leftovers

Really trying to get back to updating this blog daily ... it should be easier than it has been. Here's an image that came about when I threw the left over red acrylic on to a piece of thin cardboard before it dried out and was useless. I touched it up with some pen and watercolor afterwards ... might play with it more but here it is so far.
I think I might start taking progress shots of these images ... help show my process a little. Whatcha think of that idea?

revamping

It's all about revamping the direction I've been taking things. I seem to be getting a lot more attention lately and I need to start taking things a little more serious. When looking back I find that I've actually accomplished quite a lot with my art, and the 1000 zombies project. Now I have a whole slew of people that are championing me and my art and encouraging me to take things to another level. 
This summer has been quite trying though ... kids home all day, swimming lessons, soccer practice now and all sorts of outings to take advantage of the short summer. Work has suffered and my brain feels much like my studio ... cluttered and disorganized.

That being said ... I still get stuff done and have been learning how to paint with oil paint, and zombies 101-150 are all going to be done in oils. If it goes really well, 151-200 will be as well.


I'm also dusting off some old larger canvases and starting to play around with them. This one is one I had started about 2 years ago and just pulled it out today.


Now the wife is calling me, so before I go I'll leave you with zombies 1-100


cya soon

Cheshire zombie cat

Another funded zombie for the 1000 zombies art project. This is the Cheshire Cat as revisioned by me. Still going strong with the painting, getting a little better at it too. If you want to see the creation of this one, check out the video on youtube.
Want to be a part of the zombie horde and get your own zombie portrait ... it's as low as 10 bucks, more info on my main website.

painting doodle

This is my newest favourite piece and it was done just as a painting doodle. Definitely going to do a lot more of these in the coming weeks. Can you spot the zombie? ;)

the next 50 has begun

The next 50 zombies for the 1000 zombies art project have begun ... and this time they are being painted with acrylics. No line work ... and the results will be obviously different than the first 50.
Why do acrylics?
To grow as an artist mainly, and add some variety to the project. Whatcha think?

zombie test

I'm testing a new style/technique I want to use for the next 50 zombies ... and while it's not perfect yet, I think I'm off to a decent start. I know in my head what I want it to look like, its just a matter of reaching in and bringing it out. The zombie above was once Paige.
