A diary of my adventures in art from painting to 3D animation. I have added work over 10 years so it has become a record of my changing abilities and interests. Contact me if you have any questions.

Landscape -Utah Desert Photoshop Study 4
Landscape -Colorado Desert Photoshop Study 4 |
This is the last in this series of landscapes. Still a lot of work to get done. Did not manage to get the crispness I wanted - especially in the foreground. I will be returning to these again. I had planned to go into some figure drawing after this. I have been practicing sketching poses and would like to do more detailed studies. I am still torn between doing this and going for the challenge running on Crimson Daggers- Swamp Elder. Hmm...

Landscape -Utah Desert Photoshop Study 1
Landscape -Utah Desert Photoshop Study 1 |
Still doing landscape studies. So moved away from the misty landscapes to some images with sharp detail. I did capture that here but I have planned to do a series of these as well so still some time to learn and improve. The photos are from Canyonlands in Utah, USA.

Landscape -Canada Photoshop Study 4
Landscape -Canada Photoshop Study 4 |
Number 4 in this series. This one definitely got away from me. The water was OK bit the mountain is a total bust. By the way I limited myself to 2 hours for all these studies so if things went in the wrong direction there was not much time for me to fix them. Still more practice to come.

Landscape -Canada Photoshop Study 2
Canada - Landscape |
So this is the first of a series of landscape studies - all performed in Photoshop. I have not done many studies of landscapes so I will spend some time working on these.
Over all my work practice has taken on a little more focus I hope. This is because I have made a commitment to practice and get better at Photoshop and traditional media. This was a decision I made towards the end of the Summer. The putting it in to practice has been aided by the Deathline Challenge. More about this later. Sunday, December 4, 2011
