Frazetta again


Yesterday's painting of the day was another Frazetta. I think I bite off more than I could chew and I don't know if I'll go further with it. About 4 hours work time.

Zoo pictures




I got some zoo sketches in today but I think the pictures I got of the meerkats and pygmy hippo were better.

Frazetta study



Day 3 of the return of "1 painting a day" was better that day 2. I just jumped in with no pencil and did the lay-in with transparent brown. The proportions are off but that's expected. Total time it took me was maybe 4.5-5 hours with plenty of breaks to watch Gentlemen Broncos on Netflix. Review: Its not as good as Napoleon Dynamite but it still had some laughs here and there. It certainly wasn't no Black Dynamite. Odd, I just realized that some of my most favorite comedies involve bowling, Mel Brooks, and the word dynamite in its title. hmmm.

Bonus painting of the day: 20 minutes total time.

Bad Start


If this is the start of my return to the "1 painting a day" I don't think its going to last. Maybe my 5th attempt at baking cookies while painting this distracted me. She's all misshaped and wonky. Even the nudity is sorta disturbing to me for some reason. She has since been scrubbed and sent to painting Valhalla and yes I was baking. I could have said I was doing something less effeminate like practicing Kung Fu or working on a GTO but....meh.....cookies. And they aren't half bad either.

What a lovely couch


Here is last nights "study". I think I might try the 1 painting a day thing again. No doubt I'll slack off again but its worth a try. She took me a little over 3 hours. I think I need to fix the head and get some decent wallpaper up.

Hippie Vampire


I got a email from someone asking about the original art for this so I guess this came out to print. This I believe is the only thing I did for White Wolf last year. I got to call those guys up.

DY-NO-MITE! DY-NO-MITE!

I finally saw the movie I never got to see in the theaters last year. The Hurt Locker? No, I saw that and its not one of those other Jive Turkey pictures thats nominated for an Oscar either.

It's BLACK DYNAMITE!



This movie is OUT OF SIGHT!

Oh and here are some sketches from the zoo.
