Memory Lane - Day 6

I know it's late but here's the sixth and final installment of my trip down memory lane. This first piece is one of the few digital paintings I did while in school, it was for a hypothetical fantasy story called 'The Black Cauldron'.

*at least I thought it as hypothetical, apparently The Black Cauldron was a Disney movie from the '80s. Thanks Seth.


This next one was an attempt at mixing fantasy and sci-fi elements, called 'Klank'.


Here we have a mock-cover for Beowulf...


...And I thought I'd end with this piece. A self portrait that illustrates pretty well how I was feeling by the end of my time in art school.

  6. Damn, Chris, these are great. I cant believe these are all your student work. Seems like you had quite a handle on things early on! Thanks for sharing, it's always cool to see older work like this.

  8. So before it was a movie, The Black Cauldron was a pretty good series of fantasy books. I really enjoyed them as a teen.
