Eva and Saffron

What cuties. I figured seeing as I hadn't drawn any sparkle dogs in a long long while, I'd finally get around to drawing these two together. I find it hard to keep track of which of my dogs I've drawn or not, because I don't upload most of them. I'll colour this at some point

Vic WIP

Oh lordy, its kinda huge, and it's not even the whole image haha. Its Vic Fuentes from the band Pierce the Veil. He is so gorgeous and has fantastic hair, I just had to draw him. It's not finished, his face still looks a little funny and there's a heap more I can do to make it better.


I'm planning to do at least one pencil portrait over my two week break, but I'm moving house, making myself a cardigan and catching up on my sleep, so we'll see how that pans out.

Cute People

Two for the price of one! How about that? The top sketch is one I did earlier this year, in about April I think, and the second is one I did a couple of days ago of Lisbeth Salander, one of the main characters in the Millennium series by Steig Larsson. I watched the English version of 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' a few weeks back and it was awesome, I'm currently reading the books and I want to watch the Swedish versions of the films because I adore Noomi Rapace.

Cave of the storm nymphs

It was my 21st birthday last Friday (woo!) and my parents bought me several large glossy art books, needless to say I nearly died when I opened them. One of them is Victorian Painting by Lionel Lambourne and its the most amazing book I've ever read in my life, its 500 pages of pure awesome. I found this painting in the 'Nudes and Classical influences' section and it blew my mind. It's called Cave of the Storm Nymphs by Sir Edward John Poynter, have a look at it, it's truly fantastic.

Anyway, I decided to do a study of the nymphs because I haven't done a speed paint or a study in a long while, I wasn't going to upload this but sencilsketches asked me to. So here you go WIP I of my Storm Nymph study.

Space Bear

He was going to be a sun bear (my favourite) but his space suit covered his markings, so I made him a generic looking bear instead. Then again, it doesn't really matter what species of bear he is, because he is in space.

Sky

This started off being a simple speedpaint practice and both paintings were done on a single layer each (I don't recommend it) The Pegasus was my friend Natalie's idea, she said I should paint a pnk sky with a mountain and a pegasus, so I did, then we added the two to my lightning painting as well. Fun times!

So we have been having some server issues at Uni over the past few week, and we keep losing access to it (which can get very frustrating when you're animating digitally and are trying to save your work) so in between working on my group project and waiting for the student server to not crash and die, I've been doodling circus animals. I always loved the giant tower of elephants in Dumbo, so I tried to draw something similar but it ended up just being these two. I really like this one so I'll be looking up some reference pictures and colouring this one properly for sure (:
