Traditional works
0 min read
I have recently picked up the brush (a real one not a digital one). I haven't done any real traditional paintings since college and even then it was only a few acrylics done in first year. I decided to try working with oils, and it has been immensely rewarding. My first painting tentatively named "Finding light" has been submitted, and I plan on doing more paintings very soon (abstract landscapes). I would love to get your feed back on these submissions!

Quick paints to exercise the flab
0 min read
I have been trying to do some daily sketch/paints in Photoshop as I have been so long out of touch with that aspect of my art. Getting back into it hasn't exactly been like "riding a bike" but the daily (or rather semi-weekly) quick paints are helping. I will be including some in my scrap book http://steeldolphin.deviantart.com/gallery/?catpath=scraps if anyone is interested in seeing them, they are certainly far from being full featured deviations but any comments you have are - as always welcome. These are done in Photoshop taking anywhere from 10min to 45min or so.

So my last entry on DA is in 2007, I need to get my shit together. I am working at the art thing again, but I have really fallen off the track and need to get back into shape so to speak. I hope to be posting some art soon... but then again I have said that before.
Cheers

Found this through going to the link for the Steeldolphin tutorials and found out the site wasn't loading for some reason. So I was hoping somewhere had it, even if it was stolen. I was desperate, I say!!! Instead I found this. Not the tutorials, but still pretty.
will you draw something for me?
im considering a tattoo on my back. i want angel wings, and theyre gonna leave a big circle in the middle.
i was considering getting a battle between good angels, and bad ones. i want them to look realistic, and im asking several people for this, so see what i want. free hands mostly, and all in all, it should be fun to draw?
its a black, white, red, and gray tattoo, so all i can say is that i want at least soome angels on top ready to fly downwards, and some looking up with theyre sword raised. i dont want any faces, and i want body armour. if u ever played diablo 2, ud know what i mean, and i only found a couple of bad pictures, but im adding a couple of links to show what i mean:
[link] [link] . the pictures are really small, and i want wings like [link] . up to you ^^
