Here's a quick sketch from the book I'm working on, showing a 90-meter supply ship with that cool x-bow shape all the new OSVs (Offshore Supply Vessels) are sporting. This is the opening scene, afternoon sun highlighting the waves, just before everything falls apart. Speed painting in Art Rage Studio Pro. I'm contemplating storyboarding the whole thing out, create the graphic version of the same story as I'm writing the prose version.
A few samples of some of the stuff I drew in the Art Rage app on the iPad while taking in some of the panels at Readercon over the weekend. I'm working--as much as I can--on redrawing all of chapter 2 of Saltwater Witch (http://www.saltwaterwitch.com/switch).
Here are the beginnings of three of the replacement panels.
This week's Illustration Friday topic is "shadows". I painted this one of a pensive Kassandra from my book Seaborn for the background of my web site SaltwaterWitch.com, but it makes a great background for any desktop. I've cropped it and reduced it to a variety of standard resolutions for a variety of devices.
Pick yours, download it, and set it as your wallerpaper!

Happy New Year! I stole my last panel from Saltwater Witch for this one, but it works. Click for the full view.
So, here's the full work and some detail crops. Click them for the full view.
