EARLY ACCESS // sketch session (Patreon)
Content
I’ve been using really smooth moleskine paper to sketch for many years now, but it makes the lines really definitive and sharp, which makes it difficult to blend and smudge. So I pulled out a watercolor sketchbook and tried that instead. I really liked how that felt - it made it so much easier to create blended shadows and use the stump to get some more depth and volume. These are all just some random heads for now but I’d love to try this techinque for a more detailed piece, or maybe as a starting point to scan & turn into something digital.
Lately I’ve been super inspired by the art of Eleeza and Chris Hong, who create so much volume in their work! If you don’t know their work yet, you have to check it out. It’s because of them that I’m wanting to do more traditional stuff lately.
Hope you like these and I hope you guys all have an amazing weekend :)
