Blooming "Epiphyllum"

Blooming "Epiphyllum"

Sorry guys, it is hard for me to pronounce the name of this beautiful flower. We got some long ago, different colors and shapes, and wanted to share a photo and a drawing of one of them. This drawing was done using a felt pen.

A Garden's Beauty

A Gardens Beauty

I tried Illustrator, but I think PS worked much better. I used the smudge tool, as I have done in some of my works...

A Day at the Dwarfs

A Day at the Dwarfs

The best way to surprise the 7 Dwarfs is to give them cake after a long day of working. So that's what Slowwhipe does! She's barely in the mine or Gula is already jumping into the cake to eat it all alone. Ira, also hungry, gets furious! Acedia doesn't care much and just continues sleeping. Luxuria ...

Hero of the Sky

Hero of the Sky

This is my concept of an ideal hero. Focus. Control. Conviction. Resolve. A true hero lacks none of these attributes. Material used: gouache on paper.

Confronting His Alter Ego

Confronting His Alter Ego

This is primarily photoshop with one outside source. I used smart sharpen on the mask image and worked to marry photos with illustration. Even the background is from the contest source. Combination of noise and texture filters with gaussian blurs created the textures.
