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.

Happy Halloween!! :) New finished image titled "On a full moon"

Hey everybody, Happy Halloween!! :)

Here is an image I painted for an ImagineFX monthly challenge titled "Witches Moon." Halloween is one of my favorite holidays and when I saw this challenge I had to make some time to work on an entry. I would have liked to add more detail but I didn't have much time to work on it this month due to my busy work schedule.

Painted using Photoshop and Painter.

Corel Painter magazine showcase!

One of my recent paintings titled, "The Jewel" was featured in a showcase section of this month's issue of Corel Painter magazine (issue #35). I just received my copy in the mail today and I think it printed great. The picture here that I took is terrible though.

I'm a fan of the magazine so this was an honor for me to have my work showcased. Yay!
