Originally uploaded by Morty79
My initial semi tight sketch for a Pulp Magazine cover, while drawing this out I saw this working much better as a painting but this will do I hope. Though the drawing does capture a lot of what I want to show though.

A kind of study for my illustration project, I changed the composition and the movement a bit in the final but this does have some of the same essence. As usual I'm trying to push my limits with every new project.

Sketching as usual, I have really started to use the pencil like I use brushes more often which is quite odd. Hope to post the more finished work I have going some time soon.

Lately I have doing more studies. Landscapes and plants and trees mostly in color. Trying to improve my observation of color and how quickly and accurately I can get it down then refine them later possibly.

Any how on Monday some of my sketches where posted on sweet-station.com, I was surprised when I was contacted by the site moderator through flickr and even more so when she said she would put some work up. Life is always surprising and sometimes pleasantly so. I advise you to check out the site quite a wonderful variety of artist are posted everyday.

Just a page (one of many) that I did the other day, now that summer is really underway the next thing besides these usual pages will be finished illustrations and paintings or at least quick color studies. Well I shall see if I keep true to my word and have the discipline needed to do as much as I plan and need to do. Any how I will just do work that I enjoy or move me really so it will not be a burden.
