  • Very good! but i think that his right eye needs work( the colour is week).

  • The clip is worthy of an show itself. To have photorealism with MS paint, a very simple program is quite amazing. I chuckle as it does keep with Close's princples of not using a brush. This is amazing

  • wonderful painter. And I haven't heard this piece I don't think, but I like it. I imagine if Glass saw this he would be stunned. He seems like a very nice man. Have you seen the documentary, A Portrait in Twelve Parts?

  • well...he's an american composer. and of the set that know him half love and half hate him. anyway, the music playing is one of his compositions. his work has been characterized as minimalism and in more recent years, post-minimalism, though the term is strictly speaking, a movement that was started in painting and glass was never a part of it. He has done many film scores. Much of his music is available for download. He has collaborated with many artists such as Ravi Shankar and Allen Ginsberg

  • He's an award-winnig composer.

  • thats awesome , but whos that guy anyways?

  • +5 on subject matter alone... well done.

  • Wow, thats pretty crazy, you are insanely talented!

  • soo impresive!!!!!

  • Very impressive. I watched the entire clip and never felt bored. You're a very skilled painter. :)
