Process Time

Well finals are over and life is better! here was a layout I did last semester but I decided to paint it now. I wanted to give another process post to show what I do. Hope yall enjoy!

Step One: Rough Perspective perspective is the key to making the space believable


Step Two: Clean line line weight variation is important to create more dynamic depth within a flat line drawing

Step Three: Paint color relations are key to creating a harmonic painting. The colors might not be the exact color compared with natural lighting but to create a emphasis and a mood, the relation between those colors on the page must be correct which will make the painting that much more believable

Gouache is my new best friend...

Well I recently purchased a nice arrangement of gouache paints and have been told they are hard to work with.....I have been having a ball with them!! I really enjoy watercolors but at times I would like to paint a little quicker without being scared of going too dark. I'm working on a group project for a animation short next semester and am in charge up BG's layouts, painting, and color keys. I'm working on some Vis Dev stuff right now. Here are a few of my Gouache studies I have been playing around with the last few days. Enjoy!

Some Plein Air painting

Well here are a few of the watercolor paintings done at Irvine National park ( which I didn't even knew existed) and one from Crystal Cove. I have some more but I need to scan them in in pieces or take a photograph because they are a lil larger. But let me know what you think, (side note: I just purchased a whole gouache setup and will be trying that out coming up so wish me luck I hear it can be tough) Enjoy

SOS BIOLA

Well Hey there folks! I was asked by a very good friend to design a sweatshirt design for their Student Orientation Service also called "S.O.S". So I tried to play on that stranded island SOS theme with a a Shag like style. There might be some difference between the final print and this but I am still playing around with some other ideas. I hope you enjoy!
