Art Nouveau??

Playing around really late last night and came up with this sketch. My humble homage to the style of Gustav Klimt. Oh and that's supposed to be a man's heart in her hands, not a tomato.

Sci-Fi Portrait

Something I started on last night. Just another fun experimental painting.

Concepts





These are my projects for the last couple of weeks. I've been watching massive amounts of tutorials and trying to learn Painter X backwards so It has been a very busy month and I have only scratched the surface. These pieces were done in Painter X only, no photoshop. Once again just trying to experiment with brush techniques and find my own way within the program using a very limited color palette. I find that I like the expressive and gestural approach to digital painting versus the tight rendered style. On the second piece I did get a little tighter than usual and I was happy with how it came out, though it was exhausting having to stare at the same painting for over fifteen hours.

Hopefully I will be able to put out a few more before fall semester begins!
