It’s over 10 days since my last update on this piece in progress, and it might not look like it’s that different, but I logged in over 20 hours of work on small changes. The deal is that I’m improving my skills at realism while executing this, so there are areas I keep working over…

The third in the series, and I sat on this one for a long time. There were some technical difficulties towards the end, such as in making the monster’s appendages persuasively symmetrical (working anatomically and compositionally). If I share an earlier version, you’ll understand why. Below you can see I’d drawn in a couple appendages…

This kind of piece stands on its own, needs no placard, no description, no interpretation, no translation, no perusing a CV, no background or context, and no assaying the significance of the biology of the artist. The only reason to read any further is if you are curious to know more. Sometimes it seems like…

[Appended to recategorize into my ongoing series, Imagine That] It’s just a wee bit odd to propose this as the first in a new series, as this is a core example of the type of art I do going back decades, including the technique (though I used to do this in charcoal). Let me just…

This is the 2nd piece in my new series. If you are one of my perspicacious fans, you’ll have seen this before, but it’s a larger, revised, impasto version, which will be more evident in the close-ups. The original is below: I could have probably done with just touching up the original, but I wanted…
Read MoreHere are 39 aliens, monsters, and robots (and an android or mutant or two…). I don’t consider myself a sci-fi artist, but these are all sci-fi creatures with a fine art sort of treatment. You an watch the slide show or click in the gallery below it. I recommend watching the slide show through once!…

Sometimes people don’t feel like reading, and prefer to just watch a video. Haven’t made a video in a while because I haven’t had software to do it with. I can just do a basic video with my new software, but I wanted to try just talking about a piece (not reading anything) and adding…

Here’s a gallery of my recent art that is about science fiction directly, influenced by it, or I think would appeal to people who like it. Click on any of the images to go into the gallery. [You can see the same images at the bottom, where you can click on them for full screen…

Video version of the original article from “Frontier Science Report”. The original has been taken down, but I haven’t been asked to remove my copy. Maybe because I live outside of the U.S..

This is different from my other digital paintings in that it’s done from a scan of my physical, acrylic painting below. The painted version was based on a brush and India ink drawing I made first, then painted over, which is why it had bold black outlines. Because I worked directly in ink without any…

Robot and monster battling it out to destruction.This started as a brushed India ink drawing, which I executed on the spot in one go. This was difficult because I had to invent simultaneously with drawing. Next time I think I’ll sketch it in pencil first. I added color with watercolor pencils, but eventually moved to…

Blast from the past ballpoint drawing. Sometimes, rarely, I will sit down with a ballpoint pen and just start drawing. It’s a style I developed when I was a kid. My parents had custom ballpoints made for their business, so they were always around. I wasn’t receiving art training. I just drew monsters, robots/cyborgs, spaceships,…

The Merman is under-appreciated in comparison to the mermaid, and for good reason, if you think about it some. Well, that thought occurred to me one fine day, and so I made this cartoon explaining the plight of the undervalued merman.
