Checkout this months edition of ImagineFX magazine (issue 79). There’s a really interesting piece on Wayne Barlowe that I highly recommend, quite surreal!
If you’re interested in gaming theres some interesting concept work for Batman Arkham Asylumn thats well worth taking a look at.
However I reserve the best to last, make sure you get to see the excellent sketches by John Howe an artist who’s work I greatly admire. Oh and did I mention that I have two Q&A sections in this months edition?
One of the QA’s you might recognise if you’ve looked through my gallery before. I’ve changed my colourful sunset for the QA article and given it more of a fantasy theme. The other QA is a new sketch that I made in artrage for a three step explanation of how to paint decaying flowers.
As always I am really honored to have my words and pictures featured in ImagineFX magazine, but more than all I recommend it as a quality publication for all lovers of the digital fantastic!
I have again been fortunate to write in the QA columns of ImagineFX magazine. This month I provide a three-step answer on painting feet! Halfling feet in fact, it was quite an interesting question from a reader and one I was happy to answer. I also covered the subject of colour from greyscale using one of my existing works ‘dragon Lord’ as the main illustration. Fortunately I had archived the original greyscale version so it was a perfect example for the answer I gave to the readers.
As always these were fun to do and as ever the magazine is fun and informative to read. There are some great paintings and articles on art nouveau and in particular the works of Mucha that I’d highly recommend taking a look at. ImagineFX issue 78 is still available at the newsagents, so go buy today!
Checkout the Art Class is this months ImagineFX magazine (issue 70). I was fortunate enough to mentor a very talented young artist from Brazil by the name of Luisa Rafida. We corresponded over her fantasy painting and I provided help in the form of advice and technical know how. It was really fun to do and Luisa was a great student. You can see the final result on Luisa’s Deviantart art page here
Checkout my new Q&A and my classic flying saucer in the A-Z of Sci-Fi in Januarys edition of ImagineFX (Out Now) . I painted a six headed monster for one of the Q&As which was really fun to do, and I got to paint an alien abduction which was pretty cool too!
Looking forward to the Christmas holiday and spending time with my family now. Have a great xmas and a happy new year to you all!
With winter upon us and the New Year fast approaching I was very happy to see my two Q & A columns in this months ImagineFX magazine.
The picture I painted for one of the articles very much had winter in mind! In fact I liked doing it so much that I’ve reworked the image in Santa colours and made it into a family Christmas card! Not quite Father Christmas, more a gnome or dwarf in festive spirit.
So I will encourage anyone reading to purchase this month’s ImagineFX magazine and read through and marvel at all the wonderful stuff inside!
Speaking of XMAS check out my prints at deviantart. There are canvas prints, greeting cards, mouse pads, mugs and puzzles as well as prints featuring my artwork available for purchase.
