This is just me, but I think Kanevsky uses too much a trick of paint. This, as well as his subject matter, makes his work often appear decorative.
I think your work has more of an edge and commentary. Your paint works harder - it's less pretty.
I'm here to be influenced by work like yours so I can distance myself from Freud, but I do appreciate the compliment.
Thanks for adding me as friend. Think your work is very intense, relevant to all and alive. Not much is around!! Gives a good feeling to see. Thanks also for that!
They are two of the painters who most influence my approach.
In terms of trying to reconcile an expressive more emmediate mark/brush work and more abstracted form with a rendered more realist approach, I think you and I share a unique challenge and I think you have a solid voice.
I like the drawings too, please dont remove them, they have a beauty about them which I find appealing. I really enjoy looking at your paintings too,full of life and movement, jan
