Back into the swing
After a bit of a hiatus, I'm back into the swing of creating art. But I'm not so much into uploading it everywhere. So what comes here will be in fits and starts and not necessarily all of it. If you want to see everything pretty much as it's done, follow me on instagram or facebook. I've been messing with a lot more traditional media rather than digital art, though no doubt I'll swing back to digital art at some point, especially as I've just upgraded to ArtRage 5. Woot! And of course I'll have to dust off my Wacom Cintiq and break out one of my favourite drawing programs, Mischief, too at some point.
That never worked
The requests thing never worked very well for me or for anyone else. No one wanted requests except two people, and I got one of those done and then never finished the other.
I'm a bad person.
But I got a Wacom Cintiq 13" when I got my new computer, and so I went on a bit of a drawing spree as you can probably see from recent activity on this page. I've rediscovered the joy of drawing things that aren't people.
I bought a couple of cheap picture frames, the sort that have multiple windows in them. My aim is to draw some nice, generic pictures and print them out to put in the frames. Will see how that pans out, too.
Working a lot recently,
Requests (send me a pic of you!)
Right, I may regret this (especially since the last request post only got one), but I'm opening for 5 requests. But with a slight twist... Basically, I'm going to see about going to my local market and setting up a small stall where I take along my tablet and computer, and I do digital portraits of people. I need some examples to show. So...
What I need is for 5 people to send me a picture of themselves / a loved one (or link me to the picture) and I will turn it into a digital painting.
Please look through my gallery to see what sort of style it might end up in, because you'll notice that I don't do a lot of super realism stuff. I'll also
Request a character/couple
This sounded/looked like fun, so stolen from ixris (https://www.deviantart.com/ixris) - the only thing I say is that you must be watching me to request this, and first five get it.
Give me a character/couple from a TV show/movie/book (though if book, I will need references) and I will attempt to draw them.
I've gotta keep practising people because people are hard and faces are hard and sometimes drawing works for me and sometimes it really doesn't.
1. ixris (https://www.deviantart.com/ixris) requested Boy Blue, Flycatcher or Pinoccio from Fables.
