Thor

I have yet to see the movie, but I felt inspired to create a piece dedicated the thunder god.

March 23

Here are some pieces I did last week. The top piece was done in 2.5 hours at the Costume Portrait class held at the Nevada Museum of Art. The middle piece was created at a fellow artist's studio, Ron Spears. Check out his work if you can. He's an amazing painter. Lastly, the bottom portrait was created at the local portrait society. It was about 2.5 hours of work, as well.

Oil Alla Prima

Did a couple more alla primas over the last couple of days. The first model, Carolyn, dressed up in a Victorian Steam Punk-ish outfit. It was a three hour session. The second model, Ali, came as a gypsy. This was a 5 hour session. Learned a lot and had a great time.

Red River

I got a new Intous4 tablet over the weekend which replaces my Intous1 I've had since the 90's. In any case, here's my first sketch with it.

Elves In The Forest

Sat around today and created this Elf piece.

Oil Painting Studies - Part 1

Here are some oil studies done from several modelling sessions.

Nicolai Fechin - Master Copy

It has been ages since my last post. Sort of lost track of time. Well, no time like the present to get started again. This is a master copy of one of Nicolai Fechin's works. I learned a lot from it, especially his brushwork which is both beautiful and complex.

Digital Fantasy Art

Just a few recent digital pieces.

The Red Queen

A lazy Sunday digital sketch.

Around The World In 80 Days

These are some background paintings I created for a cancelled game, titled "Around The World In 80 Days". My job was to paint one very large panorama of the world which would serve as a backdrop to the game. Unfortunately, I only completed a section from Hawaii to the Atlantic Coast before the game was scrapped. It was still fun to be involved with.
