Start of Something New

Among other things, this is a sort of proof of concept for something I hope will be personally rewarding in a big way.

Enjoy this little prelude.

Mirror Bay

New landscape piece.

Enjoy.

100% Photoshop.

Ravine

Gonna try to revive this poor neglected blog a little. A landscape that I I've been futzing with for the past few days.

White Bird

Well, first post of the new year! Sorry for the lack of posts... At any rate here's a new piece. Inspired by the Vanessa Mae song of the same name.

Enjoy!

Some small sketches

Quick sketches to unwind. Pretty self explanatory.

Cavern

Here's a landscape I've been futzing on and off with a little at a time over the past month or so.

I had some serious fun w/ this, and learned a whole lot about coloring in the process.

Enjoy!

Speedpainting portrait

Here's a quick speedpaint done for fun. 1 hr. w/ Sai and Photoshop.

Enjoy!

The Call

Here's a piece I've been working on for a while. First time using some of the matte painting and texture technioues I've heard of, but I learned a LOT doing this painting.

Enjoy!

Blue Lava

Quick color study. 45 mins.

Distant Islands

Happy Independence Day everyone!

Here's a painting I've been nitpicking with over the past few weeks.

Enjoy!

Sketches and Scraps

Just a few paintings and such to keep the ol' blog fresh!

Enjoy!

Sea Cave

Welp, college is done for the summer, and I finally have some more time to paint! I've been working on this for a few days, as a sort of destresser from exams. 

Enjoy!

...STILL ALIVE!

Gah, has it been THAT long since I've posted?! Sorry for the lack of updates, school is getting into the final weeks of exams and such, so I have had little time to post. Anyway, here are some quick and dirty sketches and studies to tide you folks over until I can post regularly again, maybe during the summer.

Enjoy!

Speed Painting Profile

Here is another video showing my painting process. It does not differ much from what I do in Painter, but it does have a few new tricks in it. The music is OAM's Blues by Aaron Goldberg, and Despertar by Aisha Duo. Length is 1 hr- 1hr 30 minutes sped up to around ten.

Enjoy!

Sketchdump!

Here are a few sketches that Ive been working on over the past few months or so. Some I think are better than others, but I think they all work well! Enjoy!

Vibrant Dusk

  This is a piece I did in my spare time over weekends, inspired by the music I listen to, specifically Deuter's East of the Full Moon album. I really enjoy how this turned out, and hope I can do more like this in the future!

Enjoy! 

Carrie

This is a test video of using Youtube and a screen capture software to make painting videos. Not my best work, but it came out well enough!
Enjoy!

Hoodie

Monochrome sketch. That is all.

Geisha

Here's a quick sketch to prove I'm not dead. Sorry for the lack of updates, school has been my main focus for the past few weeks...
