Drawings of People

Some slightly old drawings of various people taken from sketchbook:

Colourful

These are just experiments with flat colour. I was thinking of printing my comic with colours like these using the Risograph but it was all booked up. I also remembered that I didn't know how to use it.

Anyway, I quite like the images. I think that I will use a similar thing for the accompanying poster/painting thing. Did I mention I'm having an accompanying poster/painting thing? 

Developing Lolo

These pages are generally just trying to develop my Lolo drawings into a form more suitable for comics. The first two spreads show my various notes and whatnot. Is this nice to see or just ugly and messy? Who knows?

Then two single images. The first of which I don't really like at all. It was meant to be her looking in a mirror. Does this come across at all? It was meant to be kind of like a single panel gag comic but without a gag? Anyway, I won't dwell on it any longer. The final image is pretty much the final 'style'. I'm pretty happy with it. Now I just need to get her into some actual comics...

 

More Lolo

A couple more sketchbook paintings. For a while I was thinking of producing all my final images in a sort of minimalist kind of way. But I got bored of that. Anyway, these were just brief forays into that area. I quite like them but they're not really me. You know?

Lolo Ferrari?

Lolo Ferrari! This is who my current project is about. These are just some sketchbook images of her. Sort of pointless but sort of useful all the same. I'm pretty happy with how these ones came out.

I'm Still Alive Actually

I went home in April and had no access to a scanner. Thus the complete lack of work being put up here. Sorry about that everybody!

I'm back in London now though so I thought I'd start things back up with some sketches. These were made a couple of days ago at the May Day protest in Brighton. They are tiny and crude but I think they have a nice liveliness to them. They are basically unrelated to my coursework but I thought I would post them all the same. Basically just a blithe start to the new term.

Tomorrow I will begin adding work from my current project.

 

 

 

 

 

Inky Fun Times

Yeah, so I haven't updated in a while but that's okay because I am updating now! Just a couple drawings. One of which is a self portrait! How unusual! Oh well. Basically trying to work better with ink. It is pretty hard. Worth it though? I figure it is fairly essential to learn. Been looking at some stuff by Ronald Searle. He is quite amazing. This post is feeling kind of staccato. I will stop now.
