Caricatures

I haven't posted anything this month yet... so I am dumping a bunch of caricatures from my sketchbooks here from the past month.
Some blue pencil sketches...
Doodled the one above drunk at a bar with pen...
My sister and my mom both graduated over the past month...
This last one is the most recent, and I was trying to use watercolor.

One Hour Paintings

Last Thursday, I wanted to try something different...
So, I went back to my roots and painted some impressionism!
This was about an hour and a halves worth of work.
Then it hit me... maybe I could try to give myself a challenge and do timed paintings for a week!

I really enjoyed doing this, so I may continue to keep painting... we'll see!
I actually did TWO paintings this day of the same spot. The first was really early, about 6 AM.

Around 2 PM, I decided to do another one… it was lightly drizzling… so i figured, “why not.” But, I only got 15 minutes in before the downpour hit me though.

I noticed it dried and thought it was cool how the rain altered the painting.
All of these were one hour sessions only, aside from the rained on painting (which was 15 minutes) and this very last one.

The last was only 43 minutes because I got off work late… and it got really dark outside!

I could not see anymore!

(Cont')

Some doodles I found in my sketchbook of the outlaw...
Here I was experimenting with editing photography I shot... not sure if this was entirely successful or not.

Sketchbook Post

So I haven't posted much this month and I don't want you to think I haven't been doing anything!
I decided to do a quick post, while I'm out of town, with images of doodles and such I've done over the past month or so in my sketchbook.

Hope you enjoy! :P

The first batch is a bunch of caricatures with mainly markers.
This one is a quick self portrait using acrylic as well...
This one wasn't really or caricature... or the one below...
Used pastels on this one...
Drew some co-workers from memory...

And below some random doodles...
Last... some Pokemon I drew.

Setting up Stop Motion Studio Space

 I just recently bought a Canon EOS T2i Rebel, so I could start animating in stop motion again!
I'm slowly building up the equipment I would need to produce professional quality stop motion from home!
I decided to break in my new camera with a quick test lip sync with an older puppet I built over the summer... you might remember him! ;)
I rushed into this, but it's been awhile anyway... so I'm a tad rusty!

I'm just glad I can produce more content now! :)

More Outlaw Art

 I was trying to sketch in marker more. Watercolor/Marker.
This is another concept piece for my outlaw project. Considering the main character is an outlaw, he faces challenges against ordinary townspeople as well, This shot is suppose to be a part of a sequence where they are trying to jump the outlaw at the bar, while he is enjoying a drink.

I did something different with this process so far as well… I actually started it out digitally, but my computer kept overheating… so I actually printed out the line art with a pretty low opacity, and inked it traditionally (the characters at least…). I then scanned it back into the computer, and finished it back in Photoshop…
