Black & White is a great and everlasting classic concept. Something that one shouldn't forget are all the grey shades in between, responsible for depth and shadows.With b&w you focalize on composition and form and it makes it easier to focus on the image as a whole.
Another benefit in my opinion is that b&w makes appear your work timeless. As one is used to see the world in color, when you see something in b&w you just stop and have a closer look.
That's just what I want to suggest with my motion-art piece shown here called:
"The Sin Eater"
original art & motion by Werner Hornung
Wow so inspirational. Beautiful artists have so many hidden meanings.

I appreciate your feedback...
I love b&w art, there is some kind of power in it that I can't put into words but I've mentioned it in several posts in the past:
Dreaming in Black & White
Fractals for Bernie Wrightson, RIP
Yin & Yang III
yeah...I think it is the aspect of looking "timeless' that gives b&w some special place.
