here are just some of the paintings I've been working on

The miskatonic riverside nearly complete. This is an acrylic I'm finishing in casein. Its based off of a thumbnail of a classical painting I saw in some book.

11x14 with a 1 inch margin Faputa A close up of faputa roaring . Watercolor, 11x14 bleed. Fully blocked in but not close to done .

Micah ~12x8. Just past the sketch stage . study of " A fighting man of mars " by frazetta colored in some of the background today .

11x14 with a half inch margin. watercolor study of a Bret blevins painting of a reclining figure already sent

kirins space castle kinda botched

countess bathory ( The toilet of countess bathory, I guess ? ) fully prepared sketch and painted once on another sheet filigree dancer this casein painting is also basically done and I've just let it sit for a while . needs touching up.

+ a lot of sketch book stuff I should probably devote more time to other stuff besides painting. esp. now that I don't have sound on my music . I've got a lot of reading and stuff to do. but I kind of don't care right now.
