colored

I'm happy to say this piece got into the foundation show next year, so I decided to spend a little more time and give some dramatic coloring to it.



Still all photoshop.

I haven't had much work to post because it's all in progress, but in the next week or two I should have a plethora of stuff from sketches to paintings, and hopefully my first comic short story!

John W Waterhouse Master Study

So I drew this master study of Waterhouse's The Danaides in Critical Inquiry. It was great to loosen up because lately I've been slaving over the technical aspects of my work so they seem pretty stiff. I'm really drawn to the lighting and composition of this one.

I can't find the exact piece i replicated but here's a very similar version. I guess he did multiple versions.


Here's a website with great documentation of his work

Self portrait

Here's the final (i think?) of a self-portait I've been working on for a while. I've seen a ton of artists who are blatantly inspired by Phil Hale, so I thought, Hey, why not me?
100% Photoshop.



And a detail.

Detail

Here's a detail of something I've been working on. I've had some fun painting in photoshop for the first time in a few months. I'm definitely going to experiment a lot more with textures. No, it's not for Bioshock, but yes I do like Bioshock.

Here's an oil painting I've been working on pretty laboriously, but it's still nowhere near completion. I've got a lot of paintings of crayons and paintings of crayon drawings ahead of me. oh yeah, the kid is wearing a mask.


Sorry im already terrible at updating this thing! Hopefully Ill have more stuff to put up around once or twice a week.

Sketchbook 2

Some decent and not so decent attempts at drawing friends.

The Vibrant Sweater

This was done in my new watercolor sketchbook and was my first time with gouache. I'm definitely going to work more with it.

Interior, Inked

Here's the inked version of the interior I did for the Fall of the House of Usher production we had. I like the pencil more.
