Terracotta Winged Guardian for Creatuanaryā
ā I admit I had no idea where to start with this prompt. A winged creature seemed a bit at odds with heavy clay. I thought of sort of ancient sculptures that featured winged lions and landed on this idea. I'm really happy with how it came out (and the little kid likes their friend too! š)ā
Six-Legged Golem for Creatuanary
Gorgon for Creatuanary šā
To be honest I REALLY struggled with this one... I think in the end I am happy with how it turned out, but it took a long time to get there. ā
Pyroclastic Golem for Creatuanary. I got WAY too carried away with lava rendering, but I had a lot of fun checking out different lava references and experimenting with this one!ā
My infernal hound brings me coffee, always at the perfect temperature! āļøš„ā
The prompt definitely made me think more skulls and fire but, I wanted to try a more lighthearted idea.ā
A Flame Serpent protecting her brood. Day number 5 of Creatuanary (it was actually day 4 but I can't read so here we are)ā
Don't let his small size fool you. He has a big appetite! Voracious little bugger.ā
ā A little fire sprite for Creatuanary. I was trying to think of what animals could be associated with fire, and thought of salamanders! I just love his lil face šā¤ļø I imagine if he ever gets to sate his appetite, he could grow quite large and fearsome!ā
A fire djinn for #Creatuanary! The prompt was "Ifrit". After some research I learned a lot more about djinn and tried a new, less monstrous, take on them. šā
ā Do you have any favorite interpretations of djinn? Seems like they can have a lot of different takes! I'm curious to see what everyone comes up with šā
Couldn't resist the prompt for this one - š„Pyroceratops!š„ My imagination ran wild and I had a ton of fun with it š I absolutely love dinosaurs, so doing a fiery take on one was a treat!ā
I saw the Creatuanary challenge for this year and it's right up my alley! Hoping to keep the inspiration rolling and fire burning for January. First up is a Fire Phoenix! š„ā
Well it's that time of year again. I actually missedĀ #artvsartistĀ last year because I was in the middle of job interviews. This year I have basically no new art because I got a job as an Associate Environment Artist! So I figured I would catch up on sharing my work from 2022.
2022 and 2023 have been huge years for me.
First I wrapped up my character design class with Devon Cady-Lee. This was a great experience and I highly recommend him as a teacher! I feel like I learned a lot in both design thinking and execution.
Then I got my first professional art gig withĀ Ambertail GamesĀ doing item and prop concept art. I am so grateful for this wonderful opportunity. The team was great wo work with and the art direction was so fun. I can't wait to see Amber Isle come to life and play it!
I decided to use the extra money from the Ambertail gig to take some more art classes and explore different art fields, since I had been waffling about what career to pursue. I ended up taking a the Creating Stylized Game Assets CGMA class by Ashleigh Warner. I had been dabbling in 3D game art for quite some time and wanted to take a real stab at learning it properly.
This ended up being a great decision because I totally fell in love with the process of 3D environment art. I felt like the work was a good combination of my artistic and technical thinking skills. I really enjoy the planning aspect of it, and finding creative solutions to optimize or achieve certain results.
Fast forward to today, and I have been employed as an environment artist on World of Warcraft with Blizzard Boston for almost a year! š„³š It is still kind of unbelievable looking back and seeing how much I have achieved these past 2 years. I have wanted to be a professional artist my whole life and that dream has come true! Not only that, but I get to work on an IP that I love and with an awesome team at a stable company. I mean WHAT?! I am so grateful to be given these opportunities, and so glad I never gave up on this dream.
Thank you for reading my essay on the past 2 years of my life. I hope I can get back to more personal art in 2024!
Working on a new illustration! For the first time in forever.
Sliding in on the last day of #Mermay! I really love this idea and hope I can find some time to explore it some more. Iām a sucker for anything koi related!
Another #Mermay sketch! Getting inspired exploring black hairstyles.
Although I didn't have enough time to do the full challenge I still managed to get some #Mermay sketches in at the beach. What better place to draw mermaids? š§āāļø Drawing flowy hair has got to be my favorite thing about mermaids. š
Time to revive the tumbles.Ā
Hi, Iām Mowen and I love colorful, stylized fantasy art!
