Traditional Art Day Feature

So we're supposed to feature a great traditional artist, huh? Tough choice...

There are many traditional aritsts here on DA who blew my mind, be it with their technique, vision, or ideas. This is just one of them. This guy just takes draftsmanship to a whole new level. His pieces make me feel inadequate, but give me enormous motivation to practice and impress me immensly. I was very impressed with his project to draw every outfit Padme was wearing in the First three Star Wars episodes. You gotta appreciate this kind of dedication and persistence! So here he is:



jasonpal.deviantart.com/art/Ma… - one of his color paintings. I love the way he achieved a high level of realism but still maintained a *traditional art* feel (hard to explain it properly)

jasonpal.deviantart.com/art/Ad… - what can I say, really? Just look at it!

jasonpal.deviantart.com/art/Ra… gotta love the way the weightless material of the rainbow dress contrasts with the metal armbands. Fantastic technique!
