I have finally managed another update. I have been busy with school, but it was nice to do a personal piece. I wanted to practice an underwater painting with some reflections. Hope you guys like it. The original was created in Corel Painter X and is much larger and higher-res, but this is the best I can get out of Blogger.

WheRe the WiLD ThinGs ARe!

Where the Wild Things Are is a touching movie based on the Maurice Sendak beloved classic. The movie is directed by Spike Jonze with great visual effects by the Jim Henson people. The movie is not for kids, but for adults who read the book when they where children and loved it. It is kind of scary and dark for kids and will be above their heads. The book was kind of dark and so the movie does well to keep this. The movie strikes a strong emotional chord and is more emotionally realistic then most movies. I cannot express how great it is too see a movie set aside CG in favor of real puppets. It lends the characters much more believability and connection. Great movie about family and growing up as a kid. Must see. Great soundtrack too! Follow the link below for a great Fan site.

Here are some sketches I have been working on. Trying to practice the more traditional fundamentals recently. I am focusing on arms and hands right now.

Movie STill Sketch

This is just a practice sketch from Gosford Park. I used Painter X.

Forest Bunny

Hi, here is a night sketch I recently finished. I have been making a lot of custom brushes and papers in Painter X recently and so this is mostly an experiment in brushes. I didn't quite know where I was going with it and it ended up completely different then I started, but I like how it turned out. C&C welcome.

America's Greatest Threat?

Hi Guys, Margaret and I just watched this movie over the weekend. If you have seen "Supersize Me" it is similar to that movie but makes some different points. It really should be watched and shared. Here is the website if you want to watch the trailer and find out some more about it.

Capt. Quint!!

Jaws was recently on TV, and I saw Capt. Quint, which I hadn't seen in awhile. So I thought I would do a painting of the awesomeness that is Capt. Quint (Robert Shaw). Done in Painter X with some custom brushes.

Football skills!

I love football (soccer) and I recently saw this video done for a promo. Features Christiano Ronaldo (one of the best players in the world) and Billy Wingrove, one of the best freestylers. Enjoy the Joga Benito (Beautiful Game)
