approaching the canvas differently..




I started a new piece about 2 weeks ago and I actually went into painting it tonight. I'm having a lot of fun with this one, it's fun experiementing! I'm about 2.5 hours into the painting and I'm using acrylic on 24x36 wood panel. Hope you enjoy the progress shots.

digital illustration



First time painting with photoshop. I think the perspective is kind of awkward and I wish i showed more of the cliff. But I enjoyed playing with color on this one.

Finals Week


Well. It's that time again. Time to get 0-4 hours of sleep every night for a week until all your projects are finished. I had a great semester though, I learned a lot from all my classes. Here's a new painting I did about 4 days ago. It took me approximately 6 hours to paint. I used acrylic on cold press illustration board. I've got more paintings I should be posting but...we'll get to that some other time. Now to continue working until Thursday.......

I've decided the first thing I'll do once summer hits is have a glass of wine and sleep for 2 days straight. Well, probably not the latter, but that would be nice.

Pictorial Background




This is one of the projects I'm currently working on. It's a background animation from Sleepy Hollow. I'm working with acrylic on cold press illustration board. The size of the painting is about 11x8 inches. I still have to desaturate some of the areas and add more detail. The color is a little off, but at least I have the hue down. I'm shooting to finish this in about 5-6 more hours...hopefully. Gotta work faster!!

Cerebral Playground...





Was a success! Well, to me it was. There were much more people there than what I had anticipated, and plus it was tons of fun. Here are some photos from the show.
