Week Ten: Is It April Yet? Artistic Nudity

March could be over already and that would be fine with me. It has been an inexplicably rough month even with Spring Break. At the very least my goal of finishing my second commission by April appears doable. It's just clothing and a simple background from here, and while skin is fun to color it can be difficult, especially with colored pencil.
We're onto our next project in Printmaking, which will be Intaglio. Trust me when I say Wikipedia could explain it better. At the very least it should go more smoothly than silk screen. This is my concept so far. I was not in the best of moods.

Finally started on the third commission, and it and the fourth are for the same person. This one will only be line art, but the other will be color.
Lastly, something from Figure Drawing on Monday because there weren't any results from Wednesday worth posting. We're doing India ink now. For some reason the longer poses are less stressful for me than warming up.

Week 17: Influence to Results


Okay, so this was finished last night but I didn't get around to posting it. The remainder of the work only took five minutes, but as per usual with me I kept putting it off. And now I'm not sure if it's the least bit obvious what it's supposed to be. This is why I usually draw rather than do anything else.

The collage at the top consists of what's inspired me through the years, mostly cartoons but a few artists and my father as well. That's a sort of... abstract outline of myself in the middle and the bottom collage is my own work, notably was has the most obvious influence from the images on top. Hopefully the glasses are at least somewhat of a decent visual cue.
