Star Crossed Lovers

Also in the process of painting up my first Seasonal Greeting card.  Its terrifying, so be on the look out for that!

New Finished Painting and LA trip

Personal piece finished in between projects!  Went through many many changes.  The painting started as a nomadic female warrior riding a kangaroo rat reptile thing and ended with rival demon clans waging war in hell!!  I blame it on the fact I painted a percentage of it around the time of Halloween.

It was a tediously frustrating blast to paint and I learned a bunch along the way!

On another note If you would like to see some pics from my recent LA trip sponsored by Ubisoft you can find them on my facebook art page

Deceit

Die young

                                                      
And thou art dead, as young and fair
As aught of mortal birth;
And form so soft, and charms so rare,
Too soon return'd to Earth!
