Sunday, July 20, 2014. 12" x16" , oil , Photoshop. 169;Wizards of the Coast. Master of Predicaments (preliminary drawing). 85" x 11", pencil on paper. 169;Wizards of the Coast. I liked the slender doors with the vertical orb windows in the sketch. I was afraid, however, that they would get lost when the image is reduced to card size. Though its a creature card, the background doors had to be very clear for the illustration to work. 12" x16" , oil on paper mounted to board. 169;Wizards of the Coast.

Friday, May 23, 2014. Oil on board, 16" x 24". 169;Wizards of the Coast. Here's the second painting of Marchesa, The Black Rose I created for Magic's new Conspiracy. Set I really enjoy painting these vertical full format cards.
