Art Examination
So… it’s been awhile, to say the least. Wow, almost exactly a year. Sorry about that, though there isn’t really any followers to this blog- so not like anyone missed it.
The main reasons to why I haven’t updated this blog in such a long time is that I’ve been very busy with school, graduation, and now work. Secondly because I simply haven’t had anything to update the blog with really.
So- anywho, heres some stuff. Enjoy
- Terra – An abstract concept thing I did just for fun, which turned out pretty well, with my “new” graphitint pencils. They are kinda like watercolors.
- Skull Study – Another thing I did with my graphitint pencils. This one was more like a quick sketch with the pencils, which I then applied water to for added effect. Turned out cool.
- Wings of Dissolution – A school assignment. This is a print from a linoleum carving (google it), so it’s a more complicated installation than it may look.
- The One Truth - Acrylic painting, based on the theme of “truth”- the one truth being the inevitable destruction, ending, death of all and everything.
- The Veil - Oil painting on death, souls and afterlife. The relationships to ones you’ve lost and the power of their never fading touch on your soul.
- Blueberry Box Design – Design for a tea box. It’s blueberry flavored (in case you’re colorblind). Supposed to be a realistic design for a very popular brand of tea, and fit for a modern, “to-day”, application in a market store.
“Iridescent” – Eye Illustration
Here’s my latest creation. I used this as my reference. It’s drawn on a sheet of A5 paper using Derwent Studio Color Pencils. Sadly I did not have that many colors (only 24 to be specific), so I figure I could have made the image better and more vibrant if I had had more hues of each color to pick from. The image itself took somewhere around 2 to 3 hours. The process was first rough sketching to get all the proportions right, then erasing and defining the lines that I wanted. Next I started coloring and whenever I reached some of the linework I erased it out so I could have the color define the shapes instead. I started the coloring with iris of the eye, which was the part that took the longest and was by far the most complex part of the image. And then I just kept moving outwards from the center iris and ending with doing the eyelashes.
