish I could've bought more...
Thanks Tony! You and me both lol. I was def eyeing that Jean Grey to pair with the Xavier (per Ruben's suggestion) but ultimately only picked up 1 cause I already spent too much at that point. It happens ha! ;)
So good. Atruly indicative Prof X example, as well as a Perkins example. Outstanding pure illustration and love those vertigo-ish lines in the back. Congrats!
Unique and intense take on Prof X! Super execution and a strong artistic statement
Zounds! I have -no- idea why I have not commented on this beauty already (perhaps the idea had been in my head... until some unseen force exerted itself upon my subconscious, which withered like so much sun-beaten lettuce!), but I -love- this, big time. I love the gorgeous composition here (half wavy, half pitch black), which provides an arresting visual background upon which Mike can weave his magic. I love how open the top half of the piece feels and how closed-in the bottom feels (with that fantastic use of negative space to frame Chuck's head with his arms). I love the scratchy lines Mike uses to render Xavier's face, popping the eyes, and I love how Mike leaves the top of the Prof's head perfectly (almost blindingly) white, like a brilliant beacon of power emanating from his noggin. But the thing I love the most might be the long pinky nail on Chucky's left hand. Does Professor X not keep his fingernails trimmed neatly? Is he "that guy"? It had never even crossed my mind before, and now I can't think of anything else (see? I'm telling you: withered lettuce! :) )!
Gorgeous piece, Kavi! Mike is a wizard! Congrats on the great score!
