Winter Forest

A landscape using mainly the oil brush!, I had fun with this one balancing the tones and contrast and just plain making things up, I think I was channelling Bob Ross a little on this one.
Smoke Zombie

Who doesn't love a zombie, and also they are fun to do especially with ArtRage and the palette knife.
Bad Rabbit

Another made up piece focussing on an exaggerated bone structure and making a little use again of the hair brush.
Robin

My idea here was to pretty much go for a Christmas card type feel so I thinned down the oil brush and focussed on simplifying the painting.
Gotham Catwoman
November 10, 2014
Starting this painting I employed a grid based technique to define the initial sketch and then put down some flat oil colour. I struggled on this piece to get some realistic blending on the face and as a result it ended up finishing quite flat looking.

Mainly the oil brush and very close to the original reference, I guess I didn't want to change the likeness of an iconic horse.
Tower Bridge
October 24, 2014
A landscape using as much palette knife as possible for a more abstract look, I was determined not to overwork this and make it look as if I had just thrown some paint at it. I think I would like to do some more landmarks in the future.
Mum 0

A portrait of my mum of which I experimented a little with the tracing option of ArtRage to make my life easier as I knew that this would be quite a challenging portrait.
Alien Queen
October 18, 2014
I always like rendering an alien as the detail is so much fun to render. I am still trying to figure out how to use the oil brush, currently using it on a thin paint setting as I am not yet comfortable with the thicker paint mixing.
Puppy
October 11, 2014
A pretty normal animal portrait using quite a thin type of oil brush and having lots of fun with the big dark cut eyes, for any portrait that is a very quick and easy win.
Cloud Witch
October 11, 2014
Starting with a reference of my mum and then improvising the rest, I made a little use of a button stencil to define the moon in the background.

A commission for my sisters boyfriend, I spent quite a while on this one to get it right, lots of detail and of course it is essentially two portraits and I really needed to try and get the likeness.
Me Troll
September 20, 2014
This was my first self portrait!, or more precisely creating something a little odd based on a reference of myself.
Margery

Another attempt at a portrait using the oil brush and this time the wet palette knife to generate some blending.
Harbour
September 14, 2014
The first landscape I have attempted in ArtRage, for this I thought I would focus more on the pastels. For this painting I made use of layers to split out the background and foreground, usually I pretty much work in very few layers.

Using ArtRage on a Surface Pro to create some digital art!
