Wow, this summer heat’s made me Lazy (that’s right, there’s a capital there) and work’s left me a little uninspired. Made up pretty quick with my old friend the notebook, however, and had some fun with this week’s them of “Double”.
Originally, I was going to try and go for something much more serious and realistic, but I’ve been inspired lately by illustrators who are very loose, where things like inaccurate perspective aren’t awkward mistakes but charming, calculated style choices. I’m not sure I actually hit “charming” with this one, but I like how the overall tone of the drawing came out. And, at the risk of sounding shallow, it IS pretty fulfilling how *quickly* an entire page can fill out when you’re not sweating the details.
There, I said it.
Awesome! I love that you show all your drawings and roughs with your final work. It really helps to appreciate the final outcome
Inspiring, fun illustration! They should all be that way – Let the good times “roll!” ;o)
I love this!! What a great color palette and such a charming scene!
This is great, I love your work
Thank you!
Thanks all for the very nice feedback, it’s very much appreciated!
Less sweat, that’s what I say. I love it.
I like the concept, style and colors. I like that style too.
Fantastic! ^^
I nominate you to submit something to this: http://www.printmag.com/article/hand-drawn/?r=imprint
I thought I’d commented on this while on vacation but it seems I was hallucinating. Love it. My only comment would be I think you could push the colors a little more, but mostly: Love. Your linework and composition is getting really sophisticated.
