🎨 The Forest (gouache/acrylic/oil on fiberboard)
This was the first painting I've started at the Art Academy in Vienna...

76 x 60 cm / 29.92 x 23.62 in
It was inspired by this ink drawing by my father:

😦 so gut Peter!! Die Zeichnung von deinem Vater auch! Ich mag mehr deine alte Bilder als neue (meistens) :)
das hab ich verschwiegen - wollte ich auch sagen - vielleicht ist es das organisch-mysteriöse welches mir auch so gefällt.
Danke Vesna!
Wow Crazy!!!! Malst Du mit der Lupe?
Ho Caroline! Damals habe ich noch keine Lupe gebraucht, heute entweder Lupe oder starke Brille!
Das glaube ich Dir gerne....sooo klein :-)))
wow - great work from your early years! Just wondering if there ever was a time when you were not that good, lol .... I am thinking back about my own, and there are some that I rather not show 😜
That drawing by father Jaroslav Gric is the hammer! The apple does not fall far from the tree, and conversely, your daughters are quite accomplished in their artwork, what I had seen.
I see a ghostly appearance of your trademark globe in the sky, so it dates back quite some time.

Thank you Otto! :-)
one of my very favourites of yours!
Danke @romanie!
A fun image to explore and get lost in. So many details and really cool textures. Great job!
Is that a different world and a different sky on the other side of that cave? Different from the sky we see above the dead forest?
Thanks @kidsysco! Yes, it's meant to be a different reality in there.
Gric, how many details your painting has, it's amazing, it looks like a tale of adas.
It shows all the dedication and hours of effort that you put, I admire you.
A painting of this style is what I would love to have in my house.
Thank you @equipodelta!

You've taken what was an amazing idea by your father and turned into a next-level work of art. I love that you shared so much of the process, too. Bravo!
