Sneak peek

Here is a sneak peek of some of the images I'm showing at Ms Doody's Art Show the 2nd

Prints and postcards will be for sale as well as the original paintings which will each be sold with an amazing plush model (rendered into spectacular 3 dimensional squishiness by my partner Huong). It's in Adelaide this weekend, so if you are too then come along!

But wait there's more... colour!

Ice Festival version 2.0

My editor commented that the skin was indeed too orange! So here is another version with a more realistic palette and possibly it works better tonally too. As always with colour: less is more... more or less. Something like that anyway.

Feeding in the colour

Ice Festival

The last image in this series of sketches for my Children's Portfolio. I'm just beginning to feed in the colour with this one. I wanted the purple to harmonise with the blue that I did previously as the two images will probably be seen as a spread.

The yellow/orange was then chosen to vibrate off that- it's too saturated to be a realistic skin tone, but for the sake of a stylised illustration I'm hoping it works =).

Addit: I printed this out today and I'm a little bit chuffed to see it in hard copy- it semed to come out ok I think!
