Hey fellas!
Before I start, ima quickly introduce myself.
My name's Julius, I'm an illustration student from Germany, 20 years old. I recently decided to go international with my attempts of drawing and painting, since I've only been showing it in a german community before. So here I am.
Let's get started. I will show some stuff of the past weeks to give you guys an impression and then follow up with 'almost' daily updates.
A selfie:
Some speedpaintings (slowly getting better at these)
Two quick studies. 30 minutes for one on the left, about 50 for the right one. Studies are definitely my comfort zone...
A current WIP for school.
So, that's it for now. Ima post the stuff of today later on. Critics and all kind of comments are more than welcome!
Cheerio!
At the moment I'm very much into figure drawing and anatomy, since my drawing skills are far behind my painting skills (I feel like I have to explain this with another sentence. What I mean is, that I believe that my knowledge of how light works on surface is much better than my knowledge of how forms behave in space following proper perspective. I hope that fixing this issue, by learning how to draw figures, which involves the understanding of perspective will push me to a new level. I don't know if this makes alot of sense, but its just the feeling I have at the moment.)
So untill my Hampton book arrives (shipping from the US :/ ) I do daily figure and gesture drawing and general perspective drawings. Yet I'm a bit lazy at scanning, so you won't see too much of those gestures. But I will get my lazy ass up when beginning with Hampton. Promise!
So, long story short, here comes the stuff of today:
Started this one with a reference, after about 10 minutes I proceeded to render it out from imagination.
This is a crappy speedy I did while listening to the beautiful voices of Miles Johnston und Dan Warren discussing about artzy stuff. Really nice stream you guys! Thanks!
And an emerald study, due to the CHOW, won't be able to finish anything till sunday though. But the topic really baits me into doing something even after the deadline.
