blue blood and liquid gold: new illustration
http://bluebloodandliquidgold.blogspot.com/2008/03/new-illustration.html
I haven't doodled as much as I should have this week but it was a crazy one. I did sit down for a moment with my sister to watch an episode of Scrubs and scketched. A few things for fun. The initial sketch done in pen. *. A few layers of Prismacolor. I realized that most of my Prismacolor. I'm truly obsessed with it. It's a milk-based paint that dries to the most perfect velvety matte finish and shows no brushmarks. It's kind of like gouache. But much easier to handle. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

blue blood and liquid gold: sketches for project
http://bluebloodandliquidgold.blogspot.com/2008/02/sketches-for-project.html
I started thinking about my E-Moticos Project that's due on Friday this afternoon while Bill Deere was talking for forever. Still gathering ideas. Feel like I should watch Ray Johnson. These are some sketches of banner ideas for the mass weekly e-mail that I will be sending out to people that are based on interesting and weird events happening all over the world. It shall be a weekly illustrated thing. For lack of better wording. Ps if you're not seeing the pic, switch browsers. View my complete profile.

blue blood and liquid gold: work in progress - book cover
http://bluebloodandliquidgold.blogspot.com/2008/02/work-in-progress-book-cover.html
Work in progress - book cover. The illustration that I am working on now is for the book. By John David Morley. The assignment was to create two book covers, one that relies on image and another one that's type-dominant. The first step was brain-storming about the concept of the image. I decided to illustrate the novel's main characters as I imagined them, riding freely on their bikes through the antique streets and squares of Amsterdam. Updates of coloring is to come in the following week. Labels: work ...

blue blood and liquid gold: poster illustration progress

Click on image to view large. So my leaping guy now has some color and i am adding some shadows and highlights in the buildings. Was thinking about adding his own shadow on the buildings but I feel he's too high up in the sky for that to look 'real'. This isn't the final color palette which gives me a bit of anxiety. I've got more than 10 colors in there already and I have no idea how I'm going to simplify it down to just 4. I just don't like simple. I like complex and detailed. May 11, 2008 at 6:31 PM.

blue blood and liquid gold: February 2008
http://bluebloodandliquidgold.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
I haven't had a chance to update recently, but while rummaging through some old photo hosting sites, I was able to dig up an drawing I did that I really loved and spent a lot of time on. Thankfully, I recorded the process of it because it does make me very happy to see it. It was Art-Nouveau inspired. Done on vellum in graphite, watercolor, and Prismacolor markers. The initial photographed sketch. My fabulous illustration table. Messy. Ok, finally done! Stay tuned for my next illustration of one of my fa...
