Magic the Gathering – Ghostly Possession

A new card for Magic the Gathering titled Ghostly possession.  Probably one of the creepier paintings I have done.  Very fun to do.

Thank you Caravaggio

I don’t always have the time to do the kind of art study that I would like.  So sometimes I have to incorporate that study into my work.  Caravaggio is one of my favorite artists, so for this painting of The Fell Court I decided to base my composition on Caravaggio’s painting of Supper at Emmaus.

Why you ask?  I wanted to spend some real time looking at what makes this composition work.  The powerful lights and darks along with the limited palette.  The masterful foreshortening of the character on the right and look at how the character on the left looks like he is just about to move, to breath and speak.  Wonderful.  I have only done this a few times over the years, but I always find it to be a very useful experience.

So thank you Caravaggio for helping lift at least this image for Dungeons and Dragons a little higher.

Magic the Gathering – Angel of Flight Alabaster

I have really been looking forward to releasing this painting. Another piece from last year that I have been waiting for the Innistrad release. This image is a little different than the one printed, it doesn’t have the spirits in the background. I liked this version better, I felt it kept the focus more on the character.

This image is also available in my new store, as a limited edition print!
