LIMBO

Boy, this game came out of nowhere for me. Up until the last week or so I hadn't even really heard of it, at least I didn't think it interested me. By chance, I watched one of the video reviews for it and thought it looked pretty cool and then I tried to demo...

This game is so atmospheric, scary, funny, cute, grotesque and in a very strange way heartwarming that I can't think of any other game that comes as close to capturing all of these aspects in one package so well. It's a bit on the short side but once I finished, I couldn't wait to start it all over again.

This painting was nagging at me as soon as I started playing the game and I knew I wouldn't be able to paint anything else this weekend until I got this out of the way.

Really Quick Light and Color Study

I try to squeeze in some practice pieces whenever I can and I had a little time yesterday to get this one out. I spent some time in the park over the weekend and tried to take in all the different ways that light was interacting with the trees, grass and bushes - there was so much bounce light and ambiance that I really wanted to capture.

Untitled Sci-Fi / Space Fantasy Tease

I've recently been approached to do some work for a couple of films that are currently being developed for the big screen. I've been given permission to post some of the work from one of them up until the movie goes into production - at which point, I will have to remove them from my blog.

The concepts are pretty self-explanatory and I won't go into any details at all as to what it's all about, so please don't ask. ;)
