Pink Pig Portrait

Pink Pig Portrait

This portrait of a pink pig was painted in September 2014 in oils on an acrylic base, on a 12” x 10” board. The pig was one of a number to be found at Hillier gardens, Romsey in Hampshire and was in a cordoned off area of the woodland. They were there to help clear old vegetation.

This is a small 12" x 10" portrait of a pig done in oil paint. The photograph shows three stages of the painting. The fist still is the drawing, done in brown acrylic paint on a red groud, though it is made B/W here for clarity. The second still shows a basic set of acrylic colours added, mainly of darker tones. The last still shows the finished painting done in oils over the acrylic.
The pig itself was one of a small group clearing out some woodland of weeds at Hillier Gardens, Hampshire during the summer.

Pig painting work in progress stages

This photo shows an oil painting of a pig in stages. The first stage shows a drawing created with acrylic paint on a red ground (B/W here for clarity).The second stage is where a basic acrylic colour base is applied. Some times I have used oil paint at this stage and sometimes I skip this stage completely. The Final stage is the actual painting done in oil paint, applied quite thickly.

Cartoon Animal Pirate Ship

Cartoon Animal Pirate Ship

This digital painting illustrates a Pirate galleon ship, manned by a crew of cartoon animals, out on the ocean.

The Captain is a proud Lion with an eye patch, peg leg and fetching outfit, brandishing a sword. Other members of the crew consist of a Rhinoceros eating an apple, an elephant with a hook, a Zebra mopping the decks, a giraffe and a collection of cheeky monkeys up to no good playing around the ships rigging. Finally, in the crows nest is a pig on look out duties. The Galleon has its cannons at the ready and all the sails in use for a quick get-away, the fluttering flag, with the skull and cross bones motif, indicating the crews intentions.

The picture was done to A3 size and painted in Photoshop, during summer 2013.

This vector based illustration shows a fat, little pig celebrating his birthday. He has been presented a chocolate cake with a candle stuck in the chocolate icing on top, and can't wait to eat it in one mouthful. The artwork was created at A3 size during 2013. A basic drawing was first produced in Photoshop with flat colours painted in. This was then traced in a vector programme with colour samples taken from the rough, pixel image.
