Here's a new commission piece that I just shipped out to another happy collector. "Dark Armor" was done with Graphite and measures in at 8"x10". I can imagine a lot more that I could do with this idea and maybe different mediums, but in the time frame I had, I'm pretty happy with the outcome. The collector was too, which is always a reason to smile.
Peacoctopus (Commission Piece)
I had put together a birthday card illustration piece for a good friend last year, and she loved the concept so much that I was commissioned to do a full illustration that she plans to get tattooed. Very cool, and very flattering. :-)
The original was done with a micron pen, pretty sure there was some graphite sketch work that was done beforehand to get the composition down. The final color piece was done digitally using my wacom intuos 3 tablet. The print came out fairly decent, but I am still on the hunt for a good print shop to work with...
Here is the final:
