Fallen Angel

I created this picture of a fallen angel. After doing something she thought was right she ended up being cast out and now her heart is freezing over. Her sadness engulfing her. I enjoyed creating this image it really helped me practice my portraiture techniques which I don't often get the chance to do. I think I could have emphasised the narrative a bit more and made the composition more compelling, with everything directing you towards the eyes.

Desert

This is a futuristic desert concept art piece I created. I couldn't get the lighting right and I was really frustrated in the end so I pronounced it done and moved on. I've never painted a desert before and I underestimated how hard it would be to get the harsh lighting right, especially while trying to convey an idea of it being on another planet. I came up with the idea of a family searching for somewhere to rest across the harsh desert but instead they find a factory esq building and have no choice but to go there to seek refuge.

Fishes!

I wanted to practice my repetition so I came up with this composition. I'm really happy with the results although it didn't look like it was going to come together until the very end when I added the lens blurs. I think next time I need to consider the composition a bit more as I feel it lacks rhythm although it has direction, and I wish the monster fish was scarier with a bigger mouth and more teeth.
