Scuttler.

Saw this scuttling across a field of blue mushrooms in my imagination. I love painting with blue colours at the moment, hope its not the same as the sadness in Picasso's blue period.

Domincs Work.

My friend Dominic has recentley graduated from a BA Hons degree at Leeds University in the UK. Hes a fine artist who specialises in the grotesque and other macabre subject matter, over the last few years he has begun to experiment with oil paints and has had a lot of success using them.



Dominic regularily updates his blog which can be found here: Dominics Blog

Silly Men.

 Needed a break from doing pure concept design so tried doing a little bit of character sketching with absolutely no context.

which one works better though? colour or black and white.

Rig in the Woods.

Messing about on photoshop again trying to create very quick concepts, hybridising line drawings and photographs now quite alot.

Rigs on Water.

Some more thumbnail designs for rigs, going to explore designs that dont sit on top of water, oil is found in differnt places.

Ugly Beasty.

Some more thumbnails and sketches, trying to flesh this guy out a little more both in movement and personality. Ive been looking at real life animals like dart frogs and rhacodactylus geckos.



On the Ice.

Beginning to use photo's as a basis for quick concepts as more of a necessity now than a curious experiment. Im quite busy now working on the concept project that I mentioned about after FMX, with most of my free time going towards this project it doesnt really leave me with the time to develop any of my own ideas so Im using this as a opportunity to see how well I can create the primitive stages of a concept development in a small amount of time.

This is carrying on with the idea generation for a fuel rig type structure on a foregin planet in the future.
