"Not Impressed" - Digital Painting

Image
"Not Impressed" is a digital painting, All done in photoshop. just a fun drawing I guess ..  'Not Impressed" [Digital - Photoshop]

"Infection" - Mixed Media

Image
This one is called "infection". It was a bit of an experiment with some new mediums; gouache paint and spraypaint and watercolour. The "infection" really comes off the canvass like 1-2cm, so its quite pronounced. The shadow behind it acts like the shadows of veins behind skin ... creepy huh ? I dunno ... i'm not quite sold on this one ... it may grow on me.  "Infection" [Gouache, Spraypaint, Watercolour & Acrylic]

"Fate"

Image
This one took a bit more planning, and has a special meaning. It was a gift, and is hopefully still around somewhere.  Planning ...  Brown/green was yuk ...   Cracked desert floor ... harsh .. unforgiving.  Two worlds merging ...  Painted over the floor again ... clouds had to be changed ..  Fixed the edges ... took ages  Girl had to go to make way for background ...  Dress looks shit ... legs look shit ...  Ahhh fixed ...  Finished   "Fate"  [Acrylic]

"You wouldn't like me when I'm angry"

Image
Another one of my favs currently residing in my room, "You wouldn't like me when I'm angry" This surprisingly took about an hour to do ... and all in pretty much one hit .. so no progress shots ... just finished product. The veins are cool and actually protrude off the canvass which is a cool touch.   "You wouldn't like me when I'm angry"  [Acrylic]

"Ironman"

Image
This is one of my favs ... I went through a bit of an Ironman phase after the first movie cam out ... and I spent a LOT of time drawing him. The closeup and contrasting colours really add a vibrant colour to the white walls in my room.  Did the painting outside ... shame to waste a nice day.  Hung 1.  Hung 2.  "Ironman"  [Acrylic]

"The Batman"

Image
Nanananana BATMAN! This thing is massive, so big in fact that the canvass has since bowed ... unfortunately the bottom left kicks out from the wall a bit ...  This is unfinished ... but you can see him take shape and the contrast is awesome ..  This is done ... All Acrylic  "The Batman"  [Acrylic]

"Wanderer" - Shadow Experiment

Image
The next one is called "Wanderer", just another experiment with watercolour and acrylic and experimenting with shadow.  I really like the contrast of the shadow and light. This one is hanging in the living room.  "Wanderer" [Watercolour & Acrylic]
