Reply to comment by LifeSpanner in Burnt out! by OgnjenPavkovicArt

Thank you both guys! It was rude that i forgot to mention Petes work as well, since he really is huge inspiration to me and influenced a lot of my work, plus carrier path that im taking because of listening to his podcasts. On the other hand, just as Lifespanner have said, thats what inspiration is. Not a straight copy, but taking a bit of something and mixing it with your own stuff. Its regular thing among creative people and can be seen even in Old masters work from hundred of years ago!

Forgive me for my cynicism, but this reply really does seem like a load of baloney. It’s really apparent that you left out your ‘inspiration’ even through your instagram post. Again, it’s fine to be inspired, but it really seems Pete was maliciously left out, whilst other less blatantly similar stylings of other artists were credited in your shoutout.

“Also, this piece was heavily inspired by art of Zdzislaw Beksinski and @kirian2009! #originalart #traditionalart #traditionalillustration #pencilartist #pencilart #graphiteonpaper #darkart”
