The newest image from Chris, he really has stepped up his game in the rendering department!  I'm absolutely blown away by his realistic blending of these two creatures, a bear and a blue crab, for the current Mutation Nation ArtOrder Challenge.

I adore Viktor's painterly strokes and whimsical characters.  Every piece delights the imagination and tells a great story!

You know what they say, don't turn your hobbies into work because work it becomes!

Is this true for artists?

I guess the answer depends if you prefer to see art as a passion or a hobby.
