Godzilla Revisit

So almost a year ago I did a Godzilla painting where he is fighting Mecha Godzilla. Well I went back to that painting and did some digital work on top of it, making Godzilla more rough and scaly. So here is the new painting, below is the original.

Figure Paintings!

So this last semester at Watts Atelier I took a figure painting class. Now I haven't done figure painting in 4 or 5 years, lots of portrait and still life, but not figure. These were done in Sir Erik Gist's class, yes he has been knighted by the unholy undead, scary stuff... Anyways the class was quite the challenge and a lot of fun. Paintings wouldn't have come out as nice if it wasn't for his help. The girl sitting was done in broader range palette and the other two were done in Zorn palette. Paintings were done in 6-9 hours.

More Arms

Arm studies from today.

Anatomy - Arms

Some anatomy studies I did today. I wanted to focus on doing just arms. I have been slacking on my anatomy studies and I need to do more of them. I am waiting for one more painting to dry and then I will post some figure paintings from class.

Anatomy

I havent posted in a few weeks mainly due to the fact that I have been in a drawing rut. I feel like I cant draw well and the last several life drawings I have done I have not been happy with. I haven't done any anatomy studies in some time, so I thought I should do some and finally update my blog. I do have some life paintings that need to be posted as soon as I get the chance to photograph them I will do it. I probably should shave my face too, I haven't done that in awhile as well, maybe that's why I feel like I cant draw lately, cant focus cause of the itch.
