Forest Hunter

Have been working on this for over 3 weeks in between other images.  It has probably benefited from me returning to it several times with fresh eyes.  It was done as a challenge and in some ways a success but as I wrap it up I am seeing some poorer points.  Going to call it done and carry the learning forward.

A doodle and trying out some different Photoshop things led to this.

Still working on a more involved piece of work. Not because it is very intricate but because I have had to focus elsewhere.  Here are some random sketches I have been doing alongside- mostly to relax.  

Forest speedpaint

I was working on another illustration but still have a ways to go.  This is a speedpaint I did of a forest landscape study from photo.  Took about 90 minutes.

After Thomas Moran - Cliffs of Green River

A masters study - After Thomas Moran Cliffs of Green River.  Don't think James Gurney would be too happy but anyway don't believe there is any chance this could be mistaken for an original .  Some landscape practice for me.  Done in gouache and I still haven't figured out how to achieve the luminosity that exists in the original.   Dare I do another ?

Played around with some images layers and textures for this one.  Could have ended up detailing this forever but time to move on.

Sorry I missed the post last week.   I was away and because of that the productivity was down for last week. So a simple wolf.
