Mix that with some vibrant color studies and I had the beginnings of "New Light", a piece I enjoyed the hell out of creating. It was an outlet for me at a time when I was drawn to use color more ambitiously and perhaps less naturalistically. Color studies and thumbnails would show up more often from here on out in my sketch pages, and it's a good thing too. Every piece I've done a little miniature color composition study for has turned out way better than figuring it out as I go. Even so, I have MANY lessons left to learn where color comp is concerned :P

Very cool! It's great seeing what came before the work you posted. What other concepts were out there. What you had in mind. The tests and all. Very cool to get a peek behind the process.

Yessss please keep posting sketches I love it
Kalahari
Yeah, I'd almost forgotten about that pose, but really did want to do SOMETHING with it. Maybe I still will.

Always nice to see your sketches, even more so when they feature Juno :). I wouldn't mind seeing that sketch on the left, with Juno lying on her back, turned into a full image :).

I get a lot out of seeing other artists' sketch pages too. It can be a real insight into how they do their work AND how they put their thoughts on paper.

That really sucks about all the sickness. I've come down with two bugs since the new year myself -- not exactly loving that :P It's really good to hear my scribbles can offer you something positive during the rough times. I've already got a huge backlog of sketches, so posting them will be easy!

Thank you for posting these! As an aspiring artist, I love seeing the process and sketching that others go through, and both these sheets have been great!

Eh, I dunno... The suspense prolly helps keep some of us alive! Though, none of us would object to more brain-picking and cutie posting, either! The recent posts certainly give me some warmth, I've been sick pretty much since mid-December with back to back flus and now possibly Covid. Too exhausted to do anything but seeing your stuff always brings a smile and inspiration!
Kalahari
I really shouldn't be so withholding x3

Two Kalahari posts? Within a week? It's truly a late Christmas miracle! :D

When I get to the stage where I was taking an online anatomy course, there's going to be a LOT of focus on particular body parts
Kalahari
Thanks -- the sketches are always the most lively!
Aelius
Very nice variety here! I love the array of poses and foci on areas of the body. Can't get enough of Juno ^_^
Kalahari
Unsurprisingly, she shows up a lot in my sketches. Much more than my finished pics!
Greg
Love your sketchy expressions!
