The original piece was part of larger set, but didn't necessarily match up stylistically. Working in color, I wanted to move the piece more towards my original vision: A molten figure singing in a pit of fire. The fiery emotions here have built up to a point where they are consuming everything.

Exhumed: The Black Sun
This image was originally posted on my other art blog, Trail of Breadcrumbs, but I feel that its tone and meaning work better here at Zombie Bites. Here we have a personification of the Black Sun, an Occult as well as Alchemical symbol. When coloring this piece, I felt like the image needed some moody lighting to set off the brooding aspect of the piece. I wanted to give the piece the feeling of a much larger space so I added a mist effect by layering a series of soft gradients throughout the image.

Exhumed: Partial Skull
Following along with Halloween and All Saints Day, here's a skull I dug up for this weeks Exhumed. This Partial Skull was one of the first pieces I began playing with when I began exhuming my older works. As I played with the color and transparency in this piece, I began to realize that a lot more was possible and just let the Photoshop paintbrush guide me. Once I added the yellow highlights on the right side, the lightbulb went off in my head and I knew I had to explore this style further! In working on this piece, I also realized that I am a total geek for color effects. :-)
