Brainstorming Sketches
Working on an illustration to contribute to a local project. The theme is, obviously, about the economic downturn. These are my initial sketches. I may post more later as they develop more substantially, or I may wait until the final design has been published. I know you’re curious, so I’ll just go ahead and answer some of your questions now.
- Yes, that is a line drawing of the back of a car. I think the wheels give it away.
- Yes, the girl’s left hand is huge. She feels self-conscious about it, so…thanks for pointing it out.
- No, that candle is not floating.
- Yes, I realize that by having a “No Right Turn” sign, it makes one assume there is no way to recovery. After sketching this, I thought a “Rough Road” sign might translate better.
- No, that woman has no torso and yes, her arm connects to her ear.
- Yes, the moped dude’s anatomy is loosely based off my mental image of someone I know. No, I won’t tell you who.
- No, that awkward-looking crotch will not make it to the final illustration. Shucks.
- Yes, those are my husband’s legs. But *he* has feet.
Looks like a great start. I didn’t notice all the odd things until you pointed them out. Thanks.
I wish I were on a boat instead of being an ugly model for you.
A boat is as real as it gets.
Your clarifications are hilarious! :)
Miles, if you were on a boat, Holli wouldn’t ever forget.
Cool stuff, Holli. I agree with Tony on the outpointing on your part. Also, that candle is drawn very well (in my rarely humble opinion).
I can’t turn left!
