a couple of studies done recently
i do have a lot more of traditional sketches, done during lunch break at work
tho I'm kinda torn if o should post them here with this bunch?
Awesome studies! I especailly love the two hands with the eye. Such a gorgeous piece )
thank you! i enjoyed playing with a reference study 
I really like your style. I always have trouble getting skin to feel alive the way you've done in all your paintings (I poked around your Instagram account). slightly off topic but what kind of pie is that?
hey Matt! sorry for the late reply, didn't see the notification until now ahaha
and thanks man!
the pie is a avocado lime pie. I'm not a big fan of avocado, but do their deserts look nice and gourmet like!

Currently creating design of a flower type chimera for an illustration.
She should have a giant golden flowery mane and large tail, while also pure and guarding a portal/door/arch
First i started quickly some shapes, based on some plants i was familiar with or saw beforehand 
The first one seemed like a more elegant idea, so i took it a bit further for more quick and loose iterations 
The last one, i second raw is currently my fav one, i feel like the plant element reads well and she stayed elegant and majestic (I hope)
I wont share much sketches for the illustration, as they are VERY sketchy and unclear
but here is the one i picked to flesh out a bit.
Currently battling perspective and fixing some ideas for the space and bigger elements 
As always, critiques are super welcome!
Nice! Good job I love those! I really like the designs and your camera angles!
thank you! tho after a bit a feedback, i've decided to push myself some more with even lower angle and chimera being in a more dynamic pose, rather than so static and statuesque
cant wait for some more free time to work on it
Welcome! I really like the shapes of that last piece and your hands are on point !
thanks! I am happy there is a place i can post some of the process and maybe get some feedback

i am actually very happy about this small thing from last night, i rly focused on brushstrokes and shapes, and leaving out some shapes or merging them together
i went in with a bit of a traditionalist approach
hopefully i can put that into practice as well
this will be my warm up piece for the next couple of days, i want to render it completely in that manner and see how i handle fabrics
picking the mood for this one
