Femme Noir

Femme Noir

This is a pinup piece for an upcoming comicbook based on the collected online strip that can be found at:

http://www.supernaturalcrime.com/comics.html

My intention was to create a mood and style like the old pulp covers of the 1950's. The work was begun as a drawing, scanned and painted in photoshop.

In retrospect, might have been faster for me to paint it traditionally than to try to mimic a painterly approach working digitally.

Autumn

Autumn

This a mix of traditional (acrylic painting) and digital. It's mostly physical- the digital is more of an enhancement . I tried to embody the feel of the summer's end and autumn's approach in a figurative motif.

General Ursa's head

General Ursa's head

Working with a special effects artist- This piece was to give the feel of the actual character from Planet of the Apes but not be accurate enough to infringe on rights.

Vampi

Ok- it's not digital -other than it's scanned. It's an oil painting of the famous vampire woman from outer space.

Viking Zombie Invasion 900AD.

Viking Zombie Invasion 900AD.

This is a depiction of a recent historical discovery that the invasion of Vikings into Western Europe was, in fact, an invasion of their living dead. Apparently, the frozen, fallen warriors awoke from death upon being revived by defrosting in the warmer climates.

Above the City

Above the City

Based an oil painting I did for a now defunct comic company in 1997, I decided to rework and largely repaint it it digitally. The original was done in about 4 hrs and I thought this showed in many areas being unresolved. I felt it could be taken to a higher level. I also wanted to modify the costume, features,and expression of the woman, so I repainted a great deal of the piece in photoshop.

Feedback is certainly welcome.

This was a commission to be used for a presentation. After sketching out the figure, I painted her in Painter 6. Tom Sorensen did the color work in Photoshop.

Into The Ice

This is a CD cover commissioned by Dancing Ferret Discs for the album "Into the Ice" by the band Paralysed Age. I worked with Tom Sorensen again on this piece. I did the gray scale image in Photoshop and Painter, beginning with a scanned pencil rough that had been approved by the client. Tom did the color and editorial changes.

This piece was done in photoshop and painter. I had rendered the figures and background in sepia tone. Tom added the color and dropped in the silo of the refinery.

Born Anew

Born Anew

This painting is based on a character I used to draw for Lightning Comics called Perg (as in Pergatory). I always enjoyed drawing the book, although I thought his costume too awkward to draw at all the various angles- hence, this version.
