@shia thanks so much! i try to be out of the box as much as possible

update on this, I've pushed it a bit more. I really like the vibe and composition, so I may render it enough to label a piece, or portfolio item

Major update on this piece! It has been going really well as of late. I've had a tough time with the right palette and tones, but I think I have something good down. Most importantly, I can feel the depth of the body, something I was really pushing for!

Also began an assignment for Terrm 2 Perspective. Its going well. I'm looking to add giant pillars and detail. I based my design off of the ancient ruins at/of Karnak :))))))))

Wow! Can't believe its been since august since uploading. I evacuated from my city for Hurricane Florence, and have been away from my beautiful painting supplies for 2 weeks! O the pain!

Just before leaving, I did however finish this

I'm quite happy with it. It well exasperates my current skill (fresh meat to pry apart and learn from lol) Most of what I'm missing is depth, probably through color and space.

Wow! Really loving the dynamic in the last painting!

Hello hello! I've been here and there doing quite a bit of acrylic work. I'm currently working on a series surrounding Trans youth from the rural demographic I grew up in. Its mostly portraiture and as mentioned in acrylic! Affording canvases is the only thing holding me back!

I'm picking up some compostion work again! I'm hoping to work on a major personal concept art project following the Trans Youth series. The studies (10 min) were on the left, with created scenes on the right.

There are many niches in scene design I'm finding I like so far. Like placing light at the pinnacle of the work, or using heavy shapes.

Holy guacamole! A year out.

Experimenting with this oil study. I have a lot of options for texture vs. 'negative space' (lack of texture since beyond this, the final will have gold leaf on it as well. Will probably push the trees back and give them a more neutral place. Pushing them into a more realistic impression in the circle.
Done with a zorn palette, very nice one! Within it I need to push my warm darks and oranges better, the portrait needs a goldddddddd look more than a yellow one :)))))
