This work reminds me of street art, because of the mixture of drawn and realistic images.
Great work!

Reminds me a bit of 1997 era Stanley Donwood work. Minimal, yet interesting. 

Nice work.

I see some really good things happening in these pieces. The way that you assemble the images is very intriguing. The hands and the molecule pieces strike me. Thanks for posting.

Critique:
I feel that you need to push the work some more. May be it is the white background that is giving me this unresolved feeling. Possibly put some subtle texture in the white background. Somehow you could put some more transition between the images. They are a little to separate.

[Abe Honest]

Thankyou for comments Adam
Much appreciated.

Have you checked my other work on the links.
I have moved on from these. i needed the images to breathe a bit more. with my old work, there is a lot going on in them and i needed to adjust slightly, hence the white background in places on the new canvasses.
I feel it gives a bit more balance to the pieces and allows the viewer to have their own interpretation on an individual level.

Thanks

Abe

I'm attracted to the 2nnd one the most, but I love the space in the 3rd one.

your lines are crazy clean...like something you'd see in some sort of medical book.

[Abe Honest]

Thanx Winfred.
Much appreciated.

I am fascinated with diagrams and stuff with the anatomy. It is associated with my work and meaning. It all fits in nicely.

[nick kontos]

i really like your work. in the images I saw i was pleased with the white space verses the limited color. I'm a very abstract looker and believer and looking at your work, even though there is apparent imagery I created and saw a lot more things then there was. Everything starts from the sketch book. wether your a painter or do collages. what ever your putting down is a description of you and that is what separates us all. i would like to see some more of your raw sketch book  images.

Cool work Abe. Do you show anywhere in San Francisco your work seem really familiar.
