He ain't giant, and he ain't jolly, he's just simply green.

DEATH TO THE BLUE PARTY


i kind of burnt my self out o digital painting so i did some graphic art stuff :)
and school its back in session so i gotta do a bunch for retarded BS for my major that just blows and is way below my level but hey :) im still arting itup :) graphic art also takes a lot less time :)

and the story behind this one is well its a hyothetical political party poster that has graffiti on it :) except i decided to use my photo for the political party member persona :) it reminds me of when i was in europe and the plastered hundreds of the same posters for various things all over the brick walls and buildings :)

quick sketches

i have done some quick sketches done in 15-20mins and tried to give a little fantasy look.please feel free to give your opinion.

Oil #3


Okay, so it's my third ever traditional painting and I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. I was less messy this time because thankfully my art teacher lended me some of her Mineral Spirits.

Sit tight, because I'm going to keep these comin'

Oil Painting


As of late, I've been doing ALOT of traditional work (mainly figure drawing and some painting) and haven't really been able to get into digital because of school, but hopefully now I'll be able to post some digital AND traditional works periodically (but I'm going to have to try and find a scanner that doesn't suck so much ass like mine does). This one is a 5 by 5 inch Oil Painting that took two hours, so anybody who nows more about traditional techniques PLEASE TELL ME.

Have a Good One,
Nick Fechter

Gesture study


I've been following a thread started by a student at Watts in Calif. This weeks assignment was all about capturing gestures. This was a quick study I did using a carbon pencil (less messy than charcoal)

drawing


Wolverine and Mystique

As you can see I'm continuing to work on my anatomy. Both male and Female. I did notice though towards the end of this drawing that Wolverine was awfully big and Mystique was kind of petite. I will work on that in the next drawing. But Mystique is a shape shifter so she might have made herself smaller just to get ol'Logan a self-esteem boost!

red sonja Vs. The barbarian!

The mighty Red Sonja has become a pawn of the evil Succubus! Does the defeated Barbarian stand a chance against a bewitched she devil with a sword!

I got a pretty harsh review at the Chicago Comic Con this year. So I went back and started restudying all my anatomy/gesture drawing books from college. I relearned a bunch of stuff that I guess I had forgotten. However I'm starting to see big improvements already in my art. I hope it shows!


Tribute for MJ

Just a Quick Doodle


I actually drew this guy a while back in my sketchbook, and today I decided to paint him. Sorry that I haven't been too involved in the blog lately, school recently began for me and finding time to start on any of my new ideas for paintings has been difficult. I managed to squeez in an hour today though, and this year I plan on resurrecting my comic strip for my school newspaper and I plan on posting them on here, so look out for those :)
