I needed a break from my other WIPs, and I had recently (finally) come up with a design for Malon as she appears in my Sky Pirates story, so I figured a nice little concept art would offer me a good break. This is also how Link will appear in Sky Pirates, although I've had his design for quite a while now. Still not sure about some of the color palettes, so those might change as I continue to refine things, but overall I'm really happy with how my project is coming along, even if the progress is a bit all over the place. I also tried out something new for the hair shading, although I'm not...sure how keen I am about it yet, although it is easier than what I have been doing. I'm also not sure if I'll stick with adding stylistic halftones to the shadows yet or not, but they are fun to add in. My weird semi-hiatus will continue, as this continues to be the busiest part of the year for me.

I completely forgot to post this yesterday because I was still recovering from a medical test and literally just, spaced posting art. Anyhow, my Christmas gift for @therebedraws of her DnD OC Aldrynn, who is a spectacular bastard (affectionate) in both the campaign of her's I'm playing in and in her other campaigns. He ended up being a mix of fun to draw and somewhat challenging due to character design and "wearing a sexy outfit" as a prompt. I rarely use oranges as main colors in art, so this ended up being a really challenging and interesting piece all in all, and I had a lot of fun!

I will be posting on the correct day next week, I just got my days all mixed up again. The final Christmas art, this one for my friend Midori of Annmarie from her webcomic The Search for Henry Jekyll . The Search for Henry Jekyll is coming to an end soon, so when I was given free reign to draw whatever I liked, I wanted to draw one of my favorite characters. The story's really fun, and while I'm sad to see it come to an end I'm also excited to see how the final arc will play out, I would highly recommend reading for those who enjoy suspense and drama mixed with homage to a beloved classic.

This was originally an old sketch from 2019, but I felt like trying to ink and color it digitally to see how that would come along. I remember sketching without a reference, hence the outfits being just whatever I could remember to draw instead of the in-game armor. I have a lot of ideas for other artworks and haven't had a chance to draw these two recently, so it was nice to complete an artwork of them again!

My #1 post of 2022

I have been working on this for...over a month. Which isn't actually that long for this type of illustration, but I do not want to try and emulate the "Skyward Sword official art textured shading" again, not for another year at least (it crashed Photoshop like, five times). I'm not even sure the shading is good, I've been looking at this for too long. I drew the knotted border by hand, but that was somehow easier than dealing with the shadows and highlights. Anyhow! I loved Triangle Strategy, and I loved these two especially. The writers did a good job convincing me Serenoa and Frederica fell deeply in love over the course of the story, and it was just, such a soft and sweet romance. I love the way they love each other. Originally wasn't planning to make this a dancing pose, but that's how the sketch eventually worked out, and I'm happy regardless. At this point I think the "intimate forehead touch" is just my go-to for soft romantic art, not that I'm complaining.

I am challenging myself to complete Whumptober 2021 this year!

Nathaniel Mary Quinn at Gagosian 980 Madison Avenue, New York

August 30, 2021

NATHANIEL MARY QUINN NOT FAR FROM HOME; STILL FAR AWAY

September 17–October 30, 2021 980 Madison Avenue, New York __________ I hope to convey a sense of how our experiences, both good and bad, operate to construct our identities. I also want to portray a mutual relationship between the acceptable and the unacceptable, the grotesque and what is aesthetically pleasing. —Nathaniel Mary Quinn Gagosian is pleased to present NOT FAR FROM HOME; STILL FAR AWAY, an exhibition of new paintings and works on paper by Nathaniel Mary Quinn. This is his first exhibition with the gallery in New York. In striking composite portraits rendered in charcoal, gouache, oil paint, oil stick, and pastel, Quinn probes the relationship between perception and memory. Bringing together visual fragments from a variety of sources—including online media, fashion magazines, comic books, and family snapshots—he conjures hybrid faces and figures that are neo-Dadaist in their fractured appearance, yet realist in their carefully painted details and overall psychological effect—a divide that speaks to the intensity of in-person encounters. With these portraits, Quinn furthers his dynamic take on the Surrealist strategy of the cadavre exquis. Working without preliminary sketches, he produces near perfect simulations of torn-paper collages. Rough-hewn yet precisely realized, these disjunctive visions are consistent with the complicated personalities and social issues they represent. By focusing on the multifaceted and mercurial nature of the subconscious mind—and by relating key episodes and individuals from the past to larger societal currents—Quinn transcends simple likeness in his portraits to achieve a visceral fusion of invention and recollection.

Pilcher and Jackson (2021), Quinn’s largest work on paper to date, is a tribute to Dr. Joy E. Pilcher and Ms. Jacquenette Jackson, teachers from his Chicago schooldays. The grassy field before which the sturdy figures stand is the grounds of Zenos Colman Elementary School, where the two educators took a pivotal interest in Quinn’s educational and social development. In The Lesson of Cut-Rate Liquor (2021), Quinn alludes to a more troubled aspect of his background: a local “studio of excessive drinking” where, he recalls, his late alcoholic brother, Eugene, could always be found. The image of a crumpled face peering out from beneath a broad-brimmed hat hints at the deleterious effects of drink, a habit that “Baby-Gene,” like many before and after him, developed to cope with the challenges of his environment.

Quinn has worked extensively in diptychs, using the form to symbolize the dichotomy of human personality. Double-Barreled Shotgun (2021) recalls a painful betrayal, akin to a shot from the titular weapon, that he experienced at the hands of a now-estranged relative. Vertically split into two halves—the left colorful and sunny, the right in dark-toned grisaille—the male subject captivates with his direct, confrontational gaze, symbolizing the stark contrast between affect and actions. In Frog (2021), however, the diptych stands for a more nuanced complexity as Quinn revisits the subject of the first composite portrait he made eight years ago: his brother Charles. The work appears joyful—vibrant daubs of paint dance around Charles’s face and toothy smirk—yet it is physically sundered, a reminder of the hesitancies and indelible schisms that define human relationships. Nathaniel Mary Quinn was born in Chicago in 1977 and lives and works in New York. Collections include the Brooklyn Museum, New York; Studio Museum in Harlem, New York; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, DC; Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami; Pérez Art Museum Miami; Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, AR; Art Institute of Chicago; Sheldon Museum of Art, Lincoln, NE; Denver Art Museum; The Broad, Los Angeles; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; and Museo Jumex, Mexico City. Exhibitions include the Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts, New York (2013); and This is Life, Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, WI (2018–19). _____ Nathaniel Mary Quinn, Double-Barreled Shotgun, 2021, charcoal, gouache, and soft pastel on Coventry vellum paper, 48 × 45 inches (121.9 × 114.3 cm) © Nathaniel Mary Quinn
