Description Here's a quick 3 hour acrylic on canvas I did yesterday for my doodle. My sister and I watch the show Merlin, and so I did this from memory to see if I could get it accurately. I haven't checked yet if it's wrong.

And yeah, I'm going through a blue phase.

02.24.2010 Daily Doodle Speedie

Also available to view in person in my upcoming show May 2nd-31st 2010. Note me for more info! Sorry I've been so busy! Things will free up once the exhibition is hung..

wow! that's amazing!! it only took you three hours???? i like how you've made the dragon and the wall behind merlin lighter from the light from the torch. it's given it a more real feel to it.

I've wanted to see that show forever, but I keep missing it
love the colors, they add to the atmosphere of the cave, and give it that 'magical' quality that brown and grey just don't have

mynti In reply to Bronwen-Amaia [2011-01-26 13:13:13 +0000 UTC]

I disagree. I think any color can seem magical.

Bronwen-Amaia In reply to mynti [2011-01-26 22:26:16 +0000 UTC]

I know, but blue underground just seems more magical than a more 'normal' color would

Nice effect. I particularly like the lighting deeper in the cave. The dragon is cool too.

I like the show, too. I have to say though, the dragon is golden. But the sense of scale is just right.

mynti In reply to Ranarh [2010-04-26 20:02:03 +0000 UTC]

haha, I haven't yet checked to see how inaccurate I am, but yeah, I've forgotten exactly how the dragon looks, so I sort of went with the flow...

The idea is to practice remembering details, and in that I failed, obviously! But it was fun to paint regardless..

Ranarh In reply to mynti [2010-04-26 20:29:09 +0000 UTC]

Oh no, I recognized the scene instantly! Your memory is admirable accurate. And I know what you mean, I paint a character of a friend and forget their emblematic two-handed sword . . .

p.s.: Shouldn't the third season be about to start?

Hehe, well, the show has many flaws, but it's enjoyable and one of the many things my sister and I can agree on to watch

Very impressive, and even more impressive that it's a speed doodle! The blue is very strong, and the choice for the subject is a Fav! Good choice ! Great work with the lighting & the bouncing of the light on the subjects (walls, figures, cave )

mynti In reply to joshpurple [2010-04-26 20:03:52 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I'm glad you like it! I had fun trying to remember how the dragon scenes looked.. but the light always stood out as pretty distinctive to me. So that's probably why it came out all right.
