A couple more quick warm up paintings

30 to 40 minutes each.

A few quick paintings

Just a few paintings using some spit painting topics. All of these were done under an hour, but exact time I can't be sure of. I was interrupted by something on each one. Go figure. The Ark in Water and Lava Falls paintings I did 90 -100% of with a mouse because I didn't have my tablet with me. :}

Busy at work = more time with sketchbook.

I've been pretty loaded with my day job lately and had a lot going on at home in the evenings so that has kept me doing as much painting as I would like. However, I have been able to pick up my sketchbook in the little down times at work that we get (file loads, renders, etc). Thought I would upload a few of them here just to show what I've been up to.

Dragons everywhere

After posting a few sketches yesterday, I felt like posting a collection of dragon sketches today simply because I love dragons. They are a common subject in my sketchbooks.

Even though unintentional this one ended up reminding me of one of my favorite moments from the Neverending Story.

Ink sketches...

A few ink studies I did at a recent visit to the Detroit Institute of Art with my family. Had a great time. There is so much fantastic art there to enjoy. I limited myself to 10 minutes or so to do these, otherwise we wouldn't have seen very much of the rest of the museum.

A couple of sculptures we sat and sketched.

A sculpture in the Egyptian section

The Hammerman, one of my favorite sculptures in the entire museum.

A little painting practice...

I've been pretty busy lately working on several new games (a new mobile game and a card game) along with other aspects of life and work, but I managed to squeeze a little practice time in tonight. I was using a spitpaint topic for inspiration, although with the Olympics on in the background I can hardly qualify this as a spitpainting. I did keep it to an hour though.

Now Available...

For all my friends who are fans of puzzle/match type games check out Elemental Fuse. A game in which I had the pleasure of doing the artwork for as well as the music.

The game is available on both Android and iOS systems.
