Lady pets with ribbons

Happy new year everyone!!

Last year I was asked to design a female shrimp character for a shrimp breeding shop. So I want to show some various sketches and stages of the aquatic pet (I mixed vector outlines with water color as well as digital color)!
Another one with a ribbon would be the lady pug, which was just a quick fun illustration :)

flower power

Since I am working at HandyGames there is very little time for personal projects..I am sorry for my long absence! But recently someone asked me to do flower illustrations and I came up with the idea of japanese ink painting (sumi-e). I mainly copied pictures I found. Was a nice exercise though :-)

and there's also one digital approach, more like a sketch though

color experiment

Since my right arm started aching again a while ago, I was busy keeping it calm while studying animation and art (yes, I watched cartoons and read manga, but with a very observing eye ;D). After a while of non-creating I couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed my water colors and water color sketchbook an experimented a bit with them. Working without a certain shape was perfect, so I couldn't be disappointed too much in my disability. Yet in the end I was drawn back to painting faces...

Votings!

snow white animation - some extremes and breakdowns

snow white, you look pale...

At the end of July I was given the task to design a snow white for a short film project. This collage doesn't contain the final version. I also worked on a psychiatrist, because the film deals with what's AFTER "they lived happily ever after". But in the end we didn't really need a design for him.
The film will enter a Brothers Grimm Competition in the end of august.

good clean-up day

If there are bad hair days, do "good clean-up days" also exist?
It's like my brush strokes magically do exactly, what I want them to. Together with my friends from animation school, we are working on a TOP SECRET short film project! ;-) So the last few days I've been animating and today while working on the clean-up, instead of making hundreds of short lines, I just quickly move my hand a few times and then there it is, a wonderful expressive and accurate line. Maybe it's because of Chris Oately's advise "try to accomplish your work in one stroke in stead of using ten"
