Super Duper Mario

Super Duper Mario made his appearance in southern California at a workshop I gave for Blizzard Entertainment artists in Irvine yesterday.


After a half hour chat on materials and setup, I did this demo painting using gouache over a brayer-applied sky gradient.


About 20 of the top artists for World of Warcraft and Diablo set up their paints and brushes and joined the fun, painting their visions of giant steampunk dragonflies, Mothmans, Bowsers, and huge pink kitties.

  

Here's Gabriel Gonzalez working on his picture. Each of us had a figurine or toy to help for reference.


It was a fun day out in the light for all of us, and good practice for today's Colossal Character event at City Hall in Pasadena.
