| Armour Study |
Over on Deviant Art is a relatively new speedpaint group run by Wolkenfels . This was one of study images this month. I did not end up doing as a speedpaint however. I started it that way but ended up detailing it out took close to 4 hours I think.

| Pup Portrait |
This pup portrait is a rendering of a dog I have shown work of before. This is a photo. I also did a more recent quick sketch .
In the latter she had a grooming not strictly for cosmetic reasons. As she is part Bichon she suffers from allergies and the vet recommended the crew cut. Anyway this was using a photo taken before she lost her locks. Took about 2 hours. Definitely getting faster at these photo studies.

| Maintenance Man |
 |
| Woman |
This is a quick effort at portraying a maintenance man. The spanner may be a bit of overkill. The other is a really quick study of a woman.

| After- Street Scene |
Following the last environment effort I wanted to have another go putting some of what I learned into practice. This is based on O'Connell Street Dublin. It did not take as long as the last one so that was a plus. Built on a one point perspective I did a value study then painted over that. The hardest thing with this was not to let it get too muddy.

| Utilities Sunset |
This is a landscape that I worked on for a while. It started as a value study and then drifted from that into the final image. I spent way longer on this than the final image might suggest. I did try a lot of different things and at least identified alot of things that I need way more practice on. Will try another piece.
