Koi Painting Finished

Finally finished my Koi paintings. Very happy with how my first attempt at a traditional medium has worked out. Looking forward to starting my next set.

Speed Paints

More speedpaints in ArtRage.

This one was to experiment with skin tones... (referenced colors)


This one is an unfinished piece (headress, water)... my version of a young Nefertiti. (referenced colors and headdress)


An African sunset done extremely quickly, would love to redo in Photoshop. (referenced colors)


This was a color/compsition test for a 5 piece traditional painting I'm planning on doing once I'm finished the koi pond... (referenced colors)

Koi Pond WIP

Here is my first attempt at traditional paintings with acrylics. Of course I had to continue with my 'Go Big or Go Home' approach to things and start with a 7 piece painting. :P

Fish blocked in over the water...


Added orange details to the fish...

Added iridescent silver details and lily pads...


 


Next will be the flowers,water ripples and then to finish off with painting the sides black. Wish me luck!
