Pancakes

My 3D project for the day, made from the prompt "A plate of pancakes piled high".

Diseased Tree

After my Morning sketches i decided to paint this for some digital art practice.

Prompt for the subject was again from ArtPrompts.

Plush Fox

Another speed model after I received the prompt, "A cuddly stuffed fox".

I am able to do more of these now that my schooling is coming to an end.

Amulet

Today I challenged myself to create an object from the randomly generated idea site artprompts.org.

The prompt that i received was "An amulet with a glowing fire gem".

I want to do more of these in order to improve my workflow, speed as well as texturing skills.

Hand Painted Tree

I've been working on my hand painted texture work I aim to use my knowledge of color to make objects feel connected within a world. I've been caught up with my major assessment at university once its over i will have plenty of time to pursue my goal.

Evil Whispers

I again picked one of my sketches today for some digital art practice. I focused on the use of lighting to direct the viewers attention.

Imperfection

After reading an article about the Bethesda artist Adam Adamowicz i decided that i would post my own sketches to my online portfolio in order to view my own progression and to embrace imperfection.

Here's my Portfolio link if you want to check it out.

Custom Collision Tutorial

Here's a tutorial I made whilest studying at AIE, Our project required accurate collisions, this tutorial was a result of my research.

Subject Contrast

One of my favorite discoveries whilest researching so far is the use of subject contrast.

This is a character sketch through a challenge I set myself of late. I decided to include the use of complementary colors as well as subject matter contrast. The child like objects make the character more vicious and insane.

Color Theory

Here's a color theory sheet that artists may find helpful, i sometimes forget the terms myself.

Warm colors are super effective

Whilest exploring color theory I found that images that use a warm color pallet attract a viewers eye over cool pallets, the color red being the first area of focus. Through research I found that as a species we subconsciously relate the color to danger forcing us to look at it first.

As a personal exersize i analyzed a few images from a google search to see what made the image work and what let them down, this image stood out due to its warm color pallet, all the lines in the image lead to the subject of focus, the Eiffel Tower in which stands in contrast to the sunset.

Fundamentals

I often return to the fundamentals in art no matter how much I feel I've progressed as an artist, these two videos are regulars for me.
