Morduuuu

learning from the ground up.

Hey folks, I have a new Website that is up and running. Just run off to tylerdonnelly.com and have a looksee- and If you know anyone looking for a graphic designer. Just let them know where to find me! I'll be here. and I'll be waiting.

Post 100!

One hundred days of posts, over 100 pieces worked on studies and other wise. Not as many as I'd have liked to have at this point, but a solid number none the less! Thank you all for being part of this magical time.

Some Mo Things

night time studies

Not the best, but I am working on it.

Value, Shape, perspective study.

Some stuff from the sketchbook.

First off, I haven't died, I just haven't been working in my sketchbook trying to get ideas down. Secondly, here are aforementioned sketches.

decided some horse studies were in order..

Learning the human body.

Female Figure Studies and an odd man out.

5 - 10 minute studies, (not really sure)

Designated imaginary lightsources, I feel like I got this part down, just need to refine the lines on the figures in the future.

Still need more practice.!

Mini Skirts and Mesh

Form and figure study. 1.5hrs

Right away, I can see her head is way to big and not at the right angle, thankfully that wasn't y goal, the shadows are too small on the wall, colors are a little too de-saturated again. She isn't leaning at the correct angle, which is why her hands and legs are wrong, her left leg, is also very twisted. Ugh

went back in... so this what i came up with.

Studies and Imaginations

A set of Loomis Studies along with basic applications. :D
