Art Week of 1/10/14

I've decided to start back at the basics. I know how to draw, how to fake my way through at least, and make things look "ok". But my goal isn't to doodle, play, or even be a better "comic book" artist. I want to be a better artist. A reoccurring critique/suggestion I'm seeing on the posts of many less experienced artists (myself included), is to study the fundamentals; "Get the fundamentals down".  There are so many things I know I need to work on, it's kind of hard to know where to start or in what order to practice what. So for the time being I've decided to focus on line, 2 and 3 dimensional shapes, and overall form. Namely I wanna gain a better understanding and confidence with basic shape and line.

This week I've started to focus on accuracy and confidence with line; building speed, endurance, and fluidity. I've been primarily doing this as a warm-up before working on larger sketches; this week being the rough sketches for 'Shazam' and a 'Batman Beyond' piece. I've done several sketches of each, making corrections to the best of my abilities, after receiving suggestions in several forums. Hopefully today I'll finish the final pencils/inks of at least one.

Art week of 1/3/14

So far I think I've started the year off fairly well. A long way to go and I know I can push a lot harder but this is a start none the less. This week in anatomy, I've mostly practiced eyes and a bit of heads. Right now I'm mostly working on building a steady practice. Two rough sketches down  and posted (Shazaam and Batman Beyond), and one I'm still working on (Naruto w/ the Nine tails). Here's to a productive year.

Keep moving forward.
