The Hidden Library 01

The Hidden Library 01 - I'm doing an experiment over at Deviantart where I'm doing a painting from start to finish with the aid of the online community's suggestions/critiques. I thought I would post the process over here, too.

The Hunt

Nothing much to say, other than this started as a thumbnail a sketch I did last year for James Paick's online masterclass.

Everyone Wants To Be A Hero

I leave a suggestive title so you can decide if this guy makes it or if he is just a bit too ambitious...

Peaceful Kingdom

Some months ago I created a new folder with unfinished paintings/sketches and also intermediate steps of finished paintings. Basically it's a collection of a lot of crappy images I did over the last years that I think had some potential if taken further or reworked. This is one of my attempts to try and make something interesting out of something not worth looking at. Let me know your thoughts.

Winter Village

Commissioned concept I did last year...

Dark Days To Come

Image inspired by the work of masters Khang Le and Maciej Kuciara, two artists I greatly admire...

Warriors2

A fleshed out version of the previous sketch...

Warriors

Rougher work, which sometimes has the appeal of not showing everything to the viewer making it more engaging. My focus was on composition, color and pose.
Overworking a painting can lead to uninteresting results so instead I decided to share this image where the "paint" is still fresh...

Zombie Overrun

Probably inspired by "Undead Nightmare"...Gotta love them zombies!

Requiem

Here's an image I did for my musician friend Pedro Macedo Camacho.

Hidden Tomb

This is the last of the rocks+tower series.

Twin Falls

Third in the "tower with rocks" series...I hope you can hear the roaring of the waterfalls and feel the chill in the air...

Watchtower

Second of the 4 tower-series paintings...

Empire of the Saviours

A book cover I did last year.

Summit

Testing techniques and ways to approach a painting. This is one of a series of 4 paintings I did with a similar theme.

Forest Temple II

This is the other Forest Temple painting I did simultaneously as the previous post...same ingredients: big tree, forest, 2 characters and a temple.
