tonight's entry


was going to do something with value again tonight.. and I did.. just somewhere along the line it turned back to colour.. i discovered that I like drawing "more" in photoshop when it's at a really high resolution.. say.. 3200 x 2400.. not sure why.. the line feels like it's doing more what I want it to do.. maybe all the little hand twitches and vibrations aren't as visible at this resolution??

value compositions


well.. here goes.. wanted to do some more compositional stuff.. read about making images with 4 values...

I'm no expert at it... so I thought I would give it a try.. the bottom two images shows.. what i started with, before going into any kind of rendering.. just in case anyone is interested..

Tim's


tried applying some marker to the drawings.... neat effect.. however.. I don't like that it bleeds through the page.. maybe this means I can only draw on one side of the page if I do this technique.... other page was tim hortons as well..along with some compositional studies...

added some tone as well.. digital of course... did a bit of experimentation... in the end decided that I sort of like just adding white to it.... darker ones.. look kind of muddy.. or something.. anyway...
