Corel Painter magazine site front page.

After all of the excitement of having my portfolio featured on the CG society portfolio front page. I discovered that one of my works titled "Opalia" was chosen as pic of the week on Corel Painter magazines site front page. I just recently created a gallery there and only have one work uploaded so far and am already receiving good feedback.

This has really been a wonderful and lucky week for me. This is definitely great motivation to keep painting.

CGP front page

Just when I thought it would never happen I recently discovered that my portfolio is going to be featured on the front page of CG Society's portfolio front page. I'm still pretty unknown in the digital art world so this was a nice surprise. This really made my day. I'll be happy about this for the rest of the week. :)

Corpse Bride Fan Art (Work-in-progress)

Recently I was watching one of my favorite movies from Tim Burton titled "Corpse Bride" and thought I would take some free time to paint this image. I was thinking to myself "I wonder what these characters would look like if they were real" so the goal for this painting was to make these characters look more realistic.

This image is still incomplete and they still don't really look that realistic yet. I couldn't work too much into this image because of other work but I may try and finish it when I can get some free time again.

New Hair Tutorial

Hey everyone,

I have had a few people ask me if I could create a hair tutorial so I finally found some time and created this basic step-by-step process for painting hair. There is also a download for the brushes that I used as well. You can view the tutorial on my site at the link below.

For some other good news. Another one of my works has been placed on the front page of the It's Art mag website. The painting is an older work titled "Opalia" that I just recently worked into again.

My work on the front page! :)

Wow,

I just found out that one of my latest paintings titled "The Jewel" was placed on the front page of the It's Art community website as Editor's Choice. It was a nice surprise to me since I had only just recently created an account there and only have two works in the gallery there so far.

This really made my day. I worked hard on this painting and it's nice to see it get such positive feedback from the online communities. :)

Her Little Sidekick (work-in-progress)

I took some time off this Father's Day weekend to work on another personal work. So far I have put about 5 or so hours into it. I really want to take my time with this one and push the detail and really try to tell a story. She is a circus performer who is tired and stressed from a long day and is being cheered up and entertained by her little sidekick (a Capuchin monkey who is offering her a snack.

I hope to finish it soon. :)

Yay! I finally finished this image. :)

I just finished my latest image titled "The Hidden Place" which I had posted a work-in-progress of before. I hardly have time for personal work lately and I'm glad that I was able to find some time to finish it.

Here are some close-ups as well.


Thanks for visiting :)
