Cute Gothic Horror Vampire Woman - WIP stages

This composite picture shows a number of stages in the creation of this digital painting, featuring a Gothic woman vampire with bat friend in the typical scene of a ruined church at night.
The first panel shows the initial drawing, each object within drawn on separate levels, often roughly at first, and then cleaned up on another separate level. In this case this drawing was created on a Samsung tablet running the 'Auto Sketchbook pro' app. After a suitable drawing had been created it was then exported from the tablet (as a layered PSD) and opened in photoshop on a PC to enlarge it to the correct proportions for the final illustration and saved. After this stage the drawing is now ready for painting, and is opened up in the desktop version of 'Auto Sketchbook pro'. From now on the artwork is painted using a number of brushes using the drawing as a reference. Again each element is painted on layers. Once the painting was complete some final regrading was done using Photoshop.
The final painting can be seen here.

Boat wreck at Bitterne Manor Park

Boat wreck at Bitterne Manor Park 

This wreck of an unknown boat was painted during May 2014, on a canvas board sized at 10” x 12” in acrylics. It is on the River Itchen that runs through Southampton and is here on the bank located at Bitterne Manor Park, on the outskirts of the City. St Denys can be seen on the opposite side of the River.
