Ohhhh Now what's broke? Or sticky? Stop fighting!.... but we love them so.
In an interview with Bored Panda, the artist revealed that the most challenging feature to paint is the nose, as it requires just the right balance of detail and subtlety to capture its form.
When asked about his ideal day, Wood admitted that he doesn’t follow a strict routine. Instead, his days are quite varied, allowing for spontaneity and creative freedom, which keeps his artistic process fresh and dynamic.
"The only way to get into the zone is to get started on something," the artist said.
"Nothing happens if you just sit there waiting for inspiration to strike," he added.
