Recent Drawings and Art


Donato Giancola

A handful of recent drawings to share here. My words of advice for the month: 'stay diversified' that way you don't have to blink when you tell certain clients to take a hike when you are done with them. Keep making art, keep sharing. That is how we move forward with creation.     [caption id="attachment_79353" align="aligncenter" width="1261"] Mars Violet - swordswoman - 'I am Done with You', 14" x 11", Watercolor Pencil and Chalk…

Restoration Angel Painting Process


Winona Nelson

January 13, 2025 - Here's the full image of my Magic card illustration "Restoration Angel" for Innistrad Remastered, art directed by Jameela Wahlgren. It's 11 x 14 inches and done completely in acrylic, on a cradled Blick gessoboard (which I love for the smooth surface, compared to Ampersand's pebbly gessoboard). I took phone photos of this piece as I went, and I've combined them here to create a time lapse of the process. It was done mostly in a restricted palette of Titanium White, Transparent Red Iron Oxide, Burnt Umber, and Indanthrene Blue, plus two convenience mixtures - Old Holland Violet Gray, and Warm Gray. Enjoy! [video width="794" height="1080" mp4="https://www.muddycolors.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Restoration-Angel-by-Winona-Nelson-process-1.mp4"][/video]
