Someone told me that I should think more in terms of planes and not stop at seperating the light and dark - families. I think it helped to get me to another understanding of painting. Also I started to do my studies more and more in values, since they are so much more important than the actual colors.
Hope you dig it.

Here are some studies I did in order to prepare for more illustrations. I annotated some insights about values on these. I am also doing figure drawing practice every day, but I am too lazy to upload them :D
Studiiiiiieeeees. I got another boost to do studies by Jan Drenovec, who is an amazing painter and gives great feedback on my work :)
To warm up, for today's work, I decided to do a digital sketch. Just something to have a little fun with, instead of diving straight into paid work. I took a long stroll yesterday, ended up next to a grave-yard. Probably that is why I way inspired to paint one myself.
Have a great week. A digital study of an oil painting by the amazing "Qiang Huang", to help me get a better grasp of the use of brushes. And from this I managed to create some photoshop-brushes for you to download.
Hey guys,
it has been a longer absence again and I apologize. So hopefully something to make up for it. I decided to take part in the monthly Character Design Challange (CDC in short) over at Facebook. The theme this month was: AZTEC WARRIOR. And since I love animals so much, I decided to do a anthropomorphic lizard dude for this. I followed a very streamlined process this time and waited until the very with painting freely. I think it paid out. Most importantly thanks to Christian Retzlaff and Jan Drenovec for their feedback. See the GIF below for the whole process. |
This is my blog. I will share information about workflow, my insights into image-making or just general thoughts and rants about being an artist. Archives
