Experimenting

Something a little different.  Heres another piece for Barron Storey's conceptual illustration class.  I applied some of the techniques Barron taught us to my particular style, and came up with this illustration.

9 hour work day

I sat down today and forced myself to work on Vis Dev.  These are mostly revisions from a past assignment, so the only new pieces are the designs for the dragon, painted poses for the tall green dude, and transformation sequence.  The last piece was from a thumbnail that I did when the project was still fresh, I just dropped in my new designs and adjusted the colors a bit. 

Here is some of the work I did in a 9 hour work session.  

I am probably going to revisit the dragon design... after uploading it im starting to think he looks like a digi-mon with a mullet. 

002

Heres a quick 1 hour paint, from an old black and white photograph I found on Pinterest.   It was interesting trying to paint a black and white image into color, but i learned a lot.

After doing some research, I found out that this is a picture of Titanic Survivor, Molly Brown.   pretty interesting, I guess you learn something new everyday. 

Speed Paint 001

Going to try and do one speed painting a day, heres a quick environment I painted from a photograph.  Whenever I paint from photographs I try and push the shapes, color, and mood to get a better overall design.
