A few more of these character paintings.
They are built up in washy layers of acrylic over a very rough pencil sketch xeroxed onto bristol board. Sounds convoluted but actually pretty simple in practice. This style was developed while doing these paintings years ago and is the way I've painted ever since. Maybe something will shake it up one of these days.
In the meantime I still enjoy working this way.
Thinking I may jump over to something else for the next post but will return to more of these soon.

Great Art work, specially because it is from Monkey Island. Where can I found more about the technic that you describe over?
Waiting for more Monkey Island conceptual art...
I love you with french fries.
I love your art, man. You're great! :D
Got anything with a slightly more modern theme? Something within the last century? No babies, please... they scare me.
One day, when I'm repulsively wealthy, I'll get in touch with you Steve, and with Ron Gilbert and i'll finance you guys to hire a great team of names you all trust, and you shall make a Monkey Island movie.
meh...
Great artwork! Are any of your paintings for sale? (I´m from Sweden)
Wow! So sad that this movie was never made...
...and it's so sad the games were never made :(
lol my English it not the best so the technique of painting is something I didn't get. But the artworks speak for themselves. I'd like to see more.
Another great showing.
genious! please tell us the real purpose of these paintings! :D
Blah, no matter how hard I try to emulate your art I get a backfire. :( Your colouring skills alone stupify me.
No matter how fast she climbs, Keira Knightley has no hope of catchiing up to that pirate lady on the Ladder Of Awesome Pirate Ladies.
And if she did, I bet pirate lady would kick her in the face.
Monkey Island FTW!
I'd love to have framed prints of these - hint hint... :D
Thank you for my eyes.
Elain looks much like Kierra here doesn't she :)
Nice art work man
