I've put down my wacom stylus and picked up my brushes and got down to some artwork "Pre-'95" style! (before I got my first macintosh with photoshop!) These are all in progress but I'm really excited to show them so I'm letting the cat out of the bag! Warning: these pictures are really low rez and over saturated but I can't help myself!
I'm still reworking all of these but I think enough of the idea is there! More to come! [ Edited by: suburbanpagan on 2005-06-22 14:31 ] |

These are great. I work on the box as well, and its fun to get away from from it. Keep up the good work. |

Thanks a lot everybody! The positive vibe is a great feeling! I'm glad I got back to my roots...... it IS so nice to step away from the box! Here's an update of the moai in profile. The problem with being so psyched to get to painting is that I just went and started painting on an old canvas that had all this texture that doesn't work for this subject...it was really distracting me so I took some 50 grit sandpaper and sanded this mother down and destroyed it a little knowing I'd be much happier in the long run! So here is an update with some more accurate landscape features too..still not done, but getting close!....got some others in the wings too. Hope you like! |

They're all real nice. but I think I like the style of the 22x28 confrontational one the best. You gotta name these bad bays. |

Top Shelf work mate - I like the rough style - works well with tikis and is something you can call your own style. I am new to Tiki Central and have found these guys to be very helpful and supportive. |

Thanks tiki beat! Lot of supportive people in the ol' TC! Here's an update of an earlier sketch....still workin' it...I've bouncing around on these 5 or 6 paintings for the past month, so the updates are sporadic at best! |

Thanks for all the support everybody! Yeah, these last two are part of a series I call "Snippets from a Club"...........just little scenes that might get etched in your head when in a rum haze in an exotic locale! These paintings really make me glad I picked the brush back up.........I have really burned out on digital art creation after working in photoshop all these years! More to come soon, including my attempt at the monthly theme! Thanks again! Good to see you in TC Ravenne! |
