Rose chosen as daily selection on CG gallery and as a standout on digitalart.org

Hey everyone, :)

I recently found out that my most recent painting titled "Rose" was chosen as the daily selection on CG gallery and also as a standout on digitalart.org.

This really brightened my day. It means so much to me to get such great feedback on my work especially from other artists. I'm mostly happy that others enjoy my work because I really enjoy creating it. :)

Here are links to the two sites

New finished image titled "Rose"

Hey everyone, :)

I finally had some free time to finish this portrait I started about a week or so ago. I went a little crazy with the hair but I had a lot of fun and I like the way it turned out. I wanted this girl to look classic and doll like.

I hope you like it and thanks for visiting :)

New work-in-progress titled "Rose"

Hey everyone, :)

I thought I'd post a work-in-progress here that I started.

I took a little free time today to paint a practice portrait trying out a new Photoshop brush that I created.

I'm happy with the way it's coming along so far though it still needs a lot of work. I may finish it later in the week.

New images!! :)

Hey everyone,

I just recently finished two new images which I also posted on my website. The image on the right is titled "Exotic Butterfly" and the one on the left is titled "The Artist"

For Exotic Butterfly I wanted to paint an exotic female figure as opposed to the typical pale wafe like figures which are common in many paintings of fairies. She is not a fairy actually she is a rare butterfly that can only be seen in this secrete place. I really had a lot of fun painting all of those little budgies in the background as well as the Macaw. They are some of my favorite birds, I love them so much :)

For The Artist image I wanted to paint my own interpretation of an Artist. A being that can create their own universe. I actually want to leave this one open to different interpretation though.

Here is a close-up from Exotic Butterfly.



















I hope you like these images and thanks for visiting.

New finished image titled "Light Blue"

Hey everyone. I hope you all had a wonderful New Years!!

Here is my latest finished work that I painted during my free time on New Years. It started off as a simple lighting and color study which turned into a finished painting. I really wanted to push the realism with this one. I really loved these colors as well since I have been working with a lot of pinks, yellows and oranges lately in my previous work. It was refreshing to work with these cool blues and violets.

Painted using Photoshop and Painter.

Here is a little close-up as well.

New finished image titled "Romance"

Hey everyone, here is my latest finished image. I had been working on this one little by little during my free time. I had wanted to paint a romantic image of a couple for a long time and I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Once again I had a lot of fun with the color.












Here is a close-up as well.
