i like these for the use of colour and how the cars and buildings or terain just merge and go together so well. there is alot of distance in these images like the picture could just keep on going further into the distance, its all very futuristic.

i really like this how its jumping off the wall and all the colours work together, its kinda myserious like u have to look at it and u cant look away just because its so intreeging.
its such an odd piece u wanna b able to ask wat the isperation was.

i like with these images that evan though everything is moving it gives off the sense that time is standing still and that everything has frozen just for the buildings, and that nothing else around matters, the colours are very daunting.

heroes

i like the uses of colour in this how everything looks like its decaying away and the symbolism of the picture that we cant always rely on our heroes.
i really like illustrations to when it seems to be alive.
