Our SVS Virtual Studio JULY💥2019

[burvantill]

I was able to join in on the discord dailies today. I am going to do another Kick in the Creatives sketchbook challenge starting tomorrow. This one will be for a year. I did the month long one and even though I kept at it for the full month it didn’t take and I fell off the sketch wagon. I am not going to try and do complete finished images, just sketches so hopefully it will take. Lol.

@burvantill That's you! Different usename on the discord Now I know!

[burvantill]

@Braden-Hallett . Yeeeeah. I started discord a while back for the express use of communication with my son while playing Minecraft so I used my gamer name . I guess it had other uses I didn’t know about. Lol.

It is still July where I live (for 2 more hours anyways). I have been working on some technical skills this month. I am getting groovy with my figure drawing (at least 15 minutes per day). I am diligently building my ink mark-making reference sketchbook. I have also been exploring the world of digital illustration. It is a whole new, extraordinarily different world, but it's nice to challenge myself.

I have also been taking some SVS courses on the business side of things. Maybe I can start making money on my illustrations soon?!

The posted image is a digital sketch. I think it's a good start, but I have a lot to learn. My husband didn't appreciate the darkness of the subject but sometimes I just want to draw evil creatures and skeleton fish. Other times I draw flowers. Life is about balance, no?

@TessaW Oh! These are wonderful Tessa! Sorry to hear about the loss of one of your sketches to the deeps (pond). Hopefully it was salvageable.

@Braden-Hallett is this how that little guy broke his arms?

[braden H]

@BichonBistro I suppose Dinoriding is a dangerous activity, isn't it?

@JerrySketchyArt very cool

[BichonBistro]

@Chip-Valecek so impressive! There is an artist on IG who attended a mini workshop I took and she has completely renovated her historic rowhouse in pittsburgh. I think you will find it very interesting since you have similar talents: @overthemonstudio (Diane)

@Coreyartus these are great! My favorites are the pig and royal duck family.

@chrisaakins this is fun!

@TessaW @TessaW wow, these are amazing—what class are these for?

[TessaW]

@BichonBistro Thanks! The still life studies are for painting with light and color, and the landscapes are for a landscape sketching class- both at schoolism.

@kadelex Thank you! It was ok, it turned a little blurry, but it's more about the learning experience at this point, so I try not to be too attached to them.
