Digital. At long last I was able to come up with something more decent painting. I thought that this tech is more of a friendly user, that I disregard totally reading any literature on how to go about it. Sure enough it has put me through a lot of hits and misses. It took me 4 hours to complete this one- phew! (Well, I was able to mow and water my whole lawn in-between. Ha!) I could be better. It's just a start.
Pen. For the nth time I can't seem to win to get myself satisfied over drawing this caricature of Mark Wahlberg from the movie "The Fighter". I keep inventing on how to approach his face in a exaggerated way but still can't seem to keep his likeness-- that I believe is the hardest part of a caricature. I guess I'll try again in the next round.
Black ball point pen. This is the only attempt I did on doing the full body (at the most) in a caricature style. Mostly I constrained my drawings to just doing the head. I know I can't be too comfortable and not have the desire to think out of the box. It's Emily Blunt, by the way.
The sketches above are some that I have piled up over time that I wasn't able to post for a long while, for 2 and a half months, or so. Why the long absense? I don't know, just got tired of posting, I guess. But I was still keeping up with drawing, though I slowed down in some degree. I have been trying to learn digital painting with WACOM intuous3. And somehow I could not get it going. I thought WACOM is that friendly user that I jumped the gun. I was wrong.
