Another new one for Magic. I'm really glad to finally be able show this one. It's rare, for me at least, that a piece comes out really close to how I originally saw it in my mind, usually things change course for one reason or another, but this one's really dang close. 12 x 16 in. oil on masonite.

thats really awesome, you made it look really massive and heavy but at the same time light and floating, cool
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I really look forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteGreat handling of the tones to get that atmospheric perspective. Gives it a really epic feel. Well done man!
ReplyDeleteIt feels like I've been waiting forever to see this one! I saw a teeny-tiny thumbnail of it in the packaging around the time of GenCon and couldn't wait for the full thing.
ReplyDeleteI must say, it was worth the wait.
The majestic feel of this piece is simpy incredible. I think this may be one of the cards I'll get just so I can own the art. Well done as usual!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful man. I love how high key it is. Awesome as usual. You must have a stack of magic cards now.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys!
ReplyDeleteTyler - Yeah man, including stuff that's not out yet I'm up to 54 cards.
As Matt said the atmospheric perspective is great and really adds to the massive feeling of the sphinx. Very well done. I do like this piece a lot as well as your Enigma Sphinx painting.
