Banshee Fantasy Art

So of course I have some new fantasy art for all my lovelies.  Currently, making videos of most of my recent illustrations has been quite irritating, and I may stop doing that for a while due to the restraints it puts on my need to move about the room.  As for the newer illustrations, I've been receiving some great feedback and response back in the real world, and plan to continue in this direction and vein of work.

OK, now for the art. Obviously, as the title suggests, this fantasy doodle is of a banshee.  For those of you who don't know, a banshee is the ghost or spirit of a woman who basically screams at you to warn you of your death.  Sounds pleasant enough, right?  It's not bad enough that you're going to die soon, but just in case you really aren't, I'm sure having a ghost sneak up on you and scream will surely do the trick.

This piece was painted with a mixture of acrylic and watercolor paint, and on top of that there is a whole-lotta pen and ink work.

Sci Fi Watercolor - Time Lapse Video

For this painting, I used watercolor, acrylic and charcoal, as well as ink for the outline (really just sharpie). I uploaded this video to youtube, and when I initially tried to share it to my blog my computer, apparently overloaded, flung itself into a state of catatonia.  Well, that's what it wanted me to think, as I clicked and clicked. Oh, but no, it wasn't just doing nuthin'...nuh uh...it was posting 4 identical posts on my blog. >< I didn't know until this morning...asldjflkdjf

Anyway, it's all good.  This piece didn't take me too long, I was really just experimenting with this style, and made it into a time lapse video / speed painting for all to see:) Enjoy
