Inktober installment 2.

Hi-ho, heres my inktober installment 2 days 6-11. I like these challenges, it sort of takes out the indecision of what you will draw. It takes away some time from my painting though. I think I will be able to show my latest painting at the end of this week, going in for the kill.

Thanks for stopping by,

Bill

The Inktober challenge is here.

Hey people, as some of you might know every October hundreds if not thousands of artist do the Inktober challenge. Every day (there is a different theme everyday) one should draw in ink and post it. Its mainly about practicing and getting better using ink, but mostly its about having fun with the medium. Heres my contribution days 1-5.

See you around,

Bill

Sketchbook post.

What would life be like without my sketchbook, probably a lot more boring.

Figure studies

Hey people, starting another painting. Here’s the charcoal and chalk underdrawing. I do these to improve my skills and try out different techniques. I noticed a big improvement in my paintings and drawing. I still work on fantasy and science fiction paintings, I’m currently working on my first night scene.

Portrait session

I tried to get really cold skin tones on this one. The red of the skin didn’t show in the photo. But I’m still happy with it though.

Auguratricis

Hey people, here’s what I have been working on the last couple of weeks. It sort of just happened, I saw the pose and knew I couldn’t pass it up. The background gave me a few sleepless nights until I figured out what I wanted, but I like how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by and see you soon,

Bill

Trying out my homemade charcoal

Hey people, I made some drawing charcoal on the grill last week and wanted to see how good I could draw with it. One thing I know is that I have to practice this more often and get my charcoal drawing game to level up. I’m still painting during the week though, but can’t show anything yet.

See you next week,

Bill

The Bath-1.

Hi people, here I am trying to perfect my flesh tone again. I’ve been looking at Carvagio, Robert Ferri and a bunch of other baroque painters. I painted the under painting in blue and green this time and got a remarkable realistic kin tones (for me), I’ll be trying this on some portraits in the coming weeks. I’ll also be puting these paintings up for sale on my blog.

See you and stay safe,

Bill

Watercolor sketches.

Something from my sketchbook, playing with watercolors.

See you next week,
