CaricaTURES

Sometimes you see someone's face and go 'Gee, he/she has such strong features!'..that's what I thought when I saw Timothy Omundson on Psych - plus he looks a little like Rowan Atkinson don't you think? While sketching them, I had to try really hard not to draw them realistically, in proportion, and instead kept reminding myself...'Exaggerate! Exaggerate! - What features of theirs jump out the most?' Short but fun and interesting experience. Will be doing more of these in between to get a better hang at it.

No more Chuck!

I really hope you can recognize him. And if you don't... aw well. It's Zachary Levi...or you may know him as Chuck Bartowski from the NBC TV series Chuck (that just ended!! D':  hence the want to paint him) or as the voice of Flynn Ryder from Disney's Tangled. and of course I used photo reference for this. Gosh, that first pencil sketch looks so scary, doesn't it? ^^" I will miss all those Chuck x Sarah moments!   :(

A break from the tablet

Tried out a Toner Gray copic marker here. I'm still not used to using them though...kinda messy. I'll just have to keep experimenting.

 

Also, I've been playing around with acrylic painting - learning the basics under the guidance of a Mr. Bob Davies   ;)  Love his videos!

another city sketch

Sketching in the city on a Sunday afternoon, ... after a hectic week!

Gotta keep that pencil moving.

Art/Music Collaboration: Dwarves In The Sky

Added  a new artwork to the Gallery. Just completed yesterday, an art/music collaboration with Karimn 'Patt-Ytto' D.K.I. Please view the artwork as you listen to his beautiful music. Unfortunately, with the way I have set up my pages, I can't place the music in the Gallery. Make sure you turn up the volume enough to hear the percussion and strings.


Title: Dwarfs In The Sky by Karimn 'Patt-Ytto' D.K.I. (I used the Title as in his DeviantArt upload)

Music has always been a huge inspiration to me so I'd wanted to do something like this for a while now. This may not be one of my best work, but I've definitely learnt a lot from it. I hope to do more of such collaborations in the future   :)   So I thank Patt-Ytto for letting me have a go at creating a scene from a piece of music.

You may find him on DeviantArt and on Newgrounds.


Till next time then.
