So this week I’m posting a couple of quick doodles/mock ups I did in Corel Painter for those paintings. The first one below is the mock up for the painting I’m currently finishing, although it’s changed quite a lot in terms of composition. The second one is the painting I’ll be starting later this week and you’ll notice that all I’ve done is mock up a very small section and work on some colour combinations.

Finally, the Moo Minicards arrived last week so I’ve included a photo above of those in all their glory. As always, click on the thumbnails to see the bigger pictures.

They’re all based on previous work and ideas and I re-painted them in Corel Painter. It was fun exercise and I’m looking forward to see how they turn out when they arrive (Royal Mail strikes will no doubt delay these so they don’t get here in time!)

I’ve also sketched designs for two 20″ x 20″ canvases in Corel Painter and followed that up by putting the sketches onto the canvases and sealing them ready for painting this week. I’m going to try and work on both at the same time, as I don’t have a massive amount of time left before they need to be ready. Fingers crossed on that
