Nothin but Elk!


Since I was also posting this in the "Work In Progress" section on the ArtRage forum, I received some feedback about the background. Some felt the painting needed to focus mainly on the elk and felt to many trees in the background would pull your eye away from the main subject. I finished it both ways... You be the judge!

1620


I'm not sure how many followed me on this over the past 5 days in my daily sketch blog - It has been quite the journey. If you like, you can read more about the Mayflower HERE. This was my first attempt at painting a ship and a seascape on digital media. I'm satisfied with it overall however there are a few things I would do differently on my next one. Thanks for checking it out!

My Eyes


A quick sketch of my eye's. Eye's are amazing... especially when you draw or paint them and realize how strangely complex they are.

Jedi Jackson


A poster design for my little Jedi Jackson who will be turning 5 in January (hence the title). The painting was completely done in Artrage, the text was done in Photoshop using a downloaded Star Wars font (thank you Erica!). It was printed at 20" X 30" and mounted on foam board to hang in his room.

Well I guess now I can honestly say "Jackson.... I am your Father!"

Drift Away


Well I finally got around to creating a blog! I'm still learning the ropes of Blogger so bare with me until I get it all figured out.

This painting is titled "Drift Away" and is one of my latest digital paintings. A fallen leaf, in all its glory, drifting away to mark the end of one season and the beginning of another.
Done 100% in ArtRage.
