The last 50 pieces of art I have completed in a slideshow!

This was part of a commission I did for a Canadian children's TV company through TeenyTinyStories

Some more random doodles, this time using just a notepad, biro, and infinite painter.

My artwork has been animated, here are some thumbnails, unfortunately you will only be able to see the videos in Canada, you could always use a VPN I suppose!

Using ArtRage to enhance some art with texture!

Started in Infinite Painter and I wanted to apply a lot of texture in ArtRage mainly utilising the depth of the Oil Brush to define Jabbas skin. I added a tongue from the original reference and subtly introduced Yoda and Luke into the background. The main enhancement from the reference was adding more of a spotlight on the face and enhancing the saturation.

A portrait of a recently passed cat of my girlfriends parents. This took quite a while to get the proportions and the colouring correct. The final touch of a vignette blur worked pretty well which gave the depth of view and brought the focus to the face. I enhanced the eyes with a sparkle which didn't exist in the original reference and of course needed to remember to add in the whiskers.

Any furry thing

A commission I completed using the power of ArtRage. This had a story of a dog scaring a squirrel and being very proud!!

Jabba!, using the mighty power of InfinitePainter and ArtRage

A portrait of my girlfriends parents. It is always tough for a portait let alone two so it took me quite a while. As you can see I did the usual background trick of duplicating and resizing the foreground which always ties things up nicely.

A commission I did for a friend of my girlfriends of their quirky cat, I very much focussed on trying to bring through the personality and enhanced the eyes with a little colour dodge and added some rim light. I decided not to over render this one as I thought the unfinished look worked quite well.

When a canvas is created or an image is imported and the height is larger than the width then the layer preview, canvas rotation and transformation options become distorted. There seem to be no problems with a landscape orientation.

Any piece of art that doesn't fit into a category

Part of a big multipart commission I completed. The first time I had really done some art for a sizeable amount of money. This was created from an initial brief. Firstly I produced some sketches to make sure I was going in the right direction with comments and modifications along the way. I tweaked my style slightly generally to be more of an illustrative look and had to focus more on a playful theme rather than the dark edge I usually employ.

A bit of a play around with an original composition, using ArtRage Vitae

This took me a loooooong time, probably because the subject matter is bother complicated and potentially a bit stale meaning that I had to work extra hard on it. I applied texture layer after texture layer and eventually got to a point I was moderately happy with.

It's easier to paint a subject that doesn't move

A little piece of art I did over Christmas, starting with InfinitePainter and finishing with ArtRage

Using ArtRage and InfinitePainter on various drawing tablets

It was Christmas so what better way to celebrate than producing a robin. The idea behind this was to make the style like a christmas card. This one was one of those that came together very quickly in a couple of hours and I quickly decided that it was completed.

Started in InfinitePainter over christmas, the main focus being a warm complimentary colour and the focus of the detail being the chalet, and just popped in a snowman for a bit of fun. The balance between a vignette contrast was key here.

Another started in InfinitePainter, I always quite enjoy the still life art and embellished a little with the writing on the side and tried to make the jar really pop out. It is not always easy to add life to an inanimate object, I think that is probably why I generally prefer portraits.
