tuscanTurtles!

Inspired by a shot of some long-necked turtle on the interwebs, I decided to have a little fun. No more than cleaned-up sketches w/ a little color + composited on a motion-blurred Tuscan pano, but this is probably as far as I'll take 'em. Had to post them though, before disappearing into the darkest reaches of drooopppp boooooooox...

SURF! series

Hey all,

So! I'm getting back into more personal art lately- TONS of pieces/ drawings on deck, so as usual, won't be spending a bit of time on each piece-- initially, although might come back to them later, if they deserve it;)-- but wanted to start getting SOME art posts and color on here.

As of now, this series only has 3 pieces, but the waves have been so fun draw that I'm sure I'll be adding more!

Wave_03, drawing, photoshop, hand-inked papers for detail, + kept the moleskine sketchpad trim on there for good measure. Might play around with the palette on this one a bit more, as I'm not too happy with it... but probably not;P

FUN FACT: I am actually a HORRENDOUS surfer, despite religiously going multiple times a week while living Los Angeles!
