Description I had to do a painting 'influenced by' someone for media exploration tomorrow. I was going to try and paint this all super-tightly rendered, but my format was pretty diminutive. (12"x12") I wish I worked bigger.

Anyway, this was influenced by James Jean's work, but obviously took off on its own while I worked on it and is now...yeah I dunno.

I sort of like? I'm not sure how I feel about it - I like some parts but it was more of an experimental painting I guess hahaha

Acrylic + gouache (red, white and black) + white conte + charcoal on Canvas

Demonic moose, that's kinda scary... moose (Meese?) are scary enough on their own. O_O Without being enraged... >.>

I love this... painting is hard, you got my respect.

It's a well balanced composition, and I really enjoy dark images, I don't have nightmares so this is the closest thing.

Awesome. Love the concept and the dark feel the painting radiates. The ravens above the horse was a nice touch.

Woah, are the mooses' antlers morphing into ravens/crows towards the tips? Nice work! Very strange, but I really like it.

Is it sad that I thought that was a Warforged on the left?

...and that I'd totally play a Warforged druid who was pretty much just a gardener?

That's it. I refuse to ever go to Alberta. I don't enjoy my brain being ingested

I like how it is named after my province (Alberta) and it even has what looks like a wild rose (Alberta's provincial flower).

(Sorry, I'm a geek)
