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.
Foggy Valley Below the Mountains (Env 14)

Daily Painting No.25 – Snowy Mountains
I painted a snowy mountain scene. I had trouble balancing the painting, both compositional and light wise. after a hour and a half, I knew I needed to let go. I need to put a person, creature, or something on the slope on the lower right. Although there isn’t much, this painting a color painting, most of my previous paintings are gray scale with a tone added. Painted in photoshop. Time Spent :One and a half hour
Mausoleum Speed Paint
A speed painting based on a ref photo. I spent only fifteen minute on it but now wished i would of spent more as it seems I blocked it in rather good. Painted in Procreate on my over sized iTouch (ipad)
Wheat Field Speed Painting
I have decided to practice a landscape a day in a 15 minute speed painting. Created in procreate. once I feel my basic composition knowledge and blocking in the scene skills have improved. I will increase the time to a half hour.
