Absolutely brilliant stuff, and the last post has a sort of energy and style that I love. Thanks for sharing Sparth, this is exactly the reason I got into posting on CA in the first place. For like minded people to share and exchange ideas.

thanks again, Tom

[.:WoLf:.]

You have to love that style in last update

[sparth]

many thanks to all!
it's a pleasure sharing things, really.

[jpacer]

Wow! I really dig the new stuff! Kinda reminds me of Jacques Villon.

[Geir]

I really love these Alchemy paintings. They have inspired me to experiment more with Alchemy and alternative styles myself also

Daaammnnnn

How come someone of your expert- come on a low life sketchbook area. Why?
Why When most great artists like yourself- Tend to Hide and refrain from communities?

Id like a answer..

great work btw-

First these custom brushes that give this random factor that I didn't know was possible and that you and Vyle got such an amazing spin on, now these custom shapes. I'm kind of starting to get how so many of your pics lately look so tight and sharp. I've just done this one pic below here as a first experiment, using some custom brushes to make custom shapes: it's really easy once you know how. I'm definitely going to play with this some more.


And now this Alchemy thing! Jesus, what a tool! And perfect for someone like me: I can do freaky details and nice colors but composition has never been my forte. This is so playful, I love it. Thank you Sparth!!!!

[Toastage]

woah that new one is amazing sparth I love the temperature shifts. So inspiring!

[Vulgar`]

DaYUM!

[B-zilla]

Awesome, awesome.

Thanks for sharing your technique. Very tec! I love it.

[OYO!]

Mr Sparth, i cannot express with words how grateful I am for your generosity in sharing your thought process / techniques since many years. So here is a modest tribute instead, result of experiment with custom shapes indeed. Thanks again. Live long and prosper ^^

[rzicko]

WOW!!!!!!!

[Odayga]

I really dig your use of colors, bold and powerful, as well as the shapes you utilize in your work, almost gives it an abstract aspect.. keep it up bro.

[artiphats]

Sparth man you continue to be one of my art heroes, really dude you rock! Love your Alchemy stuff, keep it up man!

[insane lemur]

glad I stumbled upon this, Always appreciated your posts at sijun, and its great to see you being more instructive in this thread! I think the shapes are such a great compositional tool, 'building' the structure of an image is alot more intuitive than having to put it down out of a single stylus like a brush.

[Metal Fingers]

Dude! THIS one is so fly! Thanks for sharing all these wonderful pieces man.

[AbstractRealm]

Sparth, Great Sketchbook you started here, thanks again for sharing some of your technique. It's cool to see what people are up to using custom shapes, do you mind people uploading their artwork to your sketchbook?

[z01ks]

I started messing around with this technique today and had a little bit of trouble controlling the placement of the shapes, which I didn't like. So I found out that if you hold down Spacebar while dragging out your shape you can move it around. I don't know whether this is a well known fact but I just thought I'd mention it.

[dragonkille]

absolutly amazing , thanks for sharing ur technique , keep posting

[daflom]

i already tried to apply this shape technique, and i thinks its very useful! thanks for sharing it!

[CesarNostradamus]

I still dont understand it., Perhaps Sparth could make a youtube tutorial.

Thanks Z01ks for he great tip, it seems so simple but I did not know about the space bar.

[FightingSeraph]
