Private Commission I was contacted by a MAGIC: The Gathering fan wanting to give a gift to a fellow game fan celebrating the birth of twins. The main figure is based on the card art I did for "SAND GOLEM", from the MIRAGE set for M:TG (although he's looking much friendlier here!). Like much of my more recent work, the piece started life digitally and was printed out on high-quality watercolor paper. From there, final details were rendered with acrylic paint and colored pencils.
