My favorites were the geisha, the gangsta, amelia dogheart. These are all property of MGA

At Last! I can share these illustrations! These were done for a card game called Andale! Andale! approximately almost a year ago. We were in a crunch of several projects and I was given these to single handedly crank out from concept, to rough, to finish. Thanks to Dwight and Joel for their suggestions on props and color.

WORKING ON:

Been so busy. I literally painted this in my head before starting. Already knew how I would organize the brushstrokes. This is one of my first attempts of painting a male and boy are they more fun than the painting the girls. Lots of character, facial planes, etc. I probably won't do much more to this: I like the roughness and being able to see the brushstrokes.

2nd portrait of Corrine. I've made better decisions using the filberts and brights and am getting better at organizing my brushstrokes.

Corrine as Ann Boleyn

About a month ago, I was asked to help put together an Ann Boleyn costume for Corrine. It was quite a challenge, because I had only 48 hours to do so, running to Joann's Fabrics, finding whatever was available, doing research online. It's a good thing I had seen The Other Boleyn sister last year. But as I was putting on the final brushstrokes for her face, I realized I had painted not Corrine, but her Mom, one of my dearest friends, Lisa, the way she looked nearly 20 + years ago when we were in college.

Painted at work during my lunch break. I used my filberts and brights. I have been studying a great painting book that my boss, Joel, let me photocopy to read. It's called Painting the Head in Oil, by John Howard Sanden and it's old so I'm assuming it's out of print. It emphasizes painting deliberately, not wasting the brushstroke.

Morrow Bay

Was I there? Several years ago. This was painted from a photo. I tried to paint more deliberately and this was done within roughly over an hour.

These were done awhile back-and badly done at that. I've actually held off posting these turkeys for embarrassment. Oh well...

Some new updates on some paintings and some new. The oriental soldier is not done yet. I have been working on him during lunch at work. Same as the blond warrior with the armor. Been doing a little freelance at night after work; been very tired.
