Developing Illustration

August 10, 2011June 8, 2015StevenLeave a comment

I’ve pretty much been on holiday for the past week or so. I’ve been to see a few things at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and I done a Summer School class at the Edinburgh College of Art – Developing Illustration.
I undertook a project where I drew 6 images inspired by a Poem – The Fog by FR McCreary. I’ll post up the images later. The weeks was excellent, where most of the time was spent trying new techniques and experimenting to bring out the story of the poem.
Here is one of the images I created.

Live – 4

Here is the fourth image in the Live Illustration project. It has been created to look like a Polaroid Picture. I am currently created a Flash presentation to display the Live images. I plan to create 5 images in total and present them on my portfolio website.
The image was taken in Cellardyke Town Hall during the Fence Records Homegame Festival in May 2011. The artist is the fantastic James Yorkston.

Life drawing and anatomy sketches 5

Here’s some anatomy sketches of hands. I’ve been practicing drawing hands. Hands can be hard to draw and I didn’t want to continue drawing characters with their hands behind their backs.

Another recent Illustration. It’s a clown with a little poem as text.

Here’s an image I created recently. Thought I’d take a break form life drawing and anatomy and create something different. The text carries on from the text form the Polaroid Pictures. Little poems to counter balance the image.

I have just added these to my portfolio website. Thought they might look good on the blog as well.

Live- 3

The third image in the Live Project. It looks a bit like a Polaroid picture. I’ve decided to combine these two projects for a couple of images.
Live – live music Illustrations.
Polaroid Pictures – Illustrations to look like Polaroid pictures.
This image is a combination of the two.

The image is of Rachel Sermanni and was taken at the Fence Records HomeGame Festival in Anstruther in Fife back in May.

Polaroid Picture Illustration – 3

The third Polaroid Picture illustration and with this one I thought I’d do something a bit different. I’m getting sick of drawing people so I thought I squirrel might be nice. This has gone up on my portfolio as well as being posted here. The next one will be posted in a few weeks.
At the moment I’ve pretty much got 2 ideas on the go. The Polaroid Pictures and the Live music Illustrations. I plan to create a flash based presentation/website for each of these projects and post them on my portfolio.

Live- 2

Another Picture for the Live Project. This is where I am illustrating images from a live music setting – mainly from photos taken from Fence Records HomeGame Festival. This illustration is of The Pictish Trail.
I am looking to create 5 or 6 images here (maybe more – depending on time) and then present them in my portfolio in a Flash based presentation.
This is the second image.
