some figure analysis

I could color it...but I don't want to.

practicing some heads

Some head construction drawing practice.

more paintings from 2nd semester

So silly me, there was a class I completely forgot about, and these are a bunch of paintings from it. How it slipped my mind I have no idea. These are from Digital/Traditional painting taught by Jon Foster and Vanessa Lemen at TAD.

Figure Rendering 1

Really quick figure rendering. Around 30-40 min.

2nd Semester DONE!

So the second semester is done and I can post a few things I've done during school. Some illustrations done for Composition 2, cast drawing, some anatomy studies, and a comic book based on Winsor Mcay's Little Nemo, done for visual narrative. If you want to view the comic pages more closely, just right click on it > open image in new tab or window and you can zoom in to see the detail and dialogue.

Summer Challenge - Week 4

So I think this'll be the last week I do these kinds of drawings. As helpful as these are, they are starting to become tedious, so I gotta switch them up and something else entirely.

Summer Challenge - Week 3

Some more paintings and master copy paintings. I tried duplicating the look from Simon Goinard and Richard Schmid. Talk about difficult. But I learned a lot about variety in marks and composition. Also being loose with the initial layout of a painting was something I had always had trouble with. But after doing those master copy paintings, I don't think that is going to be a problem anymore. They aren't 100% exact, but they aren't really meant to be. Especially Simon Goinard's work. Unless I had the exact same brushes he had, there is no way I could completely duplicate what he made. So I just opted to get as close as possible and make custom brushes as I needed them. Maybe I'll try a different painting style next week.
