Water Colors

I always liked using water colors but I never got into it, but since my friend Shao Wei a great artist at work introduced me to her watercolors and the work of the great masters, such as Cotman, Girtin, Turner, Homer, Sargent's work here showing his masterpiece of Venice and many others. I got myself emerged in it as of lately.

Digital Painting - Victoriana but missing love

Finally some original work and not another study.

Having some fun with digital painting.

Victoriana awaiting a phone call of a loved one.

(That phone is straight up pulse by the way)

Left inspired by a my good and talented friend Raz, at work.

He gave me some amazing tips on painting from your mind,

resuming, its all about straights and curves!

Other inspirations album cover for a vinyl for the Beatles, with a touch of Mad Men.

Digital Painting - Egyptian Fan

This started as a weird life drawing my friend invited me to, in a classic victorian San Franciscan 5 story house, the whole thing reminded me of Eyes Wide Shut, the movie... I was there to draw.

Inspired pehaps unconsciously by the revolution in Egypt at the time, mixing it with Conan the barbarian.

Digital Painting - Fancy Escargot. A Gala event like no other

A group of us were atempting to do daily draiwings a little back ago, we actually got somethings in, when we had some down time. I did this for fun when doodling spirals, this came to mind...

Eurice e Orfeu

Isso 'e mesmo uma velha historia.

Milhares de anos atra's, Orfeu era triste e melanco'lico,

mas um dia as cordas de seu violao que apenas seu amor procurou,

veio uma voz falar dos beijos perdidos dos la'bios de Eurice.

This is really an old story,

Thousands of years ago, Orpheus was sad and melancholic

but one day of the strings of his guitar that only his love searched,

It came a voice to speak of the lost kisses from Eurydice's lips.
