Hi Everyone!
I'm Jon, I'm a Graphic Designer from Devon, UK.
I grew up desperatley wanting to be a concept artist and pursued it through college, but back then I was a little naive to the work that was involved; I thought I could wing it purely on passion alone and skimped out on a lot of the fundamentals. I was young and ended up dropping out of college. Although I enjoy the career path i've made for myself as a Graphic Designer, I've always felt like there's something missing and I always end up coming back to Marc Brunets videos and yearning for the feeling i got when drawing or looking at concept and character art.
I discovered his Art School and decided I'm going to "start again" with drawing. My drawings lack a lot of basic stuff behind them and I find i just end up getting frustrated and unhappy with everything I draw now because of it. So i've starte Art School with a fresh mind and am doing it for myself this time without the necessary pressure of making a job out of it.
I'm pretty busy now with my job and 2 kids, but i feel like i'm building momentum already and am super excited about the journey ahead and meeting other people along the way!
I'm currently waiting for my new pc to arrive so i'm drawing on paper at the moment, here are some scans from the first video on Gesture Drawing:
