Sally Nightmare Before Christmas Art

Like so many other people who make art in my genre, the works of Tim Burton have been a large influence in my own creations. This being the 20th anniversary year of The Nightmare Before Christmas, I've been really wanting to make an homage piece for the film. Finally, in the last month of 2013, I slipped one in.



I needed to knock this out in one day, due to Christmas commissions needing to be completed, so I cranked away on this for about 11 hours straight and completed it on schedule. The finished piece is 6"x12" colored pencil and acrylic on wood. Let me know if you think I should do more "Nightmare" art!

I always have fun doing these renditions of comic book characters. This commissioned "Punisher" is a 5"x7" colored pencil drawing on illustration board. If you're thinking about commissioning me for an original piece, don't hesitate to send an email ~ bryancollinsart@gmail.com

Press Start at FNDTN Gallery

The video game fanatic in me has been itching to be part of an art exhibit focused on the same and the time has finally come. I have created two new pieces in the new media-combo I've been pursuing lately. Each piece is colored pencil and acrylic paint on wood and will be debuted by FNDTN Gallery on opening night.

"PRESS START" is a group show featuring artwork by local (Maryland area) and national artists inspired by video games. The show will run from Friday, May 10th, to Saturday, May 25th, with an opening reception for the event on May 10th at 7PM.

The concept behind this painting is looking for renewal and life in a time of death.
