Personal work: Paintings

Here are some personal pieces that I've made over the summer, both complete paintings and sketches. All are painted in Photoshop.

Centaur Hunter:

An experiment with centaur anatomy.

Blood Allergy:

"Herbert was thrilled to finally get to visit his girlfriend's parents, who were both well known as some of the strongest and oldest vampires in Europe. Unfortunately for him, he got to experience the full extent of his blood allergy, when the one, rare kind he was allergic to, happened to be served that very night. Oh, the shame..."

Dragon Portrait:

Around 50 minutes in Photoshop CS6.

Speedpaintings_01:

Around 1-1,5 hours on each sketch, Photoshop CS5.

Speedpainting_02:

Around 2 hours in Photoshop CS5. Inspired by Pacific Rim.

Speedpaintings_03:

Around 1,5-2 hours on each sketch, Photoshop CS5. Focus on storytelling, composition and colours.

Materials

Teacher: Ole Gulbrandsen
Week 4

This week we focused on observing and understanding different materials, and to do that, we painted still life images in Photoshop. Here's some of the things I made:

Design 2

Teacher: Lawrence Marvit
Week 2

Another intense week of design work is now over, and I'm very happy to see progress from last time. We got 3 different and challenging assignments, all to be rendered in black and white, and I enjoyed them all very much.

Weapon of Atlantis:
Here I made a dead shark that can shoot jellyfish.

Dead Pirates in Venice:
I wanted a dark and threatening atmosphere, so then I made the pirates lurk in the shadows.

Fairy City:
I designed a more wild-looking kind of fairies, and their homes.

Photoshop & After Effects

Photoshop/After Effects assignment, where the task was to make a panning background. It was a great way to get to know After Effects.

Teacher: Bo Mathorne.
Completed: September 21, 2012.
