Liahona illustration

Another fun illustration for the "Liahona" and the "Friend." I've done two others since my last post as well, but I'll have to keep looking for my files! I've been busy illustrating and designing. I can't wait until some products I've designed come out to WalMart and Target! Fun! Super busy, but fun. But I always have a good time illustrating for church magazines. I'll have to post all the changes this project went though (making the girl younger and younger, and younger still).

Cameron

Another pencil drawing, this time of a little boy named Cameron. He was showing me a bunch of bugs in the yard outside of my work. And eating pizza. I left that part off his face. He was running around being a boy, flapping his arms, and "getting all the bugs away" for me. I think he saw me bolt when a bee came too close.....

Introducing...

pencil

Another drawing of my friend. For some reason they always scan funny. There's a nice posting by William Whitaker on the concept art forum for anyone interested in a realist approach to painting. Click here for the link.

soft edges

One of my friends was nice enough to model for me, so I thought I'd post a recent drawing. It was done with a .3 HB mechanical pencil. Someone once told me that my drawings had too many hard edges so I've tried to soften it up a little over the years - well, I assume that's what the guy meant. He said they looked like hermetically sealed mayonnaise. I didn't really understand it either, but it's one of the funniest comments I've ever recieved.
