Made to Size
Omarwill paint a new original at the size you choose. Each piece is a one-of-one, marked as an Artist's Variant on its COA.
How Omar works
I build in layers. Thin underpainting first to set the structure, then longer sessions where I let each layer dry completely. The middle layers are where the piece decides what it wants to be; the final passes are about restraint — knowing when to stop. A studio original usually takes three to six weeks, longer if it's large or the composition fights back.
