Little bit pressed for time today but I really wanted to take part so this was roughly about a 15 minute piece. With more time I would of made this a bit more polished though I think it still conveys what I was going for.
Today I finally had the time to participate in the speed paint challenge, so my first painting is for Edgar Allen Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death". With plague and death being a part of the novel I decided on making a gritty looking cover.
