Our SVS Virtual Studio JUNE 🌞 2019

Jon Anderson

I was working on a mouse illustration for what I want to become a portfolio piece but got hung up on the value study and realized I haven’t had fun with drawing or painting for while. So I decided to put that on hold and explore a different rendering style (admittedly I’ve been way too inconsistent in my rendering) and do fan art again. This was fun and I decided to do the other three turtles in a series for Instagram. Still undecided on whether to include them all on the same post or separately.

@Jon-Anderson that's really awesome. Looking forward to seeing the others. I would post them separately and then all together when you are done.

Finally got this finished, thank god! I really struggled with getting the lighting right on this, I wanted it to look like it was later in the day so the sun was low. I know it can really be improved as I'm not 100% happy with it, but I think I need to move on to something else now or I'll go crazy!!! Finished not perfect right?

More shapes but with wash/colour. I have always struggled with shading yellow shadows since its value is so light. Here I've tried warm saturation, warm mixes with orange, cool mixes with green and a combination.

@NelsonYiap This looks like such great practice. Are you doing this along with a class you're taking on SVSLearn, by any chance?

@animatosoor Hello Jake Parker's Light and Shadow, but I was inspired to shade 3D objects from Will's The Magic of Color!

@hannahmccaffery Beautiful piece! I really love your colour choices.

@hannahmccaffery I think this looks great and I especially love your textures. I'm still trying to figure out the best method of putting texture in. Did you use textures brushes or texture overlays for this?

The puffins are so much fun!

Very nice, it is looking great.
I love the perspective.

@demotlj Thank you Laurie! I used texture brushes, the Kyle Webster ones you can get with CC now, they're really great and too many to choose from!
I'm still experimenting with applying texture as it's something I've struggled with too.

Found a bit of work coloring comics for indie creators lately been fun.

Playing around with ink and watercolor. I need to get a better camera so that the white balance works out better when photographing traditional art but that will Have to stay on my wish list for now.
