Artist's Comments

I'm on my week long break right now - my first break since Christmas. Only 31 days and counting until I'm done with grad school! Anyhow, I should have been doing homework, but I did this instead. It's been waaaaay too long since I had time to just play with art that wasn't related to school. I'd gotten an idea in my head after watching the the recent Lost episode "Dead Is Dead" and had scribbled out some thumbnail sketches in my notebook during class in the evening. This week off from school seemed like the perfect opportunity to do some art for fun, and I had some digital painting techniques I wanted to mess around with, so Ben got to be my test subject.

This originally started out as a dark brown and white colored pencil drawing on gray Canson paper and gradually morphed into this as I started painting it in Photoshop. The textures used in this digital painting are a combination of ones I made on my own (by painting and scanning ink washes on watercolor paper) and textures from CG Textures. The final picture measures 9" x 12".

You can see more of my Lost art right here.

EDIT: WHOA, a DD!? I wasn't expecting that! :w00t: Thank you so much everyone! I'm a little swamped with school work right now, but I'll definitely be reading everyone's comments as soon as I get a chance. Thanks so much for all of your support! :hug: I really appreciate it.

Haha, and I need more free time! This is the first chance I've had to do some non-school related art in such a long time.

That was such an amazing scene. I don't even like Ben, but that was just...wow. And this is an awesome interpretation of it :heart:

wicked cool! I keep staring at it trying to see things in the smoke just like I did when the scene was on tv! :lol:
Your LOST art is soooo very cool...Ben is one naughty monkey, but after we saw him as a little boy I did kinda actually feel sorry for him....

Ok, so I'm like a year and a half behind on Lost so I didn't dare read your description, so I don't know exactly what this is (besides the obvious. . . it's Ben) but it's beautiful art.
