Some abstract, some creativity.. (?)

This is some of my effort to paint and represent myself on

 canvas. Finding you own style needs to try again and again.
You have to find yourself for once.

Painting Practice

[ Water colours on paper ]
working with glass and how it interacts with light.
I have done these two so far, enjoy :)

Painting practice:

This is some practice for Painting class.
There are many of those little black birds in Aberystwyth. I notice them this morning when I was returning from the Supermarket and I captured with my eyes one of them in a nice picture. A really green grass in a rainy day and this black bird with its bright orangey beak.

 I usually get bored with themes like birds or flowers but, I found its contrast and colour really beautiful to the eye :) Besides it's just for practice. Here it is:

New Illustration: Anatomy

      Homework for Illustration:
Here's the anatomy of the cartoon Meg from Family Guy.
The bones as we learned them, have to fit in the right parts of the body. So here here how maybe bones of Meg would be if she was real : )

Playing with colours, The Sea of Aberystwtyh

The palette. 

                                                                               The Sea

          The palette can be an artwork at itself. The colours you use to paint are there, mixed and pure and, if you see a palette you can certainly guess what the result would be.

Pawel Kuczynski: A brilliant mind.

Pawel Kuczynski

Pawel Kuczynski is a Polish artist that specializes in satirical illustration. Born in 1976 in Szczecin, Poland, he graduated with a graphics degree from the Fine Arts Academy in Poznan.

 Pawel has been focusing on satire since 2004 and has garnered nearly a hundred prizes and distinctions since then.

Much of his artwork deals with serious themes such as poverty, greed, politics and mortality. While his subject matter is stark, his illustrative style is whimsical and cartoonish.
This provides great contrast and makes his work interesting to analyze.

Below you will find a curated selection of Pawel’s brilliant illustrations. 

Illustration: Today's sketch

                           Ryuichi Sakamoto 'The Sheltering Sky

                                                    Today's sketch was about finding the Self

              

Illustration: Learning from life drawing

        First some  30-seconds quick sketches, then a 3 hour sketching of the model. Learned so much that day.
  Start with anatomy. Learning how to relax your muscles, to draw using your arm instead of your wrist, and trying to feel the energy of the model's body. Look at the way she stands as a whole figure, and not precisely at all the details.To understand what her body is telling you. Learn the body language. As I was drawing her, I realize how my mind works and what it does to confuse me when I am trying to convey reality to the paper. As you try to draw every single detail from the beginning of your process, your brain does not look the whole picture and he cannot find the right relation between the parts of the body. ..and somehow you end up with a big-head girl and a paraplegic foot.

  So you have to look at it as a whole picture. Sketch it as a quick figure, with other words, draw your first impression of what you see. You can then focus on the details : )

Mine were more like caricatures.
