This is digital painting in Photoshop of a scene I photographed the year before last. It is a field of bailed hay. A very rare sight now as silage making predominates and the round plastic wrapped bales are a more common site. This was in August when it is possible to get sunlight and rain heavy clouds.
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.

Stories Illustrated
I remember first seeing Daniel Lieskes work this image which was created for a CGSociety challenge. I loved the design, the detail and of course the delicious colours used.
It was another image The Journey Home created for another CGSociety challenge which was an early seed of another brave and imaginative project. Daniels graphic novel The Wormworld saga was launched on 25 December 2010. This is the first chapter of the story.
Go along and check it out. Digital media and the new ways of delivering content such as the iPad are revolutionising the graphic novel.
