Hidden Verdania

This is a leftover from an older March 2012 Paint batch. If you look back at a studio shots post from a month ago or more you'll see this piece unfinished, but prominent in one of the shots.

My Latest in the Scape Series!

I'm still loving to do these! 

This one has a slightly limited pallet.

The Pink Space

(c)2012 Ralf Schulze
I'm still exploring this format of 8.5 x 11 acid-free colored paper with acrylic paint, ink and colored pencil.

I'm doing more detail with the colored pencil.

I like how this one feels. I worked on it in the vertical format, but others said they liked it better this way.  Hence the angled signature.




this is the paint only, before embellishment!

It is 8 1/2 x 11

I spent a lot of time with the color pencil.












This is the paint only.














This is a negative image!

Dargonia

 Newest on very dark gray paper.  I would have said Black, but the Black Prismacolor pencil showed up on it, so it must be dark gray.

I had a ton-o-fun with this one and went a little crazy with the color pencil detail.

 I am a little behind the eightball with posting to the artblog here.

This is the usual media and size (see other works)

Please go see this at my FINEARTAMERICA gallery for some wicked cool close-ups!

 Been playing with this one for a while.  It finally gelled last night!

I also used regular pencil in this one.

I really like the results.

See the "labels" for media.

This is only ink and color pencil on orange/yellow ochre acid-free cardstock paper and is smaller than most:  5 x 7.

Did it all today!

Thanks for looking!

 This on feels very sedate. So I tried to work the angles to give it a little umpff. 

Same 8.5 x 11 (can easily be framed in a 8 x 10 mat.

Acrylic and color pencil and ink on colored paper.
