Photo of the printed Sketchnote tote bag design for SXSW Interactive 2009. To read about the design process, read my detailed post on the Rohdesign blog.
First sketch of Julia Kay from JKPP. Blue pen. Rare, very rare the left side of the drawing (eye and mouth). The next better... I hope... ;)
An assigned sketchercise which I sadly abandoned quickly - using the provided building book in tandem with the opportunity to observe the buildings first hand, make a set of Palladio elevation-n-plan pairings. In almost all student sketchbooks these turned out beautifully, and they're a fairly instructive exercise I think....
One of my first drawings with the iPad application "LiveSketch". I love this application. I could not put it down last night.
I sketched this for when I am designing clothes for my girls . . . not that I've had time to sew lately but I'm trying.
This morning I sketched at Gaiety Hollow which is a private house and garden across Mission Street from Bush Pasture Park in Salem, Oregon. I threw everything I had in my bag at this one.
Strathmore 400 Series Watercolor paper 9x12 inches (22.9x30.5 cm), blue watercolor pencil for layout, 1 inch flat brush, and Daniel Smith watercolors, Faber-Castell Gel Sticks, Arteza Real Brush pens, and Dr. Ph. Martin's Pen White ink in a Molotow 2mm empty pump marker.
On the Esplanade, there is an old movie building "Pathé", which is still used to show films
in the context of the European film festival in Montpellier. View of the upper part of the building, with the French national emblem : the gallic rooster.
So « Cocorico ! » (ironical assertion of French patriotism).
This is my first drawing of a rooster, which set in stone, did not move a feather! So much easier to perform than in a farmyard !
Staedler pigment liner 0.2, with several layers of watercolor washes, and addition of hatches, in order to get the rooster fixed on the building and not popping out !
Une étude de portrait d'après photo pour le Sept-Oct Portrait Challenge sur WetCanvas
- Graphite portrait study from photo reference for the Sept-Oct Portrait Challenge on WetCanvas
Today's warm-up sketch is from reference. And while it may seem like a pig to you, I can see lots of things wrong with this sketch.
Why would that be important, because if it looks like a pig that should be enough? Well, perhaps if you just want to indicate an object with a drawing. However, if you want to push the limits of what is obviously a distorted looking image, but still clearly a pig, you need to know what to pay attention to if you're drawing something like a pig.
It is all about intent. What is this object supposed to do in the real world, and why is it shaped this way? After all, as a visual artist you are visualizing ideas. This may be a clear statement, or just a loose thought. In either case, the visual artist should transfer this thought process to paper, make what is internal external. This is why so many of the better visual artists (or artists in general) are also good performers. They know how to communicate.
Thanks to Mssr Tappman, this gentleman has been identified: none other than Louis Rosenblum, the co-developer of the Photon phototypesetter.
