We love the sharp, angular style of Polish artist Michał Sawtyruk, whose work resembles the palette-knife painting of skilled artists, who can quickly form their subjects using paint strokes off of their painting knife. These pieces, however, are formed entirely digitally, using a Wacom tablet, and a keen sense of architecture and space. A few of his paintings bring a subtle bit of animation to them, giving them flits of movement and life. Overall, his style is confident and distinctive, we’re eager to follow his work. Via Behance:
