SVS Virtual Studio DECEMBER 2023
-
Happy DECEMBER everyone!
Looking forward to seeing some holiday art! (Or non-holiday art.) Please share your creations and let's support one another.Remember: Don't be shy. Just imagine you have invited all your SVS friends into your studio for a peek at what you're working on. We're all here to admire and encourage. This is NOT a place for critiques. You may applaud, encourage, ooh and ah, only. Relentless kindness.

Let me start it off right. Happy Holidays everyone, whatever it is you celebrate! I did this on my flight to Arizona

@Larue he looks so soft and plushy 🥰

This one started as a prompt from Anthony Wheeler's Twitch stream, and turned into a potential full book about a creature known as the Lumberjackalope.

Hi guys, I hope everyone is having a really great festive season. It's been a very challenging month for my family, and as a result I've not been at the drawing table much since the beginning of November. But as things settle down a bit, I've started working on some stuff. This is a work in progress of a painting I'm doing of The Luggage from Terry Pratchett's Discworld books. For 2024 I'm planning to double down on my fantasy illustrations, as I think I was starting to spread myself too thin by trying to do EVERY type of artwork.

This is a rough composition sketch I'm working on for my first book dummy (text goes in the blank area at the top).
Hopefully you can tell that it's a birds-eye view of an Indian marketplace.
I've still got to work on the character design for the woman and the cow, who are main characters in the story.

Filling the last page of my sketchbook at a rather chilly café in Glastonbury. The woman on the left with the glasses was very loud and had a vocabulary consisting mainly of swearwords, but the guy with the plait in his beard was having an interesting conversation about Japan.
I think I should go to cafés with worse acoustics from now on.

I'm participating in a monthly challenge with friends on Instagram. Here's an endangered bird : a Bali Starling. It was a timed drawing, but I quite liked drawing him, using negative space.

@Robyn-Hepburn Eavesdropping and drawing is definitely one of my favourite activities. Crossed conversations are so funny, aren't they ? I am currently going quite often to the same cafe at the same time of the day just to get a chance to "catch up" on a local group of retired people and they crack me up ! Plus, the ladies often wear hats, so they're good practice.

This is very lovely @Robyn-Hepburn. I can’t believe the lady was swearing with a kid at the table!
This looks like a full spread in a Picturebook! Well done ensuring nothing was lost in the gutter.

Hi @Adam-Thornton-0 , looking good! I can tell it’s top down view; however, I’m sure the colors and rendering will highlight that bits an Indian market place.

@Julie
i would love to see their sketch -
@Julie Haha! That's a brilliant idea. I do know of a café nearby that's frequented by retired folk - I do hope they wear hats!
I love your negative-space bird. Timed drawings are great, hey? Especially together with other people.
