Did some sketches of outfits that I would like to wear but do not dare. I like the way this one turned out. It’s done with coloured pencils in my sketch book. She could be a comics character; killing villains in secret by sending them black boxes with poison gas or spiders or something. The dress is far too nice to be given to a bad character….
This started out as a sketch in the recycled series but the dress does not look as if it’s made of old rags at all. So I played around with the background making it into a foreground instead. It’s drawn with pencils and promarker for the skin and some colors of the dress.
Collage is fun. Is see this motive as an alternative madonna with two girls. What’s the fuss with having one boy about anyway?
It started out as a paper collage where I added a cut out drawn arm. Then I added letters and frame digitally.
I’m glad that I spend it doing this… I like type. I like fashion. Why not combine that into an A dress or maybe a pregnant B? So I sketched this up digitally.
I’m going to post this for sale on Etsy. I’ve pencilled and then inked it with Pitts artist pen and Staedtler pigment liner. It’s drawn on a piece of Bristol Graphic Canson 250g/m2 measuring 15 x 21 cm.
I’ve tried to capture the characteristics of the comic. It’s was fun doing. I might do more.
And a detail…
I just love the way these loose sketches turn into cool illustrations. Florian Satzinger’s style is definetly my taste. Looking at his art removes any fear of approaching the paper, on the contrary I can’t wait to start sketching my self. He makes it look so easy. (Hope he wont’ mind me linking his art…)
Check out his blog Paperwalker.
I uploaded one of my sketches as a T-shirt design on Spreadshirt.com. If you click on the image you’ll be linked to the shop.
I know vector design sells better but it’s not that fun to do.
Here’s a close up of the design.
Something has to be first so why not a not so recent sketch.
I like doing fashion illustrations with a twist. In the “Recycled” case the idea is that the clothes are upcycled second hand or just old fashion worn as is. There has to be a couple of flies circling about…
I’m pleased with the pencildrawing and therefore kept it; promarkers and slight use of colored pencils.
Why does a pair have to match? We seldom do in the real life…
