Hi folks

More pictures that you've probably already seen but I'd appreciate the clicks at the bottom, ta.

Need to do some new stuff now, good job I started something yesterday.

What do the clicks do? Is it a competition?

I really like them. Very well done.

Makes me feel very uncreative, given the most artistic thing I've ever done was that robot costume last week.

I'd like Glooper as a poster or t-shirt.

Thanks for all the comments folks. :kiss:

Heh, maybe if I had a little more left hemisphere I could make money from it. :)

I can only draw my porkers, fireworks and coke. :DD

Post subject:  Re: Stick your thumb up

I smell the opportunity to leverage some synergy here, with the formation of Zardoz-Caveman Inc. Cavey's left brain handles the cash and the business stuff, Zardoz's right brain knocks out the art, and everyone retires in 5 years time a multi-millionaire. Or it works the other way around, and I really don't want to think about what that could result in.

It's a great and wonderful collection, Zardoz.

I clicked the thumb for you :p

Yeah. I've a wee soft spot for Glooper :)

Also, your redesign over at paint & pixel looks pretty smart.

Anyone *not* considering giving Zardoz money for art should look at my office wall.

Maybe you should give him money for plaster.

I'll do anything if the money's right.

Is that by Zardoz?

Where can I view such things online? I didn't see it on your portfolio, Z.

Author:  DavPaz [ Sat Feb 12, 2011 13:11 ]
Post subject:  Re: Stick your thumb up

I commissioned an original based on a toy that I've bought for the babbie. Z hasn't added it to his portfolio yet but he has my blessing to do so

I don't know why you didn't just settle for one of Z's older classics for the nursery wall...

It's exactly the kind of picture needed for a nursery.

That is most excellent, and has got me wondering about asking for a similar thing but with a different toy obv - there is a baby due in our family and it would make a lovely gift.

Thanks for the comments, and yeah, hadn't included it anywhere online myself as it wasn't personal work. I'll be adding to my own site soon along with some other new stuff.

Post subject:  Re: Pimp My Art Out

Recently finished two paintings that are now on the lounge wall. I'd been snapping away as I'd been doing these (and everything since) so you can see what I did yet as I went along. I started out only with an idea in my head, and began straight away with acrylic paint on unprimed canvases without making any sketches.

Priming and background:

Image

Underpainting of flowers:

Image

Giving them more form:

Image

Adding in some pattern/background elements:

Image

Now, I should have taken a couple more shots of a few more stages here, but I didn't.

Doing loads of mad shit and coating the petals in washes of really thinned down paint to glaze it:

Image

You all owe me £12.

Shit, I've plonked this in Snappa thread, not my last one. :DD

Mods can you stick this in the "Stick your thumb up" thread plz?

You know, while I like the finished product, the first photo is the picture I'd like to have on my wall.

Thanks, I liked it too at that stage.

...and I have high res photos available of it for prints. ;)
