"Creation"
One piece of my cosmic tryptich. A fantadtical cosmic being grips the accretion disc of a black hole and pours the raw materials of the universe out to create a quasar galaxy and a sea of stars.

Initially created during the Dogma 48 USA challenge hosted by @verkosvault. This challenge was to create a new work start to finish in 48 hours. Thank you to @kryptykminis for organizing the event.

Winner of best of category at @gen_con 2025 and 2nd place category winner at Verkos Vault Masters championship at #LVO

We had blast painting this beautiful figure from @mindwork.studio for the second time based off another piece of artwork from the legend Frazetta. Thank you again to @frazettagirls for sponsoring my class at LVO through a generous donation of books depicting the artwork large and in accurate color.

I wanted to share this work in progress for this Roman centurian I am painting for a collector. In particular the cloak is ready for a unifying glaze. The wool texture was painted using the series D brushes from @artisopusltd which made it quite enjoyable.

A close up of this bust I painted from @cultofpaint. I really liked devising a clever way of painting the faceted gemstone and creating the appearance of transmitted passing through it. I did a tutorial on this for @miniaturemonthly for those who are interested.

In honor of the new Dune movie I thought I'd share

In honor of the new Dune movie I thought I'd share this bust I painted a couple years back titled "The Fremen of Dune". I absolutely loved the movie and thought it captured the look, characters, and themes of the book perfectly.
This piece is was originally a bust of Subzero from Mortal Kombat. Using just your imagination and painting you can remained the sculptures you are given. Make them your own and express your ideas!
