Hi guys, this is a new piece I did to submit in Exposé.

I don't like so much to suggest the story behind my paintings, I prefer that every reader can read his own story just viewing the image

Started and finished in a couple of weeks in photoshop, no ref.

Every crits and comments are welcome.
Thanks for stopping by]]> Tue, 12 Feb 2008 14:15:52 +0000 http://notpill.cgsociety.org/gallery/589138

This is another one of the 'self-challenges' that I used to do to improve my poor skills.
My target here was to paint anatomy from memory but involving possibly some aspect that I never painted before.
So I've started this hunting at down scene with naked massive torso...from back....and black!
(Dudes, render that skin it was a pain, but really instructive and amusing)

Finished in about two days and obviously without references at all, so I bet you'll find some 'spare' muscle here and there LOL

Crits are always welcome (and please, forgive my english)]]> Mon, 28 Jan 2008 08:32:29 +0000 http://notpill.cgsociety.org/gallery/586512

Hi cgtalkers,
this is a piece I did for my little son that asked me "a big, white robot" . So he art directed all the painting until the end, with tips and request like "tanks, daddy, more tanks" and "more gundamish shape daddy pleeese" and so on...It was really fun.
Thanks for watching.

cheers

Hi, people!
Sometimes I try to challenge myself with tasks and rules like "no zooming" or "one only brush" and things like that. It help me to avoid my 'comfort zone' and push to paint different things in different styles.
This time I tried a "no layers" rule, so, no layers, no fx, no strange blending modes. Just canvas and brushes. No reference used.
Painted in Painter X Demo in one day (wow! sounds like "30 trial days 30pics" ).
Hope you like.
Cheers.]]> Mon, 12 Mar 2007 07:02:56 +0000 http://notpill.cgsociety.org/gallery/470309

I started this one to spend some times testing Photoshop CS3 Beta but after few minutes of doodlin' I finished to stuck with one only default brush and one layer.

Hi Cgtalkers!
this is my new work. only Photoshop, no ref.
and no description about the story this time. Just a song by Radiohead.

Sing us a song.
A song to keep us warm
There's such a chill
Such a CHILL.

You can laugh
A spineless laugh.
We hope your rules and wisdom choke you
Now we are one
In ever lasting peace

We hope that you choke.. that you choke

Hi guys,
here's a recent experimental painting based on a Daryl Mandryk's tecnique that i learned in recent magazine workshop.
Carving and sculpting shapes from a lot of big fat random brrushstrokes. All the process start in a really random mode but it's a great fun.]]> Sun, 03 Sep 2006 17:22:43 +0000 http://notpill.cgsociety.org/gallery/403459
