For The Artist on the Go!

In this rapid day and age where time flies and work piles up, it's nice to come across an area on the web where you can work on developing your drawing skills. I found this great site on you tube. The exercises are gestural, the imagery is clear and the models are perfect. So what are you waiting for? Get out your sketch books and DRAW.
This is an excellent resource for novices and pros alike.

A Few more Ink Samples...

 More great art by Yanick Paquette. I like how he switches from very angular to very flowing lines with his work. I try to maintain as much of his integrity, but allow a nice brush- like feel to the finishes. I hope I achieve it... this is all digital inking,btw.

Inking Yanick Paquette

This Montreal-based illustrator for DC Comics was great enough to forward me his pencils to ink.... this is a great opportunity to flex the cintiq muscles and actually tackle the comic book page! And what an awesome time! Yanick's pencils are tight and powerful, and full of detail. My first example is of Spider-Man, and I must say.... it was with great pleasure! Please tell me what you think.... I will post the others in the next day or so...

You can see Yanick's current stuff in the new DC's Swamp Thing... get out there and get it!
