Location: New England, United States

I am a Hugo award-winning fantasy/SF artist who works on both publishing projects and film concept work(such as Jimmy Neutron and most recently, The Ant Bully) but I have a passion for landscape work, small paintings and exploring the properties of paint. This blog will mostly showcase my "painting-for-the-day" as kind of a personal voyage. I'll also be inserting sketches,photos and ideas of projects I am working on, that I can, when I can, so look for those every so often(usually as paint is drying!)

Camelot...late afternoon, about tea time..

Castle in The Sun(8x10,oils $SOLD)
This had a tad more time spent on it than some of the previous, so hence the bit higher price. This was fun to do the clouds. I started off with the cloudscape which was finished in about 10 minutes, then I went about the landscape. Fun little painting. I also just found out, researching this stuff, that the "mounts" castles appear to be on are called "pogs". You find out something new every day in this business.
The weather was so nasty that clouds and storms have been on my mind lately. I watched the 1956 version of MOBY DICK and it got me in the mood to do some rough seas paintings, storms etc. So that's all to come!
