    New paintings

    Friday, April 3, 2009, 12:58 AM CST [General]

    These paintings have been finished for a while, and now I'm finally getting to posting them. I'm really proud of the dragon. The acrylic over watercolor really worked well for it. I don't think I would have been able to do the same with watercolor. Yay for progress!

    Watercolor how to paint book

     

    Finally I am ready to take pre-orders of the book I spent half of 2008 illustrating. It features walkthroughs for 12 paintings as well as pages on techniques and ideas for painting fairies and backgrounds.

    I'm taking pre-orders for signed copies on my website. I will also include a mini of the cover art. The release date is March 1, but I may be able to get them from the publisher earlier.

    Sorry I haven't posted in a while. But in that time I did manage to get a lot of art done. I think I'm changing the way I use color a bit, at least in the paintings I do for myself. I'm having a lot more fun with color glazing.
