ARTBURST - Outburst of all things art in my life

[katefomina]

Working on some concept art stuff and here is a little character design with some of my daily facial expressions.

Today’s daily sketch. Had very little time today so it’s a fairly unimaginative one. #sketch #dailysketch #dailydoodle #art #blog #conceptart #digitalsketchbook #work #gamedev #womeningames #womeninanimation #vancouverartist #artistsoninstagram #vancouver_canada (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu7kEMllhbj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=endmgfxl0m9n

Another few sketches from my lunch-time daily sketch sessions. Still working away at these. Trying to get as many done as I can before I graduate to colour and detail.

Life drawing from last week. Again, still feeling so out of practice and struggling even with the materials that used to be my so called ‘comfort zone’. . . #lifedrawing #weeklypractice #drawing #sketching #nude #portrait #model #vancouver_canada #vancouverartist #art #blog https://www.instagram.com/p/BupXyxllQQn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=swe6nn4hub89

I’ve been working on a collection of prints for my shop. Original fluid ink prints and items are available for sale here: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/TillyTales

I've been focusing on painting and concept art lately. Doing some rough sketches, trying to do one per day. I find it hard to always stay on top of my portfolio when working full-time, so I'm making an effort this year to do more and have my portfolio and blog more up to date. Here are a few sketches from last and this week.

Finally got around to doing the other one of these two. A lovely set of two mugs in Rainforest and Olive green with a touch of gold. ☺️💚👌 . . . .

Also here are a couple of final pieces of graphic design for a friends website/blog that I did end of the summer. It’s not my usual work or what I’m used to but I enjoyed playing around with illustrator and making sketches for little infographics.

I have been trying to get back into more traditional media starting this time with inks. It’s a learning process for me, I’ve never worked with inks this way but I’m enjoying doing something new and abstract.

Started fleshing out a title image for a friends blog.

I took on a little side project helping out a friend with their website. Currently sketching out some icons/graphics. Still WIP. #icon #graphicdesign #icondesign #nature #adventure #webdesign #illustration #artistsoninstagram #wip #sketch https://www.instagram.com/p/BnAQbKPBVSh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xl8t0uz2gdxn

Okay, so I did start this a weeks ago but have been really busy so only just managed to finish. #drawinyourstyle the original is by a wonderful artist I follow @ruthhammondillustration. Her illustration is beautiful, full of fascinating characters. #artistsoninstagram #illustration #art #character #draw #inspired #gotcarriedaway https://www.instagram.com/p/Bml_5K0hFF2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cfqwcg4mwa3f

I’ve done a little doodle recently. a little selfie.

A quick little T-shirt print design I did for fun. Someone thought me and my friends were in a band called I-RAD the other day, so I mocked up a Scottish version of our own.

Summer vibes. Feeling in the mood for some shapes and colours.

Had my last day at my (now old) work yesterday. So I did a little happy special travelling cloud. He’s his own little person and on his own little path flying across the world, looking for a new adventure, just like me :)
