Work In Progress: First Watercolor Rendering

Here's my first watercolor rending of my ideas for a comic book. I've grown pretty attached to the characters. Strange. ;)

"Lucifer"

"Denny"

"Pol"

Drawing Tutorials!

I came across these AMAZING drawing tutorials last night. There's a bunch of them, and I've watched at least a dozen. They're all great, and I can find something in each of them. The artist, Kathryn Hagen, has several books out, relating to fashion design.

I love the use of mixed media. She throws a little of everything in her drawings!
Check out her YouTube tutorials.

Comic Book Tattoos

I'm making the push. I'm up very early. I'm inspired, which is a great feeling. Until the lack of sleep catches my toes and makes them drag.

My comic project is for the band Circle of Signs. I don't know if they'll use what I create, but I have a life swimming around in my brain. To be born. It will be a life for me, even if it's not what they're looking for. I'm very excited to dip my toes into new territory. I suppose tattooing is a bit like comic/graphic novels in some ways. Maybe I'm underestimating the works I've already done. I suppose something has to lead me to this path. Now let's get those toes moving and speed down the avenue!

Ian McKellen

Here's my lastest drawing of Ian McKellen. I felt drawn to the character Gandalf in Lord of The Rings.

Pencil Drawing: Daniel Craig

I have recently been motivated to work on some portrait drawings again. I haven't done any in atleast 10 years. The inpspiration comes from thinking about faces for clay, I'm sure. I figure doing some flat portraits will definately allow me to brush up on getting used to looking at faces. I realized a trend however. The portraits I like are high contrast and if I can work some hands into it, even better. I'm stuck with my first clay angel; a fear of doing hands. I also need to get some more contrast with the face coloring. Victor's a whole other story.

Daniel Craig was a challenge! My first drawing like this in over 12 years. It's still rough behind the ears, but here's the sketched out version.
