A little bit of fun

Something for fun. Time - 5 hours 


week01_Quick sketch exercise

We were given a challenge to draw a portrait in a couple of minutes, then draw that same portrait but upside down and compare the results. 



I noticed that for the upside-down reference I was looking a lot more at the picture in order to draw, while I tended to look less at the right side up.  I was drawing what I knew and not what I was seeing. I noticed more details of the man's face when it was turned upside-down.

Practise - line work







Commission work for Kingsley Armoury


This past summer I was hired by a local leather work company called Kingsley Armoury to make some illustrations for their new web site.
