As promised here is a preview of my next collage/mixed media piece...It's coming along nicely and should be completed in the next week or so if my tattoo workload doesn't impede too much...thanks for looking as always, enjoy.
Although I've clearly been slacking on my blogging I've been pretty productive in the studio, here are two more previews of pieces in progress, finish products coming soon!!
Allrighty, let's start with my usual apology for tardiness, busy at work, moving, etc...Without, further ado, here's some of lots of new stuff I'm getting ready to finish up.
So I've been terribly delinquent in updating this bad boy, and finishing the projects I intend to post, so I thought I'd toss up a couple in-progress pieces for now...First is a monkey on board/brown paper, and the second (Below) is a jackalope on h/p watercolor paper. Grahpite on both...stay tuned for finished pics, and a couple more previews soon (or asap)...thanks.
I know I've been terribly delinquent in posting here, I do apologize to those few (possibly) interested parties.
Anywho, here is the progress thus far on my latest. It is of course a pig with a pipe, bow tie, monocle, and top hat. Going for a few layers of contrast here: Realistic pencil shade vs simple line drawing; clean white space vs rough brown, etc...Kinda fun for a tattoo artist this way, similar to the way I work in that medium. Start with a simple black line drawing, then attempt render that in a more nuanced realistic way. Simple, hot press illustration board, HB pencil, torn up brown paper, and Staedtler Pigment liner pens (Awesome!). Anyway, just playing around. Will post some final pics in a few days (I hope) when it's complete.
Getting a little bored with these little ones, working on a good size piece, so look out for that. As for this one...
