an abstract surreal Ink wash painting of aggressively smudged ink strokes inspired by Cornelis de Heem and in the style of Jon Klassen. the inking style uses layered heavy inks and thick brushstrokes that create an dreamlike and ethereal texture. some of the ink runs and blobs. This inkwork could be described as abstract surrealism with elements of impressionism influenced by the bold and heavy brushstrokes of Russ Mills combined with the dark and intense atmosphere characteristic of Raphael Kirchner. The thick layered inks and smudged strokes create a visceral raw texture that feels aggressive yet sorrowful. The running inks and inkblobs give the piece a sense of chaos and distortion.
your guess is as good as mine as far as whats actually influencing the style
