DS Threesome

Cosplay Portrait

A little cosplay portrait fun.

Imaginary Landscape

Switching from real landscape to imaginary concoctions - while still trying to maintain a grounded sense of realism - after so much time spent with real world observations, is something I thought would be much easier now. But it turns out to be much harder. Something inside me tells me that is a very good and positive thing (maybe my time exploring landscape has actually taught me a thing or two), yet the frustration is still fresh so I cannot comment objectively right now.

DS Abstracts

DS Stragglers

A few DS scribbles that were missed, skipped, or flipped.

DS Trefor Scribbles

Some DS scribbles to accompany the previous entry, although I should have posted these first.

Goch & Ddu

Square Off!

Here's a quick speedie done using reference from the monthly landscape challenge over on WetCanvas...

I'm enjoying working with these square canvases. They invite more overt use of composition juggling, although it is certainly a little easier for me to fall flat on my face. But then again, I've been too set in my ways when using the DS.

Ode To The Sea IV

Patlabor Homage

A little homage to one of my favorite anime series.

Ink Scratch

Church Stretton Strutt

A few DS landscapes of Church Stretton Hills. The last two paintings in this post are from the same area.

Snow Shots

The recent photo-dump of a local church I posted a few entries back was meant to be a one off, but as most of my digital plein-air output for St. Peter's, which was on a USb stick, has been lost to the outer plane of small household objects; I have, in turn, lost the context that the photographs were meant to represent. So I figure why not post some more photos. I don't really have much to lose at this point.

 Note: The last photo was previously the subject of a little DS painting I did last Autumn. It's rather interesting to revisit the same subject under different conditions - and in this case, different formats. See here for the post that contains my original exploration of the subject.

 As previously, I can only state I have little interest in photography beyond just recording sights to add to my reference folders.
