Our SVS Virtual Studio JUNE 🌞 2019
-
This looks fun, so much exciting art on this thread.
I've been working on evolving my style lately, by experimenting with a variety of digital brushes and attempting to bring a rougher and simplified look to my work, less line art and more selling the image with shapes, light and textures. Still learning but hopefully getting better, looking forward to taking some SVS classes to improve. I've always struggled with colour and light and used to be all about just colouring inside my own linework, but am trying to change and improve.

Some studio experimentation with bold colours. (From a group art class run by the local school).

@MattBaker I just love the atmosphere you've created here, the light coming through that tree is beautiful!
-
@MattBaker Awww thanks!
-
@hannahmccaffery Thank you! I realise now that I have some conflict happening with light direction and cast shadows, whoops.

Hi! I'm new here
I've just finished the second variation of an environment concept for this world. Here are two different worlds of a city and a forest that were suddenly mashed up, just united in one single moment. I'm open to any advice

I’m wanting to work up a picture book portfolio and thought I’d do a simple illustration. Or so I thought until I tried drawing eyes on my little pup. Hmmm, that’s what eye patches are for, right? LOL I’ll try to fix it but maybe a pirate costume could be fun and keep the image from being too generic.

@karolifo Haha... thought I replied in the wrong spot, so I deleted it. Allow me to quote my original reply...
"I love the concept and the execution nails it! Beautiful piece!" -
@Daria-Khil It's a truly engaging piece to look at. I enjoy your use of warm and cool colors to push things back and pull things forward. Welcome btw! I'm kinda new here too.

@Braden-Hallett Outstanding stuff! I'm a big fan of all the work that I've seen of yours. Not going to lie, it's super intimidating, but inspirational just the same. I dig seeing your process as well.

@Marc-Noreikas That's really high praise! Thanks
The work on your website looks pretty awesome to me. You should post it on the forums!

Just a simple girl walking her dog. Now on to Godzilla.... that’s a real change of pace...

@Marc-Noreikas thank you! I'm glad you like it

I am trying to understand texture brushes better (using Procreate) and was doodling a character to play around with and this came out. I realized after I was done, however, that another thing I need to work on is understanding shadow shapes better. My shadows are always just generalized blobs.

Tricycles of the future are awesome.

I want to put this dino into some grass but he's hiding in plain sight for the moment. lols I was practising block building structure and then some shading and shadows. He was from my head so I am quite happy.
-
@Heather-Boyd some great form on the dino
I dusted clip studio off the for the first time in a few months. Trying to get away from the digital look. Digital takes longer than I thought...
I'm calling it Day of the Cactus
