This guy is a master of light and painting. I can even greatly appreciate many aspects of some of his work I may not like as much.

I have decided to release much of my work as a digital artist and teacher into the public domain. I did this because I love to disobey Because I could not sell it for love nor money, the webs are choked with digital art and I am just one more lone voice. Perhaps this act will go viral, and the interest it generates may lead to some donations or profits from my other work, who knows?

I like his work, but yeah, this kind of artist probably makes most of their money getting commissioned for new works, not selling prints of existing work.

Also makes for a nice little feel-good stunt to get their name out there and more attention to their work.

In today's world, MC, I always think of the most cynical motives driving things and am usually proven right. Humans have an inexhaustible reserve of hiding selfish motives behind good ones lol.

I usually make my guess based on the ease of the good thing thry did. Slacktivism vs physically volunteering for something, etc.

that's a good metric. I'll remember it.

Artwork is pretty good, though. I like this one in particular: https://spark.adobe.com/page/ucLFuLOEKK9Uo/images/106bbbfa-4860-4855-82fe-17af2ca6fd8d.jpg
