Digital Paintings

This is a hybrid pencil drawing/digital painting. It's an evolution of my recent dragon sketch work (see below) and an exploration of certain digital painting techniques.

Pencil Sketches

Lately I've been making quick sketches of dragons. No particular reason; they're fun to draw. Here are just a few of them.

In the house where my mother grew up hangs a painting of King David as an old man, which has always impressed me with its sense of mood and character.


Always eager to improve my own art, I decided to do a quick pencil sketch of the painting, trying to reproduce the same mood and character.
