“Misty Woodland”

Misty Woodland by 26PM

“It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men’s hearts, as for that subtle something that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.” –Robert Louis Stevenson

This piece, although my newest, is one of my all-time favorites. I love the beauty and the stillness of the woodland. If you notice, the small deer is so connected with his surroundings that he is literally a part of the forest environment.  Also, all the curves you see in this image were hand-drawn in ink on several separate pages — photo after the jump!

10 Amazing Original Stencil Art & Acrylic Paintings on Canvas by 26:PM

'Monarch Beetle' Stencil Art on Canvas by 26PM

Much of my work is digital, but there’s just nothing like picking up a paintbrush — or a can of spraypaint — and spreading color across a physical canvas. In creating these stencil art pieces you see below, I’ve spent hours with an x-acto knife, carving intricate detail into oilboard, before adhering the stencil to canvas and bringing it to life.

“In moving-slow he has no Peer.
You ask him something in his Ear,
He thinks about it for a Year;

And, then, before he says a Word
There, upside down (unlike a Bird),
He will assume that you have Heard-

Moleskines…All Those Poor Moles!

My wife just taught me what a Moleskine is. I guess being an artist, I was supposed to already know.  They are apparently the best notebook ever.  I’m excited because I just got my first-ever Moleskine, as a part of the Sketchbook Project. Although, I am kind of surprised PETA isn’t all over this, all those poor moles.
