Hello all! I am very excited that the skin tutorial is finally going live. Hope you all find it useful. 
Thanks for being so patient.
As I mention, knowing your color theory and anatomy is vital to painting skin well. Someone has already asked for resources on color theory, so it seems logical to post this list in a journal so everyone see it:
Color theory tutorials on the web:
Phil Straub : Color Theory Simplified www.imaginefx.com/022877543322…
fredflickstone @ conceptart.org : Color Theory 1 & 2 www.conceptart.org/forums/show…
Henning Ludvigsen : Color Theory www.henningludvigsen.com/index…
Socar Myles : A Practical Guide to Color tutorials.epilogue.net/princip…
Eugene Arenhaus : The Color Gray tutorials.epilogue.net/princip…
Those are all great starter tutorials. For more in-depth theory, look around on amazon.com for books on the subject. I am sorry but I don't know any to recommend. And of course, if you can try to take a class on the subject!
If anyone has other good resources or recommendations, link me and I'll add to the list.
Cheers

I'm on the internet!
I disappeared art-wise for a few years due to health issues impacting my ability to work. I'm much better now, but internet platforms have changed pretty drastically while I was out of commission. Now that I'm active again I wanted to let people know where they can find me and keep up with my work since I only post finished things on this account.

Do not work for free
I received an email soliciting artwork for the second volume of"The Fantasy Illustration Library: Gods and Goddesses”.
The jist of it was: Pick your god or goddess! Make art for us! After we get all the art, we’ll try to do a Kickstarter to produce the book and if we make enough money, we might pay the artists! Don’t pay attention to the un-affordable nature of the book’s price point ($100) because we’ll totally pay you royalties!!
This brand of “proposal” is predatory, dishonest, and frankly incompetent. (And art budget for an art book?? Who’d ever even think of that!) People who organize b
Tumblr + Black Gate Interview
Hey hey! Two things:
Black Gate recently interviewed me, so if you're curious about my life, inspirations, etc etc go have a read:

Secondly, I have started a new personal Tumblr account where I'm posting influences, inspiration, and awesome artwork (plus cat pictures, sorry) as well as personal posts. If you like what I do, you'll probably enjoy it, so give me a follow:

I have a tumblr sketchblog as well that is strictly for my own work. (More or less what you see here at DA, plus work in progress shots and occasionally art talk when p
