Early Art: Digital Fanart

Here are a few pieces of digital fan art I created in 2006 & 2007. All were digitally painted using Photoshop.

The portrait of Geordi is one of the best pieces I think I have ever done (perhaps better than some of my recent work), but it certainly took a while and I am now trying to both improve the work I produce, but also am actively trying to shift my style and workflow to be faster and less rigid.

The works feature: Jeffrey Sinclair from Babylon 5 (which I plan to do more fan art of in the future), a scene from Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence, and Morpheus from The Matrix.

Early Art: Traditional Fan Art

Here are a few pieces of fan art I made in 2012, using traditional media:

Four Disney Artists Paint the Same Tree in Their Own Styles

I’ve only posted one other inspirational/educational video featuring other artists– The Three Amigos Watercolour Painting, and have been meaning to share this one for a while as well.

It shows four different early-era Disney artists painting the same tree in their own unique styles, and how they find common ground working on the same film together.

Certainly ‘historical,’ it is an interesting watch.

* A little reminder again to those seeing this by e-mail: the embedded YouTube video won’t appear by e-mail, and you will have to come directly to the site to watch.

Early Art: Oriental Figure

I honestly cannot remember what reference I drew this from (or when it was, being a few years ago). It is possible it is fan art, but I vaguely recall taking a photo of a statue, and drawing from it. I do not use the term ‘oriental’ with any kind of implied colonial-centric offence, but rather as a reflection of the historical overtones and style this specific piece implies to me.

Early Art: Halloween 2014

As I mentioned previously, I am considering anything done before starting this blog as ‘early art.’ Of the several early art pieces I plan on posting, these are some of the more recent ones done around Halloween 2014. Mostly 3d artwork done in blender, along with some sketches. Enjoy 🙂
