Black & White & Colour

I just wanted to test out something quickly. Greyscaling a drawing and then keep select bits colours to make it really stand out. I'm not sure if it worked too well in this piece. I should have made the lips a brighter red.

Violinists

This took a bit longer than I had planned 'cause I, unfortunately, got a bit lazy and sidetracked a bit working on it, but I liked how it turned out. I stuck with a simple colour scheme and in truth, there is only 3 major colours in the piece: blue, red and green (which are the 3 primary colours in lights). Well onward to the next piece. More musical fun awaits.

Music - Violins

I think this started a long time ago with a small sketch in a sketchbook somewhere. I could never figure out how to draw hands holding a violin since the position is a bit odd and hands are just hard to draw, at least to me. Stylizing it solved a lot of problems and I liked how the pose turned out. It's a "line" piece of illustration in that the lines really help make up the illustration.

Ski Break

So here's another working on illustration. I'm enjoying these "widescreen" views lately. I should get set to do a rainy scene for the upcoming spring.

Vespa

I'm almost finished this piece. I'm liking the night mood. It's fun and there's something serene about going for a ride in the night all alone regardless of wherever you're going.

Music

Both illustration is roughly the same in the scenes. The second one was a rough sketch that I liked too much to not take to a finish though it's feeling a bit bare at the moment. I've got one more illustration planned that I hopefully won't take too long with.

a comfy chair

"Comfy" is an odd word 'cause it always looks wrong to me even when it's spelt right. Anyway, this is the pose I wanted to do. The rough overlayed over the illustration really does cover up a lot of the subtle gradients I'm working with.
