Decided to put those glass frog studies to good use and came up with the concept of a glass dragon. I really wanted to keep a lot of the features of the frogs relevant in the design of the dragon; the big eyes and rounded fingers and toes. This was one of the more challenging pieces to have worked on. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #concept #creature #creaturedesign #dragon #dragonart #fantasy  #fantasyart #fantasycreature #fantasyillustration #fantasypainting #glass #illustration #creatureart #glassdragon #dragonillustration #creatureconcept

Some compositions I put together of a glass dragon inspired by the studies of frogs that I'd done. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #composition #art #illustration #painting #digitalpainting #digitalart #conceptart #concept #dragon #dragonart #glassdragon #translucent #blackandwhite #dragons #compositions

That's all the frog paintings I'm doing for now. I made a recording of the bottom which you can check out on my YouTube channel.

Some studies of frogs with translucent features. They're quite challenging to paint because it's not just their skin that is translucent, it's their bones and muscles too. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #frog #frogs #translucent #glassfrogs #amphibian #animal #light #colour #color #skin #aquatic #creature #study #art #artstudy #painting #illustration

Still life painting I started off yesterday and finished today. This was very enjoyable to work on. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #painting #stilllife #stilllifepainting #still #life #art #tomato #choppingboard #kitchen #benchtop #digitalpainting #digitalart #digital #illustration #artistic #colour #color #lighting #light #naturallight #diffusedlight

Some rock studies from today. Pushing the use of the lasso tool to get some of those hard edges. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #rock #rockstudy #rockpainting #painting #geology #art #artstudy #nature

What my sketch book pages look like lately. My approach has been on line efficiency and accuracy (debateable) and using whatever free space there is, even if there are overlaps. Lots of overlaps. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #sketchbook #messy #sketch #sketchy #figure #figuredrawing #drawing #anatomy #gesturedrawing

A small crop of a commission I've been working on. Have a tiny bit to go on it still but I was super happy with how the face came out. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #traceroverwatch #tracer #overwatch #blizzard #blizzardentertainment #fanart #characterart #character #art #illustration #commission #drawing #painting #digitalart

I've been listening to lectures by Jordan Peterson over the last couple of days which has loosely inspired this sketch. www.facebook.com/artofjuliandelio #sketch #composition #drawing #dragon #hero #fantasy #mythology #mythical #myth
