Reaper Water Demon

This was painted as an entry the the 4th Chick Challenge. I painted in while on vacation in Florida. It was a great experience to be sitting outside in the sun painting a figure. I used a limited color pallet, consisting of only two primary colors for the body, and then a single off white color was used to mix with the base colors, creating the lighter shaded. The original base was removed, and the figure was added to this larger base. The water way created by taking a large brush and applying gesso to the base, and then highlighting with various blue and green shades. I added several layers of gloss finish to the water to finish it off.

The water base just looks incredible, and is really complimentary to the figure. Awesome job!
