Dalton Arts Guild Membership Show Ends June 30th!

So if anyone was planning on going but wasn't sure how much time they had...go soon, you got a week.  Unfortunately I will not be able to check the show out myself, but I've heard that it was especially good this year.  Many great Berkshire artists involved.  It's important to support local arts, and the Berkshires are trying especially hard to keep culture growing.

Sound the Alarm!

This is a piece I painted for Fantasy Flight Games from about a year ago.  It was painted for their "Escape from Mt. Gram" deck for their Lord of the Rings LCG.  The description was just to depict a goblin ringing a bell of sorts made from the armor of past victims.  I hadn't really done any evil creatures in a very long time, so I wanted to really show that I can handle the darker side of Lord of the Rings.  Also, I had recently dove head first into Death/Black Metal music and I was really jonesin' for a good demonic painting to paint.


I had a great time working on the sketch, and the Art Director liked how it looked, so it was approved for the painting stage without any changes.  As you can see, I kinda get a general composition worked out, but I do a good amount of improvising during the painting stage.  Also, I don't do color comps too often.  Like, never...since college.  Of course I would, if the job called for it, but the colors are pretty much worked out …

Smilodon and Elasmotherium

I have just finished another two paintings in my ongoing Prehistoric Creatures series.  The most recent four in the series have all been mammals that lived millions of years after the dinosaurs went extinct.  I plan to do seven of these mammals and then go back to dinosaurs, maybe group them into Prehistoric Creatures Series 1, Series 2, etc.  They are all for sale, but they have been snatched up quick, so if anyone as inquiries on pricing, please email me at owweberillustration@gmail.com.
I have been doing pencil portraits of many prehistoric animals on my instagram account, and these two have gotten the most likes, which is a great way of knowing which creature to paint next for this series.  Smilodon is very well know.  Along with the Woolly Mammoth, it's one of the most well known extinct creatures from the Early Pleistocene era.  It was only a matter of time before I was going to paint this guy.  I wanted to show it in a way that was not often depicted.  We've all seen im…

Prehistoric Creatures

For the past few months, I have been painting a bunch of small paintings of prehistoric creatures.  I have always had a few small, more affordable paintings to sell at the conventions I attend, and this is my newest series.  I feel like most people are not able to buy art at the prices artist ask, especially the big pieces, and they are forced to buy prints.  Prints are great, I have quite a few myself, but they are nothing like the real thing.  So I always make a more affordable series of paintings.  Here are the Prehistoric Creatures I have painted so far:









These are all in order of when I created them.  I just finished the Woolly Mammoth yesterday.  I am currently working on another one, that will be unveiled in a couple days, but if there are any commission requests or interest in any of these that are still available, please contact me at owweberillustration@gmail.com.
