Like water and foliage, hair has always presented a unique challenge to both the traditional painter and the digital artist. If you define individual locks too much, there’s a tendency for it to come out looking like a string mop. And if the edges are too hard, it tends to sit on the head like a leather helmet. To solve the “string mop” problem, group the strands of hair into large masses and look for soft edges. This detail of a painting by Harry Anderson has the hair flowing in broad, wavy shapes. He has also softened the edges at the temple, just to the left of her eye, and where the hair meets the neck. http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com/2008/04/hair-string-mop.html

New mural in LA with Kofie for Sound Space/KROQ/RedBull

http://mac-arte.blogspot.com/2011/10/new-mural-in-la-with-kofie-for-sound.html Here's some shots of a new mural I just painted with my good friend Kofie in LA. It was commissioned for the new Red Bull Sound Space venue at the KROQ headquarters. Coincidentally, I just painted a guitarist in Spain recently, so this is a more modern, harder, electric companion to that.
