More Uni Sturrrf

One day I will get around to posting the more interesting design work stuff... that is if I can ever get confident at it!

David hockney inspired

Linessss. I would really like to take this somewhere stylistically, and it's good fun.

Some more observation

Zoo Sketchy

Annual Zoo sketches. I think I'll practice animal anatomy a lot more, then try and get back to a zoo some more this year! I didn't get a massive yield of sketches I liked.

Mo' Charcoal Stuff

More gesture life sketches... Some came out ok but I need to make more confident lines rather than many small ones.

MoreLifeeee.

Most of these poses are up to 10 minutes or longer, which is cool but I need to practice quick gestural drawings so much more, mine are terrible! and they're what's going to count in the long term. I am enjoying Pen drawing though :)

Inspired by...

For Christmas, I was lucky enough to be bought a book titled 'Moonshine', which is a fantastic book showing some of the art Dreamworks artists get up to for fun when they're not working on the next great feature. It's an awesome book filled with an abundance of styles, one of which came from a couple of digital compositions by, the great, Marcos Mateu Mestre! I liked the graphic novelesque style of heavy black lines and blocked tone. So I made some pen drawings and decided to paint over them in a similar style, it ALSO gave me a chance to play around with the calligraphic brushes on photoshop and get some more practice with digital painting. :) So here is one of perhaps two compositions I will create, the model was my sister, playing Super Mario Sunshine (Love the gamecube! ;D)
