Triceratops in the Rain

October 25, 2020 by danvoltzart

It’s all about the Triceratops. The other day, my wife and I went to William O’Brien State Park here in Minnesota. There was a light drizzle when our hike started. But that light rain quickly became quite the downpour. And that’s what inspired this particular piece. I wanted to add the Triceratops herd to this piece because, well, Trikes are a bit of a challenge. I can paint a velociraptor with no problem, but I don’t paint a lot of […]

Post Apocalyptic Book Club

October 15, 2020 by danvoltzart

I’m not sure where the idea for this post-apocalyptic book club came from, but the image popped into my head in essentially this form. I don’t always like to paint like that. Usually, I like to thumbnail. (I don’t thumbnail as much as I should, but it’s still an important part of my process.) So, the idea here is that even in a post-apocalyptic future, people will still want to read. And this seemed like a nice, quiet spot for […]

Nebula Class Star Trek Art – USS Farragut “Entering Orbit”

So for this piece, I really wanted to highlight the shapes, lines, and coolness of the Nebula class starship. But I also wanted to see the Nebula class from an angle that we typically didn’t. TNG, and ensuing episodes of Trek, often shot the Nebula in a very “top down” way, meaning we saw […]

The Airlock

October 1, 2020 by danvoltzart

So, I had this image in my head of an astronaut entering a rather ominous looking airlock. And that was really the only basis for this painting when I started. As I got into it, I also wanted to try to do some cool things with the light (and, specifically, with the light changing based on the environment). I’m happy with the way this piece turned out. I accomplished what I set out to do, and that’s something. I also […]
