Happy 2013!
I did these studies over the Holiday break. I tend to paint with saturated colors and wanted to study something with a different palette. So I did these studies from the film "Seven Swords". It's the initial introduction to the bad guys in the film and what I really liked was that besides having great designs and compositions, this intro also has a very grey-brown dusty palette with just hints of saturated reds. It makes for a very bold statement and I really enjoyed and learned a lot by doing these. Hope you liked them too!
