I see that I can learn some things from watching you.

A lot of interesting images on first glance. I'll be diving in to look around.

Oh, thank you very much! I appreciate your kind words. There's six years' worth of material here -- I'll be excited to see your comments!

Also -- I love your dragon paintings. You are just fantastic at painting light and shadow!

Tavush In reply to AlexandraBowmanArt [2019-03-07 04:33:55 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. I have quite a list of artists who's work I look at - from Robert T. McCall to Odd Nerdrum, and I can point to three artists who have greatly influenced how I approach light and shadow in painting. First is Joaquin Sorolla - he was a true master of painting light. Many Years ago, the local art museum was one of the venues for a traveling exhibition of his work. One of the most striking examples of light for me in that show was in looking at the painting "Another Marguerite." When I stood before that painting I felt like there was real light coming in through the windows and falling on the bench.

The second artist is Shigeo Koike who is known by many for his box art for plastic model kits from Hasegawa. Studying his art has given me a clearer understanding of reflected light and how reflected light can be different on an object in flight than on one at rest on the ground. (The higher the altitude, the greater the amount of surface below reflecting light onto the flying object.)

The third artist is the wildlife artist Bob Kuhn. He is the artist I am currently taking inspiration from for my experiments in painting. It is not just light that inspires me in his work. His color choices and his textures grab my attention whenever I look at his work.

Additionally, James Gurney's two books Imaginative Realism, and Color And Light are 'must-haves' for anyone wanting to do fantasy art in a realist style.

Hello how are you?

Do you take request or commissions?

What kind of art do you accept/ don't accept?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AlexandraBowmanArt In reply to Prince-Harmony [2017-05-18 11:16:44 +0000 UTC]

Hi, HarmonyStar-v2!

Yes, I do take commissions! I usually can't do requests. I would ask that you pay through PayPal on Etsy -- I will set up a listing, and then you can check out with your PayPal account.

I will draw almost anything, provided there's no mature content involved. I would prefer traditional over digital art -- the latter would probably cost more. If you would like me to actually send you the physical piece, I can do that -- you would just have to pay a few extra dollars for shipping.

If you would like to purchase a commission, just send me a brief description of the piece you would like me to draw, and I will send you a quote. :) (Smile)

Thank you so much for your interest!
