A Couple of Paintings

One of the perks I recently offered in the new album crowdfunding campaign had a special reward, a digital painting. Two generous fans picked that perk, and I delivered.

Here are the two paintings for Dik Diepeveen and Gaurav Dubei. Thank you both.

Craig Blundell’s Portrait

Yesterday, I finished painting the portrait of drummer Craig Blundell who is working with me on the new album “Paradigms”. Here’s the end result with a touch of creepiness and a bit of fantasy. Thank you Michael Giordano for the inspiration 🙂

I also started working on the new album cover and artwork; you can watch the progress on my Twitch channel. I’m painting the cover myself and streaming the progress along the way. I’ll start streaming later today, so make sure you follow me on Twitch to get notified when I go live twitch.tv/metroprog

My Other Artistic Side

Hey folks. I want to show you my other artistic side. I do digital paintings every once in a while, whenever I need a break from music. Yesterday, I finished this portrait painting of the lovely singer Anneke Van Giersbergen with whom I aspire to work one day.

I will broadcast the painting process live so everyone can watch it.
