Relating To Gustav Klimt

September 27, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Hello to all my friends, I am sorry I have not posted as much as I should be. I would like to share a another great blog writer and artist Chris Oatley and his experience at a Gustav Klimt exhibit “Gustav Klimt: The Magic Of Line featured a hundred face-meltingly awesome Klimt drawings”. Where he got inspired in Los Angeles California at his favorite art museum!   When Chris got home he turned his notes into an awesome new blog post. 

I know you’re gonna love it.

I can really relate to artist Gustav Klimt and his transition from more realistic work to his more symbolistic period. I also feel my work tends to lean in his direction of Symbols, linear, and expression of mood in my own work. Here some of his work! I love the fact he drew all the time!

Christian Website Illustrations

(Click on image to see the right proportions, Thank You!)

Even though I have been having some real challenges with this project,  the client Berkley Badger has been a true blessing, he has his certain visions and I believe we have together made what he has envisioned! I have had alot of up and downs as far as feeling thrilled about this project, but know when it is to a point where we are both happy, it is all worth it!. Most of the work has been spent on the crowd, which we went from really hellish type crowd to a more normal somber crowd. Most of the work was also spent in the value underpainting stage, the feet, hands and the crowd was the most time consuming, and then the coloring was added. The client wanted me to find photographs online to paste and use photoshop to paint into it and to make it all work. In traditional Illustration there as been artist using collages pasted in there work to make it a more real artsy look, and I believe that is what we have achieved?  Here is  the two final Illustrations and please make sure to watch the video I made with the vine of truth! I feel truly blessed to have the chance to help glorify God thru my talents! Peace out!

Vine of Truth

 

Here is how I originally wanted to paint the crowd in the front!

Pastor Lucas Hillman

September 9, 2012 By Leave a Comment

When it comes to this awsome guy all I can say is amazing! I have known him about 4 years, and he just grows on me. I always wanted to draw him and while I was waiting in church for my wife to get done with their youth group leaders meeting I saw a really great photo of him (sorry my battery died so I couldn’t take a picture of it, soo I mostly finished rendering him from memory) He is the youth leader at my church, and has become a great friend, I had other work I should have been working on but I just had to get to certain point with his sketch. I hope I can revisit this soon, but for now here is Lucas Hillman youth pastor at my church Grace Christian fellowship and great friend!

Good morning, here is a close up of a photoshop coloring I just did on top of another artist line work “Josh Mathus” (out of Europe). I was asked by my client from “Bass Angler Magazine” to color it and he is going to show recognition to both of us 🙂 I will share more once the magazine is out! Have a great day!

I had some time after doing alot of restoration in my hose. The Caricaturama 3000 Showdown in Facebook is a great way to get feed back from other artist and make your self work on your portfolio. I know it is not extremely exergerated. put I wanted it to be subtle. Well here is Bogart. Let me know if you would like a print!

I was really close recently to go back to Sweden Gothenburg where I grew up, but for financial reason again I was not able to. I will have to just trust that my lord and savior will provide one day an opportunity to go back after almost 21 years. Here is a recent commission I just did for a family that wanted to give it as a gift. I am in the middle of now painting my new Bathroom so I better get back! See ya all later and as usual comments are always welcomed 🙂
