Howdy, I found you during search engine optimization for myself, Matthew Martin on SaatchiArt.com which is my sales site and I'm known around here to most as KcPixelator and have been here since the first attempt at creating a digital painting ever in May of 2022 which I entitled, Metrofantascape and which birthed a number of progressions posted in my gallery of Deviations which is currently at around 105 after my first year of effort and I only mention this because now and then by accident I bump into an image the quality and expertise of which I do aspire to emulate and attain and there have been several members who have advised along my journey thus far, and it's been a fun ride and today I can say that the early days of doubting my own ability to persist and to become successful no longer permeate my thinking, and yet I know that the process of learning is never ending and so consider myself fortunate that I continue to bump into people who are more skilled and more learned and more reputable to analyze and study, which I feel strongly happened in this case. I would be thrilled if there is any advice or critique you may be willing to impart to me as a year 1 student who is completely self taught from software to youtube tutorials to the process of painting to point of sale, in order that I may improve my appeal and commercial viability in the marketplace. If you can find the time to review my work and process I am generally primarily at SaatchiArt.com/KcPixelator which searches for Matthew Martin on SaatchiArt.com leads to also and of course DeviantArt.com/KcPixelator is for the mothership, DA. I appreciate any insight you may offer and at your leisure of course. Your work is incredible. And did you every notice how many of us are creators? Matthew Martin's that is. You are Matthew D and I am Matthew R, which is a distinction within the parameters of SEO that fails to provide the degree of separation we all seek otherwise, I would have neve known your were on Deviant Art at all.

This is Metrofantascape, my first project which is entirely standard stock MS Paint which came preinstalled on my laptop. I am now a Krita 1 thru 5 enthusiast with som GIMP mixed in on occasion, although I have found that GIMP creates too much realism and that my results appear to lack a level of artistic expression which the viewer may consider to be a doctored photo as opposed to being painted buy traditional paint and brush on canvas means. Oh well. Wish you continued success. And with your permission I am adding you to my watch list. Much appreciated.
