At Last

This is from a line drawing I did a few months ago. I then coloured it up in photoshop before adding clouds. It's about making the right decision before you start as it could be very time consuming otherwise.

American Gods - Illustration

As the title will suggest this is an illustration from Neil Gaiman's novel 'American Gods'. Its from a recurring dream Shadow has in which he is climbing a mountain of skulls to reach the Thunderbird in order to solve his problems in real life.

Hilltop Castle

This is one of my earlier photoshop works and during my 'castles phase'

The Dinosaur King

This is the latest picture I've completed. I want to create a hidden forest temple, so working from a few reference photos I laid out composition, then painted in greyscale before adding colour overlays. The work was done in photoshop. Hope you cats like.

GIGABRAND

Close up of mid-section from 'Gigabrand'
you can clearly see the two parts of the sky, the grim, dark clouds and the clear blue being polluted by the factory's smoke.
The painting was completed late June 2010 an is acrylic on loose canvas.
'Tis about the corporate world and its much needed destruction. Depicting a distant future with mass housing in the form of apartments and a power plant getting destroyed by an advanced race.

Mid 2008 oil painting.
The idea was simply to paint with oils and see what happened. As you can see this is the result.
This picture I painted end of 2009, although the base drawing was done a year or so before..
Its acrylic on loose canvas about 1200mm x 2100mm in size.
As the title will suggest it is about nature being the ultimate force. On the left there is a city, decaying as it nears the middle third and blooms as a woodland on the right. The fire in the sky is a dramatic representation of what mankind is doing to the planet and skies.
