Happy Spring (finally)

Happy Easter everyone!  And happy Spring!  I'm so ready for the nicer weather.  I mean, I will miss the scarves and the hats and the hot cocoa and the pretty snow, but I have so much more energy when I'm not struggling to keep my fingers warm. 

I hope you all are enjoying the warm too!!

Here are some of my drawings from this week.  There were quite a few that I liked this time around.  Yay : )

I think part of my problem is that I do a lot of short poses.  And they're great.  But I always seem to mess up the proportions in the short ones.  The longer ones I can draw some grids and things to keep things where they should be.  But the smaller ones I can't really...

Also faces.  And feet.  And hands.  And general rendering...  But it's all getting better, methinks.

Now, if only I could get blogger to arrange these how I like them...

I think this was about an hour

30 second ninja : )

5 min

45-1 hr per figure

Look how itty-bitty my pencils are now!

Drawing-A-Day week 1

So, I want to turn this into a drawing-a-day blog. I have a number friends, and people I admire from afar, have done this, and I think it's a good idea. So, here we are!

Here's week one. For the record I'm super not-happy with the present state of my figure drawing skills. I honestly feel like I became worse while I was in school. So frustrating. But I've been doing daily figure sessions using this awesome online tool I found. These are the more finished of the 30-odd pages I went through this week. They have lots of problems... but they'll get there.

Comments/critiques are welcome and appreciated.

I'm gonna need more paper soon. Yay : )

Warning: Construction Zone!

To anyone out there right now, please note that this page is still under construction! 

I have a lot of drawing samples and whatnot that I'm planning on putting up ASAP.  But there are videos and a link to my demo reel, if you're interested.   

Also, the banner.  I wanted it to be a moving, flash banner, but it hasn't worked out.  All that shows up is this blank white box. I'm still working on it...  but THIS is the swf file for it! I think it's rather lovely. Just needs some cricket sfx and it'll be perfect.

Hope you can see it... So check back soon for more things, and have a good one : )
