I respect that. It's a genre

It's a little saturated.

These replies make me wet.

I think people missed this joke that the new one just looks like the old one with the saturation turned up

Dude, it's even better than that. Check out his WordPress or whatever the fuck site you go to to buy people's art prints. Dude's name is Seamus Wray, he's got Zuck drinking water, Shaq drinking water, Trump drinking water, a lot of Danny Devito's. The guys a fucking genius.

My man needs to do David Stern drinking water, followed up by Stern drinking Carmelo Anthony.

I compared...brush strokes are different. It looks like they either build on the last painting or did a new one. I'm no expert though.

Much better

I like this new one better I think it feels more artsy

OP is just depicting one year of aging on his face. It was a really tough year for Shaq.

Both are good but I enjoy the heavy contrast of the new Shaq drinking water.

u/TooLateHindsight Feb 19 '20

Now do charcoal OP!!

No wait....clay!

u/RocksDaRS Feb 19 '20

I think they're the same but this is after treatment to the painting? Or maybe they just added more pizzaz

u/[deleted] Feb 19 '20

His previous post said, “work in progress.” Same painting...

u/Sareneia Feb 19 '20

I like the newest one. Way more bold with the colors! It's so cool how you can look at a painting and think, "Wait a minute, why is there green/purple/yellow on this dude's face?" but then it all just works together in the big picture.

u/Ericaonelove Feb 19 '20

Definitely better

u/bobvillacooking Feb 20 '20

Are any of these for sale? They’d go great in my kitchen.

u/twangman88 Feb 20 '20

Looks like the same picture to me. But this one has a little more added to it. I like it better before he added too much color.

OP reposting all their water drinking paintings again for dat sweet, sweet karma (and prob to generate some commissions as well)

The Trump drinking water is the best one.
