Party

This is a still life of the home studio I’ve kept recently. It draws partially from real life and partially from symbolism, fantasy, and narrative.

Inspiration of the Day

Is there anatomy you should brush up on? Does browny orange and turquoise surprise you as a colour combination? What about the texture of the rocks? Challenge yourself!

After receiving a lot of notes of concern, I wanted to clarify that the last week or so being absolutely miserable is not directly related to my wrist pain. Though, being a cripple is by no means helping me feel better about things. Generally things aren’t getting all that much better, but they also are not getting worse. So while things are pretty shitty, it is by no means the bleak apocalypse I was bracing for last week.

I spent a little time over the last few days working on this illustration. More than anything, it was test for myself to see how bad my wrist had actually gotten since it had been a few weeks since I had drawn using a brush and ink. And while it took a bit of time getting used to, I am pretty pleased with the results. Since moving my wrist hurts like an absolute motherfucker, I had to rely more so on using the side of the brush and in turn using bigger motions and gestures while pivoting from my elbow. It created this nice loose textural feel that I think contrasts nicely with my normal tight grouping of detailed lines.

It’s kind of amazing for me to look back at illustrations I did just a few years ago (like this), and compare them to how I am working now. The biggest change obviously being the lack of complexity in how I use color now. I think I struggled for a long time with trying to show shape and depth in color, when really what I needed to do was rely on my actual drawing skills to do those things.

On a side note, yesterday I posted from Instagram to my Facebook fan page (because I have yet to figure out how to directly post to this Tumblr, considering it is not in fact the default blog attached to my Tumblr account). And from that I got a lot of people trying to follow me on Instagram. Unfortunately though, the vast majority of people attempting to follow me on there are going to be ignored due to the fact that I am for the most part keeping Instagram private. And anyway, who wants to see me take pictures of the same goddamned apartment day after day after day?
