Gorge Town 3 -WIP

One of the pieces I am currently working on. Trying out a new app called MyPaint. Seems to be an excellent art app with multitude of uses. Watch this space.

A nice spring day -gardening but needed a break. Had a fiddle on tablet as pc was on. Good practice.

BST logo

Final draught for BST logo. Time for tweaking as required.

Nameplate

Just finished a nameplate. Unfortunately, the use of metallic paints on outlining and an overglaze made a decent photograph impossible. In reality only the outline appears when looking straight on with a faint gold halo around the letters. Seen from an angle shows bright gold metallics on matt lettering.

I was having a cup of tea and scribbling in my pocket book. A quick biro mech with highlighter for colour (it was on the table). Definately need to do that more often in idle moments. The only danger now is if I run the image through paint.net . . . and get carried away, again!

It's been I while since I last posted . . . lot's happened. However, welcome to my new followers, spread the word :)

A fair bit of new work in rough form, sketches, WIP or my brain. One of them is a logo for a music business owner: rough sketch to rendered versions as I look at colour variations based on an extremely loose brief.

Left: fiddling with pencils on first sketch. Right: current version need tidying up, bit of shadow, dodge 'n burn here 'n there.

Exploring colour variations at different stages.

Thanks for looking.

Happy and Prosperous New Year -lots of finished art and new pieces coming :)
