Third Semester Life Drawing Dump

 

Ranging from 30 seconds to Ten minutes, in no order...

Brian Cranston stars in Fixing Good ( Better than Breaking Bad)

 

An inside joke between me and my friend Devin, that became an ongoing joke in my class, eventually leading me to paint this for my friend Charles (a huge Breaking Bad fan)

So over the break I wanted to make something for my lady friend, I went through a few ideas before settling on the coloured portrait (Similar to the Annie Wu style I've been trying out, I though of it when my friend Tara (another great artist) posted a self portrait: http://unintentionallyme.blogspot.com/2011/12/yet-another-self-portrait.html in a similar style

It's just coloured lines, with flats, a shade layer and effects layer for the shine and make up

You can really see the Annie Wu influence when it's just black lines.

This was my original idea, her as a cartoon watching Arrested Development while drinking tea in her pillow filled bed. I didn't frame this or the black and white portrait, but still showed her.  The only reason I didn't keep going with this was I wanted to try something new to me.

And the background on her computer:

These were about 2 mins each, done with a tablet in photoshop

And this was about an hour and a half pose, I've never done this kinda graphic approach with a live model...it was pretty challenging but fun.
