          Hi all,
          I'm new here and a little nervous about posting. I just finished up a class on imagining things in perspective and it was so very helpful. Lately, I've been creating quick little illustrations to both practice perspective and working digitally:

            Hello! This is month I am going to be trying to simplify and focus on design and composition. I have a really hard time focusing on one style of illustration because there are so many people I admire out there, and most of them are doing vastly different things. I have been working through "Creative Compositions" and it has been super helpful- I can't wait to see how I am able to implement the things I have been learning into more drawings.

            I am also trying to work through characters, which is naturally a weak spot for me, but is becoming more enjoyable as I try to simplify!

            Love seeing what everyone is doing here.

              I think I am abandoning the attached wings so I can get clearer poses

                    I’ve been doing little ink and watercolor sketches and tried a pencil and watercolor sketch to compare the styles. Still not sure which I like better (the first one is ink and the second is pencil) and I’m not sure I’m even using the best pencil for this style. For those who do their final line work in traditional pencil, what pencil do you use? This was a 4B.

                      I'm changing my process to move sketching later instead of earlier.

                        @Braden-Hallett what do you mean? Less linework and more blocking in silhouettes first? This is a pretty cool image btw. Chunky with form!

                          @Coley I mean both blocking in silhouettes, value AND colour before starting to sketch 🙂

                                      I redid the color of the light etc on my doggie that I did for painting color an light class. More bluish so maybe perhaps more nighttimish looking. I unfortunately saved at low image tho so it\s a bit pixely. poo on that

                                          @Katie-Kordesh Welcome to SVS! Your work looks great 🙂 That is very clever, detaching the wings and adding arms. Nice!
