first of all thank you so much for coming to tumblr, i love seeing ur art on my dash‘‘‘ its such a treat!!!
secondly, I am curious about the process of creating your artwork? do you have a finished piece in your mind and work towards that
or does the piece just develop while you’re drawing?
(if u dont mind sharing ofc!)
Anyways, I just wanted to say that your art is rlly unique and hauntingly beautiful<333
Thank you for the compliment and thanks for asking!! I’m still exploring in terms of my processes, but I tend to decide almost everything in the rough draft/sketching!
I first do “rough-sketching party”, where I doodle as many ideas as possible:
Then, I pick an idea, and refine them. Often creating multiple versions, with different compositions and different color schemes(not for this one though.) These are WIPS of pieces I’m eventually going to work on:
I kinda often draw too much for my rough drafts, but rough drafts is where I can play around with the concepts/colors/compositions the most, so I don’t feel too regretful in spending a lot of time in this phase. For an illustrator perspective, I see that this is very inefficient, so eventually I hope I find a way to make it faster. But for now, this works best for me to create works that I am satisfied with. With that said, I sometimes make pieces on the go, with only deciding what the main subject is. I might talk about those in the future when I post them. Again, thanks for asking!:)
This is a piece I made a while ago to hype myself up for the upcoming semester.
“Inheriting the Outlier”
Process below(I hope I’m doing this right)
pls post more
Sure!!! I’m just gonna bulk post my entire recent work history(combined with the first post.) I will eventually post these individually with the titles and a bit of context/process explanation if needed(still figuring out what to post here lol) Do people post only completed works here, or is it common to post wips/doodles?
Anyways thanks for asking!
One more day!!! Absolutely recommend this exhibition
My class’s graduation show will open on the 31st, if you’re at RISD please come and take a look! Several new paintings will be shown for the first time ❤️
“Just a Sunny Day”
I’d say this is 95% finished, but I wanted to post it somewhere so I’ll post it here.
Please let me know what you see!!
Heir to the Fallen Temple
Process below!!
By the way, is there any way I can look at my followers’ art besides scrolling through my list?
Deep Sea
Process below(with some explanation(^-^))
For this piece I chose a more whimsical process where all I decided was the placement of the character and some basic compositions, without having anything in mind about what other objects I’m going draw, and what color I’m going to choose. I decided them as I blocked in more random shapes and seeing what they look like, eventually landing on a deep sea theme. It took way too much time but it’s a fun process and allowed me to use composition/colors that I normally wouldn’t use.
Some of my works with monsters
Some character sketches/WIPs
Anyways here is my recent school work
72x 48inches
Will be making one more, bigger drawing then i’m done for the semester:)
