The flying Saur.







A 3D maguette can be very helpful!
I worked the details in Photoshop. I could use
the same head for two pictures (and allways more if I need...).
A commercial work. After one year I can more write about it...

"Wild Horse" - Pierangelo Boog













Once day I have found a horse sketch that I have done many years
ago. The expressive power and life of it has inspired me to start
a painting on it. The result is "White Horse". When I paint I change
sometimes in the last minute again the sketch and Im flexibel enough
to "upgrade" my self. You see this in the head of the woman and many other
details.

The Kroko-Putto in the Railwaystation Zürich


He was always there in the main station of Zurich.
Then, once day, he was disappeared for many weeks.
Made me sad. Perhaps stolen? Some days ago he stand
again on his old place, the crocodile in his hands!
