Great update Nick!! As usual inspiration for the day! :) I can't stress enough when i find myself doing to much to paint a landscape, i do a speed painting over 2-3 hours witch isn't a speed painting any longer. rather i do thumbnail sketches to find the perfect composition and color palette to find the right colors and mood witch all adds up to couple days of work on one or two pieces...Do you have any tips perhaps what i could change or switch up to get more quicker? Would appreciate it allot :) Anyways keep it up!

and word, i feel you on the stressfulness of that kind, i also have rather few days a week when i can't find any ideas on what i'm gonna paint or draw, very frustrating, i try get out the environment and do some other things, play some ball, in the park work out or read, always a great thing to stretch out your imagination horizon..

just stop by to visit your blog. really good work man. i like your work a lot :D

hey domas, you know, i think each of these took me around 2-3 hours (even the small thumbnails) maybe even longer. i'm not too fast either. teachers always tell me to spend time on each painting and speed will follow. i guess it's a mileage kind of thing.

thank you for taking a look! i really appreciate it.

Epic work. I love the dragon ones!

I think your absolutely right Nick, speed fallows up to millage. Right now i'm basically focusing also towards painting and understanding what i do when i get to that LEVEL. Right now it's basically getting there, putting in hours of work, work and work and i'm sure we will get the speed we need :) No problem Nick, always welcome, it's that daily inspiration you know ;) You can always check my stuff out when ever you have a minute

keep dropping them pieces.

Bless
