Hey all 

Decided to have a practise at my speed painting this week while listening to two of my favourite songs from two amazing artists Listener and Tori Amos . each speed painting is supposed to be evoking a different scene and atmosphere Music next to art is my second biggest inspiration when it comes to my work.

each painting took an hour and a half in photoshop CS6.

Initial ideas and WIP of each painting below.

Train song by Listener 

Winter by Tori Amos

I am trying to apply and improve a lot more on realism the expressions I give each figure.

a future speed painting/ Illustration idea.

I tried to explore some action based composition trying to capture that moment of brutal impact.

to make the setting more interesting I imagined this been set in a swiss town. 

until next post LATERS :)

Today I was listening to one of my favoiute Listener songs called Train song. 

This song evokes a lot of powerful imagery For me its The clash between the homeless and the struggling.

The Sketch above is for a possible digital painting I may do in the future that juxtaposes elements of the song with my imaginative world. The homeless mans head is supposed to be in the shape of what I assume is a medical illustration of an ear on the front cover of the Listener album "Whisper Moon". 

The three characters in the background are based on animations from a documentary about abused homeless/ kids but I can not remember the name of it otherwise I would have linked to the cartoons. 

Until next post LATERS :)
