Journey: Ink Wash - Inktober Day 5

JOURNEY
Don't need long legs to travel long distances or live a long life - just a long memory of hope.

Hi!

This is the fifth episode of the perspective series as well as the fifth day for the Inktober Challenge. The official Inktober prompt for the day is 'Long', so...😊😏

In this piece, I have used a simplified version of the inside of a typical train in India. The main focus, as I have been trying to get better at it, is to draw in perspective. Especially human figures.

Materials used are:
  • Fabriano Accademia 120gsm paper
  • Homemade India Ink - I wrote about it here: http://www.rumiandray.com/2017/01/diy-india-ink-permanent-waterproof.html
  • Round Brushes No. 3 and no. 0
  • Parker Quink black ink bottle for the ink wash
  • Brustro Technical pen 0.3 microns

I was feeling a little under the weather today and hope to get better tomorrow so that I can do more artwork quicker and with more finesse.

I do know that no one's really watching these videos but for you three people out there who are watching, thank you. xoxo

Thanks again for watching!

Love...? A Short Bird Animatic

Image
The bird calls of love have its moments ... ... Hi, This is an animatic from an animation short I have been storyboarding at the moment. The birds that you see here are zebra finches and this portion of their interaction in the short was inspired from a YouTube video, that I can't find at the moment, where somebody recorded their birds having a moment just like this. I have a long way to go in studying how to inbetween, choosing colors, understanding backgrounds, and most importantly camera work. Though it's just in the storyboard phase yet, I enjoyed adding so many details just to get the hang of other areas that I need to work on in animation. I used OpenToonz to create this animatic. It has a fairly steep learning curve but for a free open software, it has everything an animator could ask for. I've found it to be the easiest place to do storyboarding. Let me know what you thought of this in the comments below. :) I hope you like it. Thanks again for

Roots: Surrealism in Ink | Inktober Day 20

Image
The roots of heritage are deep. ... ... Hi, Though I'd completed this drawing during the inktober 2017 month, I have been lazy about posting this video. I made this for day 20 of inktober for the official prompt of 'deep'. ... ... It's easy for most of us to be super critical of our work but I am very happy and proud of this piece. The inspiration was a picture of a tree that had been freshly cut down and you could see the rings and the bark cracking and splitting from the impact. ROOTS was also my first attempt at drawing surrealism art. This was drawn on 8x6 cardstock with micron pens. In hindsight, I wish I had done a better job with the composition and lineart. But, I am incredibly proud of the way this artwork turned out. BUY 'ROOTS' ART PRINT HERE (click on the image to go to the product page) I hope you like it. Thanks again for watching! :) xoxo P.S.
