daily spit paint

I did sporadic work for the Daily Spitpaint group this week. I did a few in my traditional sketchbook, but I was only able to do one or two digitally. In terms of art output, it was low this week. I was able to do a three hour speed paint for Sketchzone though; It’s a […]

I’ve been somewhat of a busy bee this week; First up, I’ve made some progress on my long grind paintings. “Ang Dalaga and the Royal Baby’s” background sketch is finished. I can almost call the line art finished, but I still have to do the Maria Clara gown for the girl. As for “The Guardian,” […]

EDIT 12.4.2019: I thought Alex Honnold free soloed El Capitan this year. It turns out I was late to the party by two years. According to wikipedia; On June 3, 2017, [Alex Honnold] made the first free solo ascent of El Capitan, completing the 2,900-foot Freerider route in 3 hours and 56 minutes. I just got […]
