Wrath

A gift for Jessie :) I've been trying to do more tattoo based designs in the hope of making some money, seems to be working as I know a studio willing to take some designs on!

Guardian Angel commission

Another one of my 'crippled angels' as they have come to be known, though this one is less grotesque then normal. It was a commissioned piece so was a little bit toned down: this angel is protecting his human fiercely. It made me want to paint another concept; an angel fallen from grace because she fell in love with Eve (i.e. human sin and human ideals).

The sketch is of a troll - I've improved on trolls quite markedly! :D

Angel Studies

Further angel study for painting.

Crippled by the weight of human cruelty, this angel is blind and deaf. It's mind is simple, and it cannot comprehend the ways of man - yet like a child the angel continues regardless, immortal and loyal to a God it never sees, in pursuit of the elusive beauty of the world.

A more grotesque angel is more beautiful, don't you think? :) I really enjoy drawing angels because there are so many metaphors involved in them; they are different to everyone. I think I've improved by drawing them too ^^ Hopefully I will put this image into some sort of desktop background, when I have time. They refer to one of my short stories, 'Canary Factory'.

Kelp Dweller

A few concepts for a merman. This is a kelp dwelling merperson, far more shy then his rock bathing cousins. He hides in the ocean bed and remains camouflaged; I painted him with watercolour and neatened him on photoshop. You can see the process too - I keep records so that I can pinpoint mistakes later. You can see the change in his head pose and arm/torso pose. I think he turned out well!

Three Flying Donkeys

Happy Pictures over summer :)

Purge

Yay! My pitch, 'Purge' got through voting and will soon be into pre-production! Here are some initial designs. A new blog specifically for Purge will soon follow :)
