I loved seeing your father´s work and love seeing the way it inspired your first works and how you have evolved from there. Wonderful post!

Marvelous.....and refreshingly deep. Thank you for sharing. Upvoted & Resteemed :)

Makes me want to go there and check it out... climb into the small places.. but it also scares me a great deal, as i mentioned before.
This is one of the best i have seen from you Peter! The colors are .. lock of a better word: GREAT !

Thank you @agneslaczo! Glad to hear you like it! :-)

You have no taste for art lady. Shame on you for flagging my posts when all I am doing is promoting my art.

love them all.. cool to see what your father made!!

Thanks @erikbolding! You can see his other work here: https://www.facebook.com/jaroslav.gric/

checked it out... you are both the type of paintstaking long works :-)

Awesome piece! I love to see your use of a different color palate on this one, a little more "living nature" than the usual. The detail images on this post are fantastic as well, bringing to light things I didn't see on the overall photo. Marvelous details! I also see that Death Star type object hiding in the skyline. ☺️ "That's no moon..."
Once more, I must say "bravo!"

Thank you @aksounder! :-)

I love that you had your father's work to inspire you. I had an Aunt who painted who inspired me and my Grandmother took up painting in her 80's and lived into her 100s. She also greatly inspired me.

I love the palette and the Hieronymus Bosch feel to it. Well done.

goly that's so beautiful!
love the details
no one can think what it hides looking from afar.

That is crazy good, you are a true master painter I can believe this was your first painting you did there :0

Well, It took me quite some time to finish it...

I can believe that, please tell me you still own it and haven't sold it off. a piece like that you should keep for as long as possible.

It's in my parents' place, not for sale!

That's good because those painting are memories.

I'm not sure I can add anything more to what the previous people have said, love your work. @gric can't wait to see more of your work.

Thanks a lot @artkapture!

  • __ * amazing...

i've never been not amazed by your works and creativity and attention to details * __ *

the bodies and strangeness in the zoomed in details are so surreal and full with their own stories * __ *

upvotes and resteems

Stellar stuff man, I get some Giger vibes from this. Im curious, is the art academy in vienna an atelier? I attended the Georgetown Atelier in Seattle, and studied with a student who attended an atelier in spain.

Thanks @joeyok! The Art Academy is actually an university - you can find the details here: https://www.akbild.ac.at/portal_en/akbild_startpage?set_language=en&cl=en

Amazing painting again. Great textures and hidden details. I love it :D

Wow @gric! You continued to captivate, fascinate and put me into a constant amazement. No dull moments on your masterpiece bursting of so much stories which I find it bizaare and enigmatic. Furthermore, you keep on tickling our imagination to go beyond. Truly, you were born with it! :)

Thank you very much @aurisco!

Excellent work and art!

If you have time, could you check my works? ı will be very happy.

Have a nice day..

Thanks!

I love the hidden bodies and how it turns from a very warm green into a cold one...

From father to son,i think you are all talented :) and again details details...really imressive...i like your paintings a lot my friend...

Have a nice night

Dear Artist @gric ! This post has been upvoted from FineArtNow account ! See you soon !

Thank you!

To see all of the details I have to look under the microscope.
How is it a 1cm². There are so many details lol.

The square shows how big a square cm is in comparison to the actual painting.

Oh, the white square is a square cm. Lol, I get it now.
I thought the whole picture was a square cm.

Excellent your painting . Really awsome .Carry on dear.

Thanks!

Very good art. your strong artist. ... Thanks for us sharing work...

Thanks!

Wow....amazing this art , i appreciate this painting...all the best dear....

Thanks!

Most welcome....

The color balance is spectacular and as always the details are the maximum. I do not know if I told you before but some of your pieces remind me of the work of H. R. Giger. 😀

Great work, wow!

Beautiful work!!

Thank you!

Very nice work! Followed you, btw. I hope you'd follow me back so you could see my future works. And see how bad I am at drawing. Haha. Keep it up!
