[commission finished]
Finished one of my long running commissions. This one took me a while for several reasons. School, work, equipment falling apart and my own lack of confidence pushed this thing to take me forever to finish. However, I’m fairly happy with how this one turned out. As tedious as those bricks were, I actually had fun working on them. I just threw on some music, (a newly purchased Justice album hit the spot) and just went at it. Learned quite a bit from this one too, I had never done scales before, now I know I can. And I never really attempted to paint brick like that either. And I really went to town experimenting with some of the painting and color techniques I’ve picked up from school over the past few years. A friend of mine said it’s the best piece I’ve done yet, he’s probably right. I poured a lot of my heart and soul into this piece, even though it’s a commission, and it shows off some of the new things I can do skill wise now too. It’s also one of the largest. Below are a few detail shots to show off some of the brush work I put into it.
