Some ART Collages

I am trying to put myself to sleep, which led to spamming my Instagram and Twitter account will collages of some of my finished artworks so far. Some of which were commissioned pieces and all are available as digital prints at the ART shop.

I like the "pencils to finish" series I posted at my IG and Twitter accounts. You kinda appreciate ( at least for me ) the work put into each piece, from pencil to colors ( digital or watercolors ).

I hate sleeping, it is such a waste of precious time. But one has to sleep. Anyways, I am off to sleep now... Do check these ART pieces at the ART shop if you have the time. Thanks as always for dropping by! Until next post guys! CIAO!

Deadpool Watercolor Illustration

Just finished this Deadpool watercolor illustration. This is a commissioned work. I did this in between a couple of huge commissioned paintings. The warping of the paper was insane due to the heavy washes on the backgrounds and red parts of Deadpool's costume. But once dried, the paper was not as warped.

This Deadpool was inspired from the movie, but I intentionally made him look thinner. I like the thinner look as he reminds me of Spiderman ( must be the eyes ). Anyways, this watercolor illustration is now available at the ART shop, link below guys! :)

Colored Trollbloods Inspired Poster

People love colors! So due to popular demand, I figured I do a colored version of my Trollbloods inspired poster. Characters were based on characters from Privateerpress.com .

It has been a while since I digitally colored an artwork. I tend to lean toward traditional watercolors and inks or pens. But there was no way to color this piece, as it was originally drawn over an ordinary illustration board. Ordinary illustration boards ( black back ) are fairly good for inks and markers... But they cannot handle watercolor washes.

So I colored this piece digitally. Had fun coloring it, but not as fun when I do watercolors and inks. Not a fan of digital work, as I am a graphic artist for 18 years now. Anyways, I hope people will love this colored version. Both the pen and ink and the colored version are available at the ART shop as digital prints. Digital prints are now as big as 30x24 inches. Do check them out...

Endor Watercolor Painting

Inspired by and while waiting for client feedback earlier, I managed to finish this quick watercolor painting of Endor with a Walker. I am enjoying watercolors so much these days as I tend to do them while waiting for client feedbacks and approvals. One of these days, will work on more elaborate watercolor painting.

As usual, this is now available at the ART shop. I replaced the least popular ART print at the shop, as I try to maintain just 50 prints on the site. This is categorized as a painting, much like the other Star Wars paintings I finished recently. Link of the ART print below...

20 x 30 and 16 x 24 ART Prints!

The wife claimed these 30 x 20 and 16 x 24 ART prints earlier today. Did not inspect them until just now. Man they are huge! The original drawing / illustration was drawn in a 15 x 20 illustration board, so basically both the 30 x 20 and 16 x 24 are picture blow ups. But they look so good! I have yet to print a 30 x 20 for myself tho, as I am afraid of the cost of having them framed.

Seeing your artwork blown up to 30 x 20 feels so good! I can stare at the huge prints for hours. I had all my ART prints printed at a KODAK photo print shop. They are a bit costly, but the customers paid for them anyways. NO extra income for both the shipping and printing costs of all my ART prints.

I will need to sign and number all these prints and ship them as soon as I can! I high recommend the 16 x 24s as they are the perfect size. But the 30 x 20 ART prints are so dang nice on any wall! Do check out the ART shop in the link below...

Darth Vader Watercolor Painting

Just finished this Darth Vader watercolor painting. I needed to kill time as I wait for a client feedback ( Timezone problems ). So I decided to start another Star Wars watercolor painting. This is Van Gogh tube watercolors on thick 425gsm 9x12 inch watercolor paper.

This was a fun piece. ART print of this piece is now at the ART SHOP below...

Darth Sidious Watercolor Painting

I just finished this Darth Sidious watercolor painting. This piece would compliment the Yoda piece I just finished yesterday. Wife and kids won't be too enthused when they see this painting for sure!

I like the overall feel of this piece. However I feel I could do better. I had zero reference when drawing Darth Sidious, unlike Yoda. Not too happy with the realism of the image as the lighting is solely base on imagination.

I will be working on a couple of huge commissioned piece later. But will sure to produce more Star Wars watercolor paintings in between commissions.

Anyways, I have to go to sleep now. Thanks as always for dropping by! Ciao!

Yoda Watercolor Painting

I just finished this Watercolor painting of Yoda. I needed a practice piece before a couple of huge and colored commissioned illustrations. Yoda turned out fine. I like him very much. I am actually glad it is not a commissioned piece, as I get to keep it for a change.

I used Prismacolor watercolor pencils in sketching Yoda. No pencil marks for this painting, as those magical pencils dissolve with water. I then used Van Gogh watercolors and a bit of Prang ( but mostly VanGogh ) in rendering the whole piece. I love water colors so much! They are very relaxing to use! Very watery! LMAO.

Anyways, I made LIMITED digital copies of this painting at the ART SHOP... link below...

YODA DIGITAL PRINT

I enjoyed this so much, thinking of making more Star Wars watercolor paintings in between commissioned work illustrations!

Digital Prints Are Looking Good!

I was supposed to meet my best friend from my old day job today, but I was carrying tons of plastic tubes ( for shipping the artworks and prints ), a huge roll of Watercolor paper ( for a couple of watercolor commissioned artworks ), tons of digital prints and a paper bag of food for my kids. So, me and my friend decided to call off our date ( insert emoji here ).

I am so stoked when I unwrapped the digital prints at home! All the photos here were taken on top of our dining table ( bad warm lighting ), and they look nicer in person! I don't know if it's just me, but seeing a ton of reproduction of my drawings, and the idea that I will be shipping this all over ( mostly US and one to France ) made me sooo happy today.

The prints are mostly 8 x10. But there are a handful of huge 12 x 15 and 12 x 18 prints too! The bigger prints, specially the POSTER ART I just did, look so darn good! I could just imagine the larger 16 x 24 and 20 x 30 prints! The larger prints take two days to process ( print ). Will be getting them by Friday.

I know it might sound HARD SELL, but I must say they really look so dang good! The colored artworks stand out so much, as the colors are so vibrant. The texture of the photo paper is matte ( but they have a shine in some angles ). Nevertheless, they are very good reproduction of my artworks. I am very glad I decided to have them printed at a KODAK Photo Printing shop, rather than in a normal home printer. It's not about saving cost, it's about sharing good quality prints after all.

I can't wait to see the huge 20 x 30s by Friday! I will then have to sign and number each print once all prints are here. I decided to make all the prints LIMITED. Giving them a bit more value in time ( specially when I die already - LMAO ). Artworks regardless of style, gain more value once the artist dies ( fact ). hehehe

Anyways, pardon for spamming all my social media accounts with photos of all these prints. I am just too happy seeing them on our dining table today! Thanks as always for dropping by! Until next post guys! CIAO!

Darth Vader ART

Just finished this Darth Vader INK Painting. I used Vallejo Acrylic Ink to render this piece. I used mainly brushes and ink. Diluted the ink with ordinary tap water for the shading. The black ink has a brownish tint when diluted, but I like the warm effect. This was painted on a 9 x 12 inch 425gsm watercolor paper.

This is now available in very limited copies of 20 at the ART SHOP! Link of the SHOP below...
