20101115-17-city

20101115-17-city, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. Imaginary city. Inspired by some of Pascal Campion‘s art, I wanted to try for a sort of fantastic city. This was a few consecutive BART rides worth of work. Then I got bored and quit adding to it.

20101112-bart-people, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. More people of BART. I like these fairly well. I remember feeling they were somewhat accurate as well.

20101112-bart-person-profile, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. Profile sketch of a person on BART. I remember the angles of this woman’s face were striking. This is a poor rendition.

20101110-P1-artists, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. The two faces on the left are current and former artists where I work. They’re not very good likenesses. The right side is another character art experiment.

20101104-badguy-faces, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. Making up a scary badguy face. Tried to do the same face from different angles. Some worked better than others. I think the one in the top left looks a bit like the Sovereign from The Venture Brothers.

20101102-old-BART-sign, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. The old BART schedule sign from the Ashby station. This has since been replaced with one of the new lights. I was using it as a perspective exercise. I’m not thrilled with how it turned out, but it was good practice.

20100823-BARTpeople, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. I wanted to capture the nature of this lady’s hair. Again, I’m pleased with how it turned out, other than the overly deep shadow in the fold below her collar. Sometimes charcoal doesn’t want to be anything but DARK.

20100806-BARTpeople

20100806-BARTpeople, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. More gesture drawing of people standing on BART. I like the minimalist head on the guy on the top left. All of them to a pretty good job of getting the bearing of the people, so I’m pleased.

20100708-pencil-table

20100708-pencil-table, originally uploaded by DevilCrayon. A new post! This one was drawn while on vacation in Jamaica. I like it rather a lot. It’s not quite right though – the landscape started drifting into the part of the view that was blocked by the door frame that I didn’t get around to filling in. Here […]
