Harmony Steel 2002-07-12 This is definately one of the freakiest and scariest monsters I've ever seen. He looks evil and hungry to boot. Really nice work!   dilosh GregowicH 2002-09-28 hmm, i think, it is even harder to draw terrifying creatures,and make them really scary, than drawing beautiful&perfect girls.. cool work!! and you have a great gallery!   (April Lee) Thanks! Well, I don't know about one thing being harder than another. There are artists who just LOVE doing monsters. They are really, really good at it, and just prefer doing monsters to pretty humans. And maybe they aren't so good at doing pretty humans! And visa versa. Everyone's passions and everyone's talents are different. Holger Göbber 2002-09-29 Favourite This is my favourite pic of your Epilogue gallery(I hope there are more somewhere else!) The tension in this is just fantastic I think.   (April Lee) Monsters I rarely paint monsters. Most companies hire me to create their handsome heroes and beautiful ladies. I don't mind at all, but it is a nice change when I get an assignment to do something ugly and scary! :) Kay Allen 2002-10-19 Oh great monster...I can't get over that hand...those nails are coming toward me...perspective and layout on this is awesome April.   (April Lee) This was another unusual painting for me. I think this is the only monster I've done! Both this one and the Drow with the owl were painted in acrylics. I mostly use airbrush now, since it's faster... And may switch over to digital (much cleaner!). Soni 2003-02-27 Hurrah, done in *acrylics*! You are an isnpiration, this beasty is horribly good and caught in a superb moment. Very simple elements, incredibly effective and wonderfully painted!   (April Lee) Acrylics aren't that hard to use--but digital is great for being able to undo stuff and work in layers, etc. I started painting before digital paint programs were widely used and available--or even accepted in print. Plus, I still like to have an original painting to show and to sell. But it's nice to know that I can scan the things and fix the image up digitally, when possible! Post a Comment
