Shayola - Art School Journey

I just realised I forgot to post here this emergency Term 1 pose challenge thing, so I'm doing it now

And I did some 45 second gestures but in a different style now, I actually really like a few of them

I really hope I can finish my building in a few days and can finally move on to term 2

Very nice 1 point perspective

@alwaysneedsleep Aw thank you!

Finished my 2-point perspective building assignment! It's not perfect but i'm satisfied with it for now I might revisit this assignment in the future because I feel like I could use some more practise

And meanwhile working on this I also did a 1 hour sketchy thing for a friend:

This sketch is fantastic but I absolutely love your perspective work. It's just so juicy! I love it!

@Lockenheim @000_peanut @soft.raincloud777 aaah thank you so much for your kind words!! It means a lot!

While I was away from my computer I tried to watch the Term 2 videos and take some notes/sketches:

(I still want to practise these things in digital too)

And I did a few face studies traditionally:

Just found your thread, You did a great job on all of these congrats
can't wait to see the next drawings!

Lockenheim 2022-04-23 12:21:35 UTC #41

Very nice work! Really fantastic job portraying these emotions, they read really well! I am quite worried about tackling facial expressions myself I will have to reference these. Great job. Keep it up!

Hi Lady Shayola..!!
Hope you're doing fine.. Looking forward to your next post..

alwaysneedsleep 2022-05-08 06:09:48 UTC #43

You have such a good understanding of faces @gellenvera. Keep it up!

Oh my, I'm so sorry for the late reply, but thank you so much @leo.glt95 @Lockenheim @000_peanut and @alwaysneedsleep for your kind words!!! I absolutely forgot to check and update this forum page QuQ

I think I will just dump here everything I did for the school since my last update
(I got hired to do some illustrations for a card game and it ate up every minute of my time, so I don't have that much progress :C but at least I learned a lot from making those illustrations!! I can't wait to be able to share them, I just have to wait until they are released )

I thought I will post the random other drawings I made during these months:

I'm currently working on a Spiderman commission, when I'm done with that, I will upload it here

gellenvera 2022-11-16 16:51:37 UTC #46

The Spiderman/Venom commission is finished yay! (I really need those Term 3 anatomy lessons haha )

And here's a progress gif because why not!

prinzmoana 2022-11-17 20:30:38 UTC #47

I love these perspective faces xD Great idea 👌

gellenvera 2022-11-21 20:31:02 UTC #48

Haha thank you @prinzmoana ! It was fun to draw, I can only recommend it!

Btw here is a little nose practise - 1 hour-ish

prinzmoana 2022-11-22 01:20:10 UTC #49

Wow this painting is really damn good o.0
The anatomy is correct, your strokes and edges are nice, and color harmony is great 👍

Nothing really to critique here 😄

gellenvera 2022-11-26 23:38:34 UTC #50

Aw thank you so much @prinzmoana ! To be honest I spent way too much time on this study and also on the next one I'm about to post ahaha I will try to spend less time on the following ones' rendering and instead I wanna do more to learn the shapes better!

snakker 2022-11-27 01:12:21 UTC #51

Yoo just found your sketchbook, Im loving your work especially the previous study where I feel you styled up the eye just a little it works well

Cheers

Nice perspective on the eyelid!
