In the best way, this looks like vintage album art!

Love the piece.

How long does something like this take?

Haven't tried my hand painting yet. Either way Thanks :)

Thank you! This took 4 - 5 hours. For once I can answer that question because I did it in one day!

You paint well but your signature is distracting.

It is. Was thinking about what to do with that.

Unfortunately no one has ever taught me how to sign... but sometimes I don't like how the signature looks, like here. Is it ok to have two different signatures? And what if you as an artist suddenly just change it completely?

I see, I'll keep that in mind in the future :) I've been a bit confused about the whole signature thing. Some are telling me to make it small and not easy to see, others tell me to make it as visible as possible, to highlight it.... Visible while still blending in sounds like a good idea!

Thanks, I did darken it so it's a little less visible, better than this at least. Usually there are more things happening in my paintings so it's easier. Always learning something new!
