A few more illustration sketches. All three are mixed media and all three are examples of myself experimenting with new media and styles.

Fashion Illustration – 2
3 new sketches done in pastel. I’m really enjoying doing these fashion illustrations. I have no experience in how fabric is cut etc, so I doubt these garments are practical, but that is not the point. I am taking my knowledge of life drawing and medical illustrations and trying something new. I will post up some other sketches soon.
Fashion Illustration
In my spare time I have being experimenting with Fashion Illustration. I am finding this very creative and have been attempting different things and experimenting with different media. Pens, markers, ink, charcoal, pastels, oil pastels and water colours are some of the materials I have been using. Theses 2 sketches were created using pastel.
Fashion Illustration is new for me and I am finding it very enjoyable. I never knew it could be so expressive and experimental. Expect a load of more sketches to be posted up here soon.
Wrong Anatomy 2
Here is a second sketch where I have messed about with the anatomy.
The sketch is based on a photograph by Henri Cartier-Bresson.
Polaroid Picture Illustration – 8
This may well be the last image in the Polaroid Picture Illustration Series, however it may not be the end of the project. I think I’ll create a flash based photo gallery and put it up on my portfolio. That is of course if I have enough time. I’ve not used Flash in a while so it might be a good idea to get reacquainted with the software and put it to good use.
Anyway this image carries on the theme of creating an image, similar to that taken with a Polaroid camera. The text below is a short poem like phrase that I believe balances the image.

A third set of foreshortened sketches. Definitely the worst images in the set. I should hopefully have more sketches that practice foreshortening in the future.
Wrong Anatomy
I’ve put up lost of anatomy sketches here. My day job involves anatomy illustration, but I do life drawing classes in my spare time. I’ve started doing some sketches where the anatomy is wrong – hands in the wrong places and incorrect ligaments. This is just to try something different. The first sketch is below, but I plan to post up more in the future. The subject has her arm in the wrong place. The image itself is based on a Toulouse Lautrec sketch.
