May 28. The Island

May 28. The Island. I think this is going one of the first to be revised on Monday…. I want another shot at doing the exposed reef right and just plain better… with an interesting stylization.

May 26. First Day on the Job

May 26. First Day on the Job
I like this one. I’ll probably fix this up later and get more reference

May 25. The Resting Place.

May 25. The Resting Place.
I lost interest in this one….. I lost the mood I was going for and well…. just grew bored of it. Maybe I will go back to it and add detail. I like painting that sort of stuff like the engravings on gravestones…..

May 24. The Town

May 24. The Town
Eh. I was pressed for time today. I may redo this piece. My little apocalyptic houses are not chaotic enough. It’s very much like the suburbs too orderly and boring.

May 23. In the Wasteland

May 23. In the Wasteland Still playing off yesterday’s paintings vibe.

May 22. The Forgotten.

May 16. Before The Rains

May 16. Before The Rains Been looking at a lot of swirly things the past few days.

May 15. The Owl is Not What It Seems.

May 15. The Owl is Not What It Seems. I feel like this is a good color comp for something better. I like the composition and colors. I just need to sit there and finish it. I feel like all my pieces are medium environment shots… I’m gonna try and change it up tomorrow.

May 14. The Ferryman at the River

May 14. The Ferryman at the River Something super quick and simple for today.

May 12. The Caldera Disaster.

May 12. The Caldera Disaster. Ahhh. This is a painting that could have benefited from some editing and better design choices on my part. I guess I must have been looking at lava photos and though to myself to add what I thought was cool about each photo into my painting. Lava water falls? Hell yeah let’s add those. Lava flares? Hell yeah lets add that! Tall pointy rock pillars? Hell yeah lets add those everywhere! With all these cool things everywhere how can my image go wrong? Haha. But I actually have an idea for a simpler better lava composition, so that will probably be a paint later this week. I’ll do better tomorrow…. but sometimes you gotta fail to succeed. Have to get those bad paintings out of your system

May 12. The Conversation.

May 12. The Conversation. A quick paint, because I’m a little on the sick side. Inspired by Penny Dreadful which I started watching that the other day… It has beautiful sets. A cropped and non cropped version. I can’t decided which I like better. I’m leaning toward the cropped one because the full version doesn’t really add anything but room scale. But scale is important, so I don’t know……

May 10. Eh Aspen.

May 10. Eh Aspen. I was trying to experiment with colors and the result is: I don’t much care for this one… but I love the mouse dude. I did him in the last few frantic minutes. So I will probably do more with the mouse or mice.

May 9. Dance in Moonlight

May 8. The Desert.

May 8. The Desert. I have a version with people but they look weird at the moment so I will post that as another version when I fix them up…

May 6. Sunken Stargate

May 6. Sunken Stargate Based of the sunken bunker in France and the Gateway of the Sun at Tiwanaku. I am going to finish this… At some point… With cool glyph designs that isn’t just a rushed line tool.

May 5. The Buried Ruins

May 5. The Buried Ruins. Okay think I have these ruins out of my system… I just wanted to try a better composition for the paint I did the other day. I feel like this is a shot out of Duck Tales…

May 4. The Gargoyle.

May 4. The Gargoyle. I actually think I’m gonna take this farther. But with a different tree…. and better mid century modern ref.

May 3. Sketch a day. The Ruins

May 3. Sketch a day. The Ruins Eh. Took too much time. Noodled too much. I kept having to fix the face of the statue to not look like the puppet from the Saw movies. Onto tomorrow’s painting

May 2. Sketch (Or Rather) Paint a Day. An Oasis.

May 1. Away We Go

Trying to do a new environment a day. May fix this one up, but it’s really just a sketch of some rocks. I had to change the colors midway through…. because pink and purple really didn’t look appropriate.
