Of Flesh and Stone

I have always been fascinated by demon lore and mythology, and I was inspired to create this image of a female succubus, slowly revealing herself to her offscreen companion. I thought it would be fun to give her a tail and to have a pair of pet gargoyles at her feet.

Feline Woman

This illustration was a experimental design for a woman with feline features of a bobcat and leopard.  Looking back on it, I would add more feline bone structure to her face and would take out some of the stripes on her front and give her more solid fur.  It was fun and I learned quite a bit from it.

Winter Fairy

This illustration was an assignment I had in the Design class I took in the Fall of 2011.  I had to demonstrate emphasis using value and movement within the composition, the difference between texture/pattern and background/foreground, it had to include a texture illusion or "Trompe L'Oeil", and it needed to be mono-chromatic.  For the texture illusion, I used a silver mesh fabric for part of her wings.

I love this piece and I am very happy with how it turned out.
