Frazetta Study (wip)

A Frazetta study I’m currently working on side-by-side with the original.

The character’s right arm/pec area was done by my teacher to provide some help.

Ink Studies

Here’s the finished Joseph Clement Coll ink study that I started last week. I was able to find another 20 minutes and finish up her skirt and shoes. The entire piece was inked with a crow quill. Below that you’ll find a new Bernie Wrightson study that I started in class last night, except this time the entire thing is being inked with a brush, no quill allowed.

Again, very helpful in these were the penciled outlines provided by my teacher, which are still visible in the unfinished portions of both pieces.

This is my first time drawing with a tablet. This took me way to long for how much better the drawing could be.

Phuc is his name. He was the star of a comic I used to draw regularly a few years back at UC Santa Barbara.


Hmm, I think I need more practice/study of lighting and forms of the human head. Exercises like this one are great for noticing things about your work that you can improve upon! Yay learning!

Recent things!

Wow! These are things that I drew!

First up, my favorite drawing from winter break:

Next up, some ballpoint pen sketches/studies of Frazetta and I think two other artists.

Finally, an unfinished ink study of a drawing by Joseph Clement Coll. He is amazing! I could seriously do this kind of stuff ALL DAY for no good reason other than to want to be more like my new buddy J.C.C.

The outline was pre-printed onto some board provided by the teacher so that we had some kind of starting point instead of a starting with blank paper like he does when he demos for us.
