Digital art has a steep learning curve
I started doing my own thing, silly little cartoon creatures. They are cute but not the sort of art I want to produce so I started to see the spitpaint on Facebook as a way to learn. I need to be able to produce art... Chiefly, for galleries. I could tell you about the quality… Continue reading Digital art has a steep learning curve
Finished and ready…
Tunnels is having its final edit and the cover is complete. I'm just working on the small illustrations for the inside.

The Cry
I think this is finished but I may just tweak it a little later. Oil on card
Painting – is it like riding a bike?
That was the question that flowed around my mind this afternoon. I haven't picked up a paintbrush in six years. Today I did. And the result is nowhere near finished but I am pleased. It looks like it will be a fairly decent painting... At least I hope it is going to be. This will… Continue reading Painting – is it like riding a bike?
