My dad loves old war planes, so I decided to paint him this for his birthday.

Self Portrait

Self Portrait I painted last night. I personally don't think it looks like me, but I plan to do more and hopefully get better.

I decided to do a portrait painting of my grandpa who recently passed away. He will be missed very much

Gypsy wagon

This is a personal project I have been working on during my free time away from film work. My main aim was to just improve upon my digital painting.

Matt Dixon Artist study

I realised that I have not done enough artist studies lately. So I thought I would do a study from one of Matt Dixons paintings. Im am going to try and do a study every day to improve upon my painting skills

Sunday evening painting

I have not been doing much painting recently as I have been working on my 3rd year film. But I had nothing to do last night and thought it a good opportunty to do a digital painting. This is our student kitchen.

Christmas holiday drawings

Could not afford christmas presants this year, so I decided to do drawings for my family. I had a lot of fun doing these.

Still Life 02

This is my 2nd attempt at a digital still life painting. Still trying to paint quicker yet still capture as much from it as I can. Here I have painted some fruit shakers in a fruit bowl.

Digi Sketches

I have been keen to try and start doing some quick digital painting sketches using my wacom and I really enjoy it. Its helping me break away from focusing on detail too early in a painting. This way I work faster by just finding shapes and capturing quick poses.

My first digital still life painting

Today was a cold and windy day, so decided to do a still life painting, using photoshop. This will be my first digital still life painting and Im quite happy with it. I definitly learnt a lot doing this.

Nigel Brown

A portrait of my cousin Nigel who passed away recently. You will always be missed.

Country Path

Never painted an outdoor scene before and found a old photograph I had taken and got inspired.

More painting!

I really want to improve my painting skills on photoshop, especially when it comes to painting faces and detail. So I chose a still from Pirates of the Caribbean to copy from and Im quite happy with the end result.

The Last Samurai painting study

I felt like i needed to learn about using textures in photoshop and I tend to us only one type of brush. So i chose a still image from the film the last samurai. I wanted to try and capture the roughness of the forrest and the texture and pattern in the cloth used for the clothing.
