Drowning

23rd May 2013

Made this gesture of a guy drowning a long time back. I composed the gesture into a background and left it unfinished (like so many other concepts). I was backing up some data today and found the unfinished work and decided to finish it because I was feeling all creative and emotional! ;) Of course I wish I had drawn a better pose or done something better with his arms. >_< Enjoy and critiques are encouraged.

Day 10 - Run Lola Run Boards

23rd Dec '11

I can almost feel time slipping by. I can' do anything but apologise to you, blog. Project JH went straight downhill since my jury and it's really hard to work here at home. So I've been doodling, but they're not PJH-worthy. So here's the latest. Practiced storyboarding the first few minutes of Run Lola Run..

She stood in the Doorway

This was my third entry for sketchoholic's 'sweet silhouttes'. The thumbnail looked better than this, and I was hoping I'd make a good job with the colour. Colour is still very difficult for me. Luckily in the silhoutte contest there was less to think about thanks to the majority of the space being dark.

Monster in the mountains

This was my second entry for sketchoholic's 'sweet silhouttes'. Again, I leanrt a lot of staging. I practiced more colour on this that the other two, but this one looks least appealing in terms of colour. The thumbnail looked way better.

Drenched alone

This was my first sketchoholic for the contest 'Sweet Silhouttes'. Luckily Tanu reminded me that the deadline was today and I managed to churn out 3 pretty decent illustrations in 7 hours! Well here they are. This is the first piece.

I learnt a lot about staging and color thanks to the amazing - Hans Bacher. He's my god. The god of visual development. I am stunned and motivated by his work in Dream Worlds, his book.

A friend of mine said this entry reminds him of Charlie Chaplin, the rain and all.. The hat, the umbrella. So I'll end this with his quote -
“I always like walking in the rain, so no one can see me crying.”
