I live in Norway, so a simple bus trip often provides me with already perfectly composed images. naturally framed by the window. This is what happened here.

loish study

workout jar

I will hereby introduce you to my new artist workout method. It’s a jar. Yep. A jar filled with lots and lots of little post its. What’s on the post its? Well basically all the things about which I always tell myself “Ah, I should get around to doing that at some point”. I am not referring here to vacuuming my place or doing the laundry. This is a little more art oriented, like master studies and focused anatomy practice :D.

Since I pretty much suck at keeping a habit for longer than 3 weeks, I thought I should embrace my thirst for variation. Whenever I have time for a workout session, I’ll pick a ticket and do whatever is on there.

The first one told me to study the progress and work of loish (one of the art sweethearts of the internet). Then I had to apply what I learned in my own manner.

So..what I took from her here was:

-working from dark to light

-color variation

-build the nose and corner of lips more carefully

– rythm

-using one brush for painting and just one soft one for some final light effects

-confidence to use max 2-3 layers

Also, I used the 4th brush in this set, from AlectorFencer, for pretty much everything. I really enjoyed saving the time on browsing through brushes and focusing on colors instead.

Here is the reference I used : a gorgeous redhead

And here are some videos of Loish’s progress: my god she is good.

Stay tuned for my next workout 😀

See what I did there? :p  Just a 30-40 min sort of doodle. wouldn’t really call it speedpaint either. It was a bit of a mindless experiment with color. Just really felt like painting a purple gradient today.

Lately I enjoy looking at people’s albums on Facebook, picking a picture and then using it as reference for a more or less quick sketch. It’s easier than picking a random reference image cause I actually know these people’s personalities and have an easier time finding the attitude to put in.

So this was a school assignment: creating the environment for my interpretation of the Grimm Brothers’ story The Skillful Huntsman (plus a version where the atmosphere or season changes). My version tries to maintain the fairytale aspect while introducing contemporary issues and elements. Did a lot of studies of Bavarian houses for this. Quite cozy. I will return to this for a final polish later, when I am less sick *cough, cough, sneeze. town_arrival_v03_small

Calypso

So here is what I managed to put together in the spare hours. It started as practice for painting skin and I was driven by the vision of a girl wearing orchids in her hair. Well, that felt a bit boring and I decided to spice it up, make her into a innocent looking temptress. This is how Calypso took shape, named after the nymph that kept Odysseus captive on her island. Strange how our pieces/characters begin to have a life of their own after a while.
