Some more artist studies. The top two are Peter de Seve and the bottom two is Chhuy-ing ia ( i think thats her name...) and here is a link to her work. its pretty awesome. http://ciiawhatsup.blogspot.com/
I've kept up on the drawing, just not the scanning and posting. Here are the past couple days of drawings. I've been drawing from the Peter de Seve book I got a while back; the more I look at it and draw from it the more I love his work.
Here is all of my work for the first week of Lee White's advanced Illustration class. Super fun stuff, and the class looks like its going to be way awesome. Super pumped for the next weeks illustrations. Also. Todays drawing.
Headed down to "A Children's Place" bookstore today to catch David Shannon reading "It's Christmas David!"from the latest in his "No, David!" series. Really good presentation and he did a "How To" drawing demo; to which, I dutifully followed along (although I noticed that none of the 4 and 5 year olds in the audience bothered to -- slackers)
I just got an ipad and here are two sketches that I did on it. I used the sketchbookpro app and the special stylus pen that only works for the ipad. The stylus pen has a spongy tip and is very thin and not really comfortable for drawing...actually my hand hurt after doing it for a while. The ipad is not very pressure sensitive when you compare it to the wacom tablets or the cintiq. It is a glimpse at what is to come and I believe that in two years these tablets will be right up to par with the cintiq. One other crit is that you aren't able to create a 300dpi image with the ipad, but you can sketch up an ideas and e-mail them to yourself open it in photoshop and then jack up that resolution to do your final render.
• Label your posts like this: month.day.year Name. For example, 08.17.09 LWhite •The goal is least a full page in a sketchbook per day • Any subject matter, media, level of finish is fine • You should post at least every three days • Pages should be dated • The overall goal for the sketches is to have fun and to draw when the moment or opportunity presents itself. Also to encourage experimentation and interpretation. The goal is NOT for every page to be pretty.
