Turtle Neck

Turtle Neck

I like drawing these animals mixing with human things. I like how obscure they are and how the ideas just pop in my head. I’m going to draw a turtle wearing a turtle neck next. Should be amusing.

I drew Jake the Dog from Adventure Time for my brother’s birthday. I’m also applying my Vogue Face..

Well Seated. 2
This is another oil painting in response to my feed back on my previous piece; “Well Seated”. I was suggested that I try that sort of environment but with a figure just to make it a bit more interesting. This is the outcome. I love the power the use of blue has in this painting and the way it has an Edward Hopper influence behind it. I also like how it feels that you are in that environment when you look at the piece.
I hope you all like and I shall be posting more through out the next few weeks.
“Confessions of a Caffeine Addict”

cold  blue painting warming it up with a cup of coffee…chillz :)

Thanks, I love using blue, it’s better then using black in my opinion (:

Isolated Man, Pencil and Coloured Pencil
Here is a depiction of a gent that caught my eye whilst I was inside The Playhouse, enjoying a coffee with others. I look outside and there is this figure, all alone and in a world of his own, reading the newspaper. I thought this was very interesting and rather theatrical so I had to depict this scene that I saw. I went with the circle layout again because I still find it interesting after my self portrait. I also used mixed media for this piece, pencil and colour pencil. I coloured the figure in first and thought mid way that it may be interesting to try making the background dark by the use of a HB pencil. I thought this would contrast well with the isolated man and make it portray more that he is alone. 
If I could improve on this, I’d work on the figure’s jacket a tad more because I’m not sure about it currently. I might also make the background completely black byt the use of charcoal or black ink.
