It’s an old painting but I thought I have some paintings that I want to show first before I start uploading my latest work.

Env 22
It’s been a while, I know.
Hexel Field (Env 21)
More landscape painting experiments.
Everest (Env 19)
I’ve been experimenting with a unique grid paint program called Hexels 2.5 in which you paint with blocks, octagons, and other shapes. It is great for pixel and isometric art. It’s also great for blocking in because it forces you to paint on a grid and this is effective in preventing you from adding details. After I got it blocked in, I imported the painting into Photoshop and painted the details in.

Icy river (Env 17)
Today’s landscape painting. It’s more muddy then my previous paintings. I did add a slight bit of orange in an attempt to give the painting more life. Ref from Wikimedia Commons.
Island in Lake (Env 6)
A rockly like island on the side of a lake. This was another practice that I used only one brush for the painting. It’s rather difficult.
When painting this I used Wikimedia Commons for reference
Forest (Env 3)
The first environment where I feel that have gotten back into gear. For this study I decided to use only a smooth charcoal brush and not use any foliage or texture brushes.

Foggy Bridge (Env 2)
I’m determined to do a enviroment study every day even if I don’t post every day. Today it is of a foggy bridge.

Mountains Concept(D44)
Messing around in Artrage with some concept art. I do like the realistic brushstrokes I can make with the software, but I haven’t figured out how to handle detail and refinement well.
Abstract Ollice Version 2 (D42)
After getting some sleep, I look at the painting and decided to see if I could push it farther. The spheroid changed into a fluffy, multi eyed, serpentine monstrosity. The painting now has a clear back, middle, and foreground, thanks to adding broken ship parts in the foreground, and painting the rest of the body in the back. I might have lost some of the spontaneity of the first one but think it is a better picture overall. Might push it even farther..
