Rainbow Fish Development

Marker sketches done for early development on a series back a number of years now.

The New Art Festival

If you happen to be in the fine city of Ottawa; Canadas capital, do your soul a favour and come look at great art. Did I mention I'd be there too. I'm at site 8 on the north pathway. Check out the map below.

New Work

This post is dedicated to my buddy Kyle Marshall. It has been a spell, and I've actually been distracted by a couple of art shows coming up soon. I've been trying to paint every night after work. Here are some samples of oil paintings for those shows.

Mischief City Early Concept Designs

Marker and pencil sketches for early development and preliminary design.

Rough Waters, with rough pencil sketches

More thumbnail sketches of tanker done with pencil and imported texture.

Pier Thumbnail Sketches

These are some thumbnail sketches of Piers. Not sure what brought this on.

Wine Labels

A friend had given me the idea to create wine labels; using some of my paintings.  Of course the intent was to go to the actual vineyard and paint plein air style.  For these examples I just used some out door paintings (not wine related).  In the end the result was my paintings are a little too big on the label.  The vineyards name probably should be more prominent.  The names and info on the labels are bogus of course.  They were used as sizing examples , and font type only.
