A reason I've grown to dislike small art markets: The prominence of shitty Al art at many vendors. Not a fan of being surrounded by professional prompters who view the creation of art as just some pesky thing that the computer will take care of

The Davis Law Firm got into a fight with 4 Injured Texans... #austin #texas #copywriterhelp

This is great for artists looking for reference photos. Bravo!!!

Train Collector. Pencils and digital. Painted in Corel Painter. This is will be the last post in awhile. I am working on some new artwork and it takes time before they are ready. #trains #digitalart #kaiju #monster

Skeleton Party - Pencils/ Digital painting. Painted with Corel Painter. Couple of notes: Drawing the backgrounds and the skeletons took most of my time. When painting, I used a limited palette of mostly browns and blues only. #skeleton #digitalart #skeletons

Crows. Pencils and Digital. Painted with Corel Painter #crows #scarecrow #digitalart

Queen of Hearts. Digital and pencils. Painted with Corel Painter.

Chrome Cowboys - Pencils / Digital. Painted with Corel Painter

Pistol 'Pede. The red headed centipede is common in parts of Texas and the southwest. I thought it was funny if he had a western vibe to him so I added the cowboy hat, bandolier and the guns. The actually centipede was modelled in Zbrush and painted over in Corel Painter.

Robots- An older piece. Pencils/Digital. Painted with Corel Painter. Original drawing was created on two large sheets 20 by 16. The bottom was all experimental shapes. The top layer was on a transparent sheet. Everything was scanned in pieces and composited together.

Baba Yaga - My version of the figurehead from eastern European/Russian folklore. Pencils/Digital. Painted with Corel Painter. The animal skull on the right is made up but I looked at a lot of animal skulls for reference. I used photos for the other elements and drew everything by hand.

My website is up - It's in Beta so changes are coming in the future. I taught myself how to code it from scratch so yeah......Here it is: www.18marks.com

Bruce Dickinson (singer of Iron Maiden) with an awesome t-shirt. This is a screenshot from his instagram account. That t shirt was designed by @bsienk.bsky.social , a comic artist. #brucedickinson #ironmaiden #billsienkiewicz #noai #fuckai

I tend to draw on paper first. Usually I do a couple of rough sketches, then work on large sheet of paper (16 by 20 usually). Afterwards I scan the image or images and paint them with a digital art program like Corel Painter. My workflow is subject to change though. #corel #corelpainter
