Art Squared

















Here's a question I ask myself all the time..."Where can I find some inspiration?"
The answer is easy! Look at books of art you like. I own these books located at: http://www.art2books.com
They are great to look through for entertainment, inspiration, or to waste time.
If you are an artist you can write them off in your taxes.

Memory sketch bust


On my way back from the NCN Con. I had a layover in Atlanta. I decided I wanted to do a memory sketch. As I walked to my gate I looked at various people. Then...there he was! A guy I needed to draw. So I took a mental snap shot and went to a restaurant and drew on the placemat. I did a quick drawing and then to my surprise, the guy I randomly chose to draw sat right next to me! This SOB wrecked my memory sketch! I didn't have to draw from memory when he's right friggin' there! What a jerk.


I snuck* a quick pic of him and acted like I was just trying to figure out my camera.

*Sure it's a word.

Life Drawing at the CON







As I mentioned in a previous post I went to the NCN convention. There were several workshops and one in particular that I enjoyed was DRAWING FROM LIFE with STEPHEN SILVER. It was a great class. We had a beautiful model posing named Schaulis. We did quick gesture poses and then we created a character based on her and did 4 point turns.

Vertigo


Here's my entry for a monthly contest on the NCN forum. The contest is to do a still from a Hitchcock movie. I picked Vertigo. I thought it would be interesting doing an illustration that showed a reflection.
