This week's artings












I just realised that every one of these is looking in the same direction...oops. Still practising my painting and use of colour and lighting. I find it difficult to get an idea in my head onto (digital) canvas so most of these started off with me having no idea what I was drawing at the beginning, then developing something out of the scribbles.

Sunday, Monday Happy Days!

Sunday and Monday's doodles.

All done in OpenCanvas 1.1, a fairly simple painting and drawing programme that's free to download.






Today's Inspirations

Brilliant example of how photo textures can be manipulated and used in digital painting.

Some beautiful digital paint studies of hands in sunlight by teyoliia on deviantART. I love the effects and these almost look like photos from the thumbnail.

Mech Thumbs

I started a kind of daily-ish challenge to draw a page of mech thumbnails inspired by Sinix. I learned a bit about silhouette and design and I think there's quite a bit of improvement since the first page. I may try and render a couple in the future.

Sinix has some really good videos to do with design theory, colour theory and all kinds of good stuff!
