Style Study 01 : Finding Nemo

      Lately I have been feeling rather sulky about my cruddy style and bad art that I've been neglecting, so I decided to start studying some of my favorite styles from my favorite movies and shows. First on my list was Finding Nemo, because the faces and expressions are incredible. It is interesting to work with limited body language, and body language and expressions that change with the specific character and species, as opposed to humans, who have the same body parts that work in the same basic way.

When I decide that I am "Done" with a style, is when I can draw most, if not all, of the main characters accurately without reference.

As you can see, I've pretty much gotten Crush, Tad, Pearl, and Nemo (mostly)down. Dory is almost there.

Marlin... however...

Finding Inner Peace

This is my painting. It looks much better in person, just to inform you of that matter. I had but the slightest clue as to what this painting would be, and after I had painted it, it made me think of Horton Hears A Who. But then, as I further analyzed what I created, the blue... sun? in the center, seemed calm to me against the chaotic and colorful jungle surrounding it, and then I immediately thought that my Little Blue Elephant, was searching for a part of himself, finding the center calm of spirituality deep within the crazy and hectic and infuriating and beautiful madness. Could you possibly think of us, looking at this painting? I do. I think that it represents the chaos that we are submerged in and thrust into in our modern world, most of us are searching for something that is a hidden part of us, whether it being a part of our identity or searching for spiritual contentment. It's a shame, really, the fact of how much chaos there is. Visual, sound... It's sad, how most people rush from one thing to the next, it's just I mad race to get to the end of the day. So I leave you for now, with one last thought,  slow down, enjoy the little things, and stop and smell the roses, things go by fast enough as it is, without our prodding them along.

Candy Cane Orb

Drawing these, I don't know what, is always fun for me as I never know what they will end up looking like until the are done! I like this one. Due to the coloring it sometimes reminds me of the festive holidays (candy canes), and other times it makes me think of shells, due to some structures within my... orb, and if you look at it from a distance it looks like some sort of flower. The first time I drew these, whatever they are called, was at camp. On my hands. Bad, Monet, bad. No drawing on yourself.
