I did however paint these black and white portraits of <b>Elvis Presley</b> and <b>David Bowie</b> some of my favourite idols since I was a teenager.<br />

Remember never stop drawing and never stop painting!!!<br />

<br />
I've worked in the kitchen, in the warehouse and the factory and now I'm ready to start doing what I love again. Illustrating! So to start this journey down the rabbit hole so to speak. I'm going to read and illustrate Lewis Carroll's "<i>Alice in Wonderland.</i>" So over the next couple of months I will be posting illustrations as they come up. Along with some commissions for people I'm doing locally. I'm really excited to be back at the desk again with a pen in my hand and image in my mind.<br />

I was reading a book recently called "Hater" by author David Moody. The book itself was amazing but the cover which was done in a Dexter like blood splatter is what caught my attention. Blood splatter artwork suddenly seemed so appropriate for Canada Day. Red and White with a Canadian Leaf as Symbol.<br />

I wandered around with it on Canada Day ofcourse. Pictures of it will be posted as well so stay informed for later.<br />
<br />
Ofcourse the design does represent a deeper meaning as it symbolizes that canda was built on blood and oppression and most of our success as canadians came from our country's ability to help win wars.<br />

Last year I saw the Movie "Exit Through the Gift Shop" and I was inspired to create last year my facebook friends watched over the summer as I followed my CW (the same one who inspired this site) throughout the streets of Brantford placing up Hero propaganda all over the downtown area of Brantford. This year the project has expanded into Hamilton. And CW and wandered recently into underground practice areas to look for inspiration on what the crowd was creating and we were happy to see that not many stencils are being dropped down here in the Hammer. <br />

I find even though CW and I have been dropping down stencils in here for about a year now the other night was pretty much our opening act for the summer as about 60 stencils were placed around the downtown area on garbage cans under bridges and in the general How the F@!# did that get there downtown areas. The answer... Ninja Skills<br />

I had another suit that I had drawn out. I started drawing these suits as a way to justify a reason for a person to have cables and cybernetics attached to them. I have been throwing around this idea in my brain for awhile now and couldn't just not do it anymore.<br />

This image I started by creating a background. I primed my canvas with some watercolour brushes and got to work on the new suit. I like to work in grayscale at first. I'm not actually sure why but I am very comfortable with working in with a full tonal range.</div>

When I after I finished working out the shapes in greys I added colour by placing <i>overlay layers</i> with colours placed over them. I have been experimenting with this and I have been really enjoying my results. <b>Overlay layers allow you to add colour and highlights </b><i>(today's lesson peeps)</i>. I find them to be quite useful. I paint with colours on multiply layers to increase the range of colours. At the end I decided why not just draw out a rough sketch of my logo for fun. :D</div>

I've also decided I am going to do one more mech suit this time only in photoshop without previously drawn reference. And then as a finale I am going to design a desktop background and maybe a t shirt of two of the mech doing battle...</div>

So I found a bunch of old unfinished works this week... basically XD. This first image is an illustration friday post depicting the word Shades. I thought about creating a sunglass advertisement but instead but I also wanted to include a monster of some kind reaching out of the shadows. So I mixed the two ideas together.<br />
<br />
Meet Shades he is just a regular guy with an awesome pair of sunglasses that grant him dominion over his shadow. He is a villain I created for a comic book title I'm working on. But thats enough about that.<br />
I choose to do this image in vector format just for a change of pace. Enjoy :D<br />

And I'm also going to leave you all off with an adventure. My buddies and I go out hiking every once in awhile for inspiration. Running around in the trees and forests and climbing rock faces, and documenting.</div>

I was really excited to paint this landscape as swamps are dark and dreary places, and I hadn't had a chance to create an atmosphere that resembled that darkness in some way. I was also excited while I was painting this when I realized that this image did not have any robots in it.<br />

<br />
This week I started by sketching out a swamp for atmosphere and just went with it. I really wanted to whole image to be done using digital methods so I created another sketch using Sketchbook Express.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXXr2lrWCqLFH319lSuTzsQIVrl64Pg3NqXgNiP9FAzPaXu9Saq8MGAQQ3mrpkIs3EdyGIPj-Dz9xq71PhzLLFMLm7x9p9AyIuAIEY44uo2ZTD4A8i1OH9PCy9odHhYrL8dETdPlxVJcDo/s1600/swampsketch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="169" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXXr2lrWCqLFH319lSuTzsQIVrl64Pg3NqXgNiP9FAzPaXu9Saq8MGAQQ3mrpkIs3EdyGIPj-Dz9xq71PhzLLFMLm7x9p9AyIuAIEY44uo2ZTD4A8i1OH9PCy9odHhYrL8dETdPlxVJcDo/s320/swampsketch.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
This was an awesome warm up using my tablet and I recommend all digital pencils or digital roughs be done in it. As much as I love photoshop it just doesn't provide the same feel as Sketchbook does.<br />

It involves tirelessly making yourself an expert in your field. However tireless this seems it is in fact the opposite, emotional labour is easy is something more tedious than tireless.

This requires vast amounts of attention seeking, and networking. One expert I started following recently that shows a great amount of emotional labour is <a href="http://torvenius.livejournal.com/" target="_blank"><b>Axel Torvenius</b></a>. Torvenius is known online for releasing a speed-painting in photoshop almost everyday. He practices drawing in photoshop and releases his speed-paintings on his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/TORVENIUS?feature=watch" target="_blank">youtube channel.</a><br />

This practice has helped by introducing foreign ideas and views on my work which allow me to constantly develop and evolve my concepts into illustrations. Beside from that the one of my deviantart watchers <a href="http://wezenbeesje.deviantart.com/journal/" target="_blank"><b>Wezenbeesje</b></a> proposed a "Pay it Forward" challenge providing one sketch per person willing to pay it forward 10 more sketches. Immediately after reading the journal entry I signed on board the challenge and started taking names for 10 sketches.</div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

Helping others and allowing others to help you is one of the reasons I love being a graphic designer so much. Even now in almost all of my recent works along with my own views, almost all of it has gone through someone else to fix possible issues I could miss and to have another influence edit any graphical errors. One example of this a recent youtube video I published labeled with fellow Graphic Designer <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/02pinosa" target="_blank">Oz Espinosa</a> Demon vs Clown.</div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

It means spending 3 pages in a sketchbook on thumbnails and then 3 more pages of comprehensive drawings. Its about having the ca-hones to stick out your ideas and share your thoughts. It means caring and sharing your ideas and allowing others to be influenced by you and for you to be influenced by others. It means grabbing attention and developing connections. </div><br />

The idea started with a girl fight boxing game, And of course I was going to label it "Popularity" however the idea changed dramatically throughout the design process. At the local brick and mortar comic book store (BIG B) I came across a Metal Gear Solid art book by Ashley Wood.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Usually I would draw out my background first and blend and paint directly overtop but experimenting with my wacom tablet and the lasso tool I was able to make the background.

Popularity. You get a rather nice illustration.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

This image demonstrated to me that you do not need harsh edges in order to create shapes or silouettes. The use of colour splotches to blend together all the different shapes that build the image are just amazing.

After aliens "grounded" last week I decided to keep with the the sci-fi swag that was still spiraling around me. The word itself "Prepare" gave me inspiration to experiment with my brush setting to allow for many very pleasing techniques. This image in particular began to get some attention.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">After a day or so of practicing new techniques I began the dive into photoshop to begin the battle. Instead of using black and white I decided that since I was working a science fiction piece I could create an intense atmosphere. I then began to set the mood with my environment.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This illustration by Jack Coggins demonstrated to me the kind qualities I wanted to incorporate into my image.

With how I managed to complete the design. This week I am proud to give you all the "Grounded Aliens". This is roughly 6 hours in 4 minutes and 12 seconds...<br />

This blog is mainly based on the basis of concept art, and conceptual illustrations. So after my brainstorm settled I was able to come around with an abstract idea just out of the air...<br />
<div>Like a spaceship crashing into the ground.<br />

So to get myself started I research some inspirational Sci-fi and found it in the work of Jack Coggins.<br />

I've decided to use my own mother as a reference for this. I haven't told her or asked her yet but I'm sure she will be thrilled.<br />
I decided to focus on single mothers. The inspiration for this poster is drawn out from two separate Al Parker Illustrations.<br />
