Welcome!

This is the place where I'll be posting bits and pieces from here and there (the creative scraps and incomplete works), hopefully documenting my creative journey of self improvement!

Speed Painting #05 - Freckles

Yet another speed painting. Had fun with the freckles. This one was a bit sloppy and rushed though, but it was still a fun process.

Speed Painting #04 - Blue Eyes

Another speed painting portrait. Lots of fun. Great way to wind-down after a few busy weeks. Drawing therapy.

Speed Painting #03 - Brie

This was a speed painting I did one evening based on the actress Brie Larson.

Skate For Your Life (Digital Painting)

This was a little something that I did back in March. Someone asked me to draw them on ice-skates fleeing from a polar bear that was cut in half by a crazy colleague wielding a chainsaw. I didn't ask questions... :P

Reference Study #13

So I've recently been going through a bit of a "French phase" - listening to French music, watching French movies and movies set in France. I watched Amelie for the first time and just had to draw the lead actress Audrey Tautou. So I did. 
Et voilà!

Speed Painting #02

Another speed painting. This time partly based on a friend's dream and a strange thought of my own. So my friend was telling me about how she had dreamt about a cat that could fly by spinning its tail and also looked a little like a hamster, or guinea-pig (which she later told me wasn't necessarily the case - but I thought it was still a fun detail, so kept it anyway). During the course of our conversation or perhaps rather on another occasion, the discussion of fish came up and well, long story short, I had the thought of a fish with a more defined neck. Anyway, I decided that I would combine the two creature concepts together in this image.

Painting Time: Approx. 4 hrs
