"I started watching this show recently, some of you may have heard of it. Well, it has a cast of many amazing faces to draw and paint, Daenerys is definitely one of those faces worth painting. Doing this painting with the show playing in the background definitely helped to capture the personality. This is done in oil on a primed panel exactly 9 x 12″."

Paintings: Cersei Lannister

One of the Redditors notes "That dress has a similar colour scheme to Sheogorath's clothes from Shivering Isles. Fitting. Mad God, mad Queen."  Another remarks that, "It's a true mark of artisan quality when a painting of a fake queen from a fictional tv show makes you want to smack the shit out of the painting."  I have to agree with the last.  Cersei is far and away my favorite television character to root against... at least now that Joffrey is dead.
"You could be the king, but watch the queen conquer 👑 👑 👑 It only took me a year and a half but I finally finished a Queen Cersei painting?? Also someone come hang out with me please because I need something to do now that this is done"

Paintings: Because It Felt Good


Prints available for purchase from inPRNT. US$15/20/40

I don't think there's ever been a character more fun to hate than Cersei Lannister.  You root for her to get her comeuppance, then you root for her to get her revenge.  In this portrait Vjuzhanina catches everyone's favorite villainess in a moment of quite introspection, looking every inch the evil queen.

As I was scrolling through the Game of Thrones SubReddit, I initially thought that the thumbnail of this painting was a photo. Turns out it's a digital painting by portrait artist Mandy Jurgens who does some incredible work. If you like this one, you have to check out her Wonder Woman and Armor study.  Make sure you follow the source link and give her a much-deserved upvote for her effort.

Paintings: Van Gogh Never


"Van Gogh Never" by Scotia, New York-based artist Aja Kusick
Prints available for purchase from Etsy. US$12

For an ongoing series entitled "Van Gogh Never," Aja Kusick recreates Vincent van Gogh’s Starry Night as a backdrop for pop culture characters.  The series started when an education blog mistakenly shared Aja’s painting of the Eiffel Tower as a Van Gogh original despite the fact that the artist died in poverty just a year after the monument was completed.  After that, Kusick decided to create other paintings of things that Van Gogh never saw, from the TARDIS flying over Gallifrey to a Super Mario Bros. level.

Video: Ghost in the Shell Painting


[ Previously: Fan Art Round-Up: The Major (Ghost in the Shell) Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 ]

"The painting process of a piece I did for the upcoming Ghost in the Shell film. This was a bit of a tough piece that required a lot of patience and experimentation of new techniques and processes, but it worked out pretty well I think. The film hits the theatres on March 30th, so I’m super excited to finally see it!"

Interior Design: Color Pallete Wall


Via: Imgur

Wow.  This is awesome, but Jesus, this guy has waaay too much time on him hands.
"This is a wall in my bedroom. When I bought my house I had to repaint everything since the previous owners where clearly not painters. Anyway after painting the room white I knew I needed an accent wall but couldn't decide on the color. So I made the joke about painting it every color.

570 different colors. All hand mixed using a syringe so I can recreate them if i ever need to. The only store bought colors were Black, White, Yellow, Cyan, and Magenta."

Quick Pic: Mona Lisa and Golden Ratio

Mona Lisa and Golden Ratio

"Mona Lisa and Golden Ratio"
Source: Chaosophia218

Mona Lisa (also known as La Gioconda or La Joconde) is a 16th century portrait painted in oil on a poplar panel by Leonardo da Vinci during the Italian Renaissance. The work is owned by the Government of France and is on the wall in the Louvre in Paris. It is perhaps the most famous and iconic painting in the world.

Prevalent in the major works of Leonardo Da Vinci and underlying many of his design compositions, is the Phi relationship (also known as the Golden Ratio or the Golden Mean), a Ratio of approximately 1:1.618, found in Nature and Creation, and inherent in the Fibonacci sequence. The Golden Rectangle, the Golden Triangle, and the Golden Pyramid, all based on the Golden Ratio are all appear prominent in the work of Leonardo Da Vinci. He referred to the Golden Ratio as the “Divine Proportion.”

Also, certain Solar System orbital periods and relative planetary distances are also related to Phi. Some scientists say that the shape of the Universe itself is a Dodecahedron based on Phi.
