Smell the Roses

Today’s #digitaldrawing is inspired by the #ferrisbueller quote “#life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” which drifted into my thoughts while coming home from work, followed by “just beware of dragons.“ It’s not a mountain behind the #woman 🙂 Also, it later occurred to me that because it’s Social Media, some may accuse me of misogyny, in that I do a lot of art with the ladies in not the best situations. Realize that almost all scenes can be interchangeable with men, I just choose to focus on the female because I find women to be more fascinating #art subjects. Note that in almost all situations the ladies are not #damsels in distress, they are #warriors magic users, or have some other attributed #empowerment (here she has on #armor and hasn’t seen the #dragon – no #initiative yet). The focus in my work is usually an #Emotion in a point in time, because emotions make beautiful art. I just wanted to make it clear where I stand, because one must consider everything in an age where it’s no longer #artwork that provokes and offends, it’s everything.

White Wedding

I pulled out a #digitalpainting I did in March and re-did it. I wasn’t happy with the original. There’s things I’m not happy with here, but I think It’s much better. I call it ‘White Wedding’ – because I was thinking of the song earlier and Henry VIII. Artistically, I tried to focus on the pain of the figure in the foreground as she pleads for the condemned’s life; balanced against the chaos and pageantry of a #renaissance #execution – I added more depth, with #people #trees #lighting etc. #art #painting #digitalart #digitaldrawing

Resolve

Today’s #digital #doodle isn’t too intense. It’s about #resolve – which is also the title. #digitalart #digitalpainting #digitalillustration #asiangirls #swords and #silk #artoftheday

The Look

My #dystopian #doodle for the day. It’s a combination of potential world-ending issues ongoing atm, #coronavirus (or another unknown) #climatechange etc. Throw in a #beautiful #warrior and it’s all good. I actually did this with her expression in mind, hence entitled ‘The Look’. What is the look? Every #woman has given it at some point; and every partner has received it. What do you think it’s expressing? #digitalart #art #postapocalyptic
