Captain Marvel and Thanos

captain-marvel thanos

Starting to do a few of these smaller 5″x7″ish sized ink and watercolor paintings. I thought it could be fun to do some different type of characters from all different kinds of media. Today’s paintings are of two Marvel Comics characters, Captain Marvel and his arch foe, Thanos.

Captain Marvel is character that died in the early 1980s, is one of my favorite characters. And is also one of the few heroes that has not been brought back from the dead. He died from cancer and not by the hands of a villain, in The Death of Captain Marvel graphic novel.

Thanos is one of the most powerful villains in the Marvel universe and in the 90’s was causing many a problem for the characters in Marvel. And, that is what is ramping up in the next 2 Avengers movies.

Both of these paintings are for sale, $30 each or both for $50.

Last month during the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge, I finished this painting which I had started earlier in the year. It’s the first painting in a series of Nightmare Before Christmas paintings I’m planning on doing. All of them will be in this same size and format, oil on canvas.

Inktober-Day 10

Today’s drawing for Inktober is of the character, Influence from the Dick Tracy movie. There are a lot of great characters from that film that I plan on drawing this month. I think part of the appeal of drawing these characters is the original Dick Tracy comic strip. I really enjoy the art style and the inking of those original strips.

30 Paintings in 30 Days-Day 18

Now it’s time to take a look at what is happening on the planet Hoth, during The Empire Strikes Back. I think my favorite part of this is the guy quickly walking by, not trying to ease drop on Han and Leia.

30 Paintings in 30 Days…Again…Day 1

Dick Tracy small

Well, here we go again. I believe this is the third time I have taken on the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge at https://www.saetastudio.com/30-in-30-blog. This time might be harder than the others because I’m coming into it without a plan. I just recently decided to join in and I have no idea what I’m going to paint. Usually I like to have a few pieces ready before hand to use as a cushion, but that’s not really the case this month. One thing I am planning to do is finish some paintings that I have started but not finished. Some of these will include some larger paintings. Another idea I have to do some studies of work from artists I admire. So, this month might be quite the hodge podge of pieces. I guess we will just roll with it.

Day 1’s painting is a 5″x6″ painting of Dick Tracy as portrayed by Warren Beatty from the 1990 film, Dick Tracy. Its is a mix of different painting media; acrylic, gouache and oil paints. After I did the drawing on the illustration board, I did a wash of yellow acrylic paint over the whole piece. Over that, I used black gouache for the under painting and the rest is all oil paints.

In my mind I was thinking I wanted to go for a Norman Rockwell feel to the painting, which I don’t feel came out in the piece. I have been watching one of Quang Ho’s instructional dvds and the brush strokes, to me, feel more like his than Rockwell’s. That said, I did really enjoy the process of painting this piece.

Pirates of the Caribbean’s Bridge Pirate

Bridge Pirate

This questionable looking gentleman is one of pirates who are bidding on a bride on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, He is perched a top a bridge that you pass under as you exit the auction scene. He is watching it all happen along with his parrot friend. This was an ink drawing that I did and then I dropped it into Photoshop and colored it.
