Abstract – “Deep”

Another of my alien creatures abstracts.  I haven’t decided if I like this one or not.  I had the idea in my head but the final result just doesn’t match.  Just need more practice, I guess. Also need a better scanner, too.  This image is way brighter than the painting actually is. Gouache on watercolor […]

Abstract – “Untitled”

Latest abstract piece done in gouache.  I’ve had it on the board for a while now with the background done and over the weekend, finally sat down to finish the alien creature-things there.  I still need to pull it off the board and trim the edges to remove the staple holes.  I’m rather pleased with […]

Postcard Swap #2 – January 2014

So it’s time for another postcard swap as organized by Dawn Diamantopoulos.  I was pretty eager to sign up again this time around and had been planning what I wanted to do for a while now.  As usual, that changed once I actually started working on the postcard, but I’m very happy with how it […]

Medallion

I have no clue where I come up with my titles.  This is a digital abstract piece done in Photoshop CS5.  Sometimes I think doing abstracts digitally is almost cheating, although I know it’s not.  What digital does make easier is shifting parts of the artwork in a circle or on a curve.  I haven’t […]

Now that July is over and the postcard is in the mail, I figured I should post about it. The postcard swap was organized by Dawn Diamantopoulos over on Google+ and I decided to take part. Basically, she assigned names to each artist who joined up and the task was to create an original piece […]

Well, that looks odd…

Yes, the background totally doesn’t match the rest of the site. I’ve been meaning to edit this/a theme to customize it for the site but I’ve also been incredibly lazy and not done so until now. Partly because I had no idea what colors I wanted to go with. But I think I’m going to […]

Added a new portfolio piece

I added the screenshots and information about the vBulletin 4.x forum skin customization I did for Matt James over at Loremaster.org. I think the skin turned out great and it was just what he wanted. I’m glad I’ve gotten into the habit of taking full page screen grabs after completing a project so I can […]
