Images From the Drawing Table

While Wednesdays on the blog are often used to share the process and steps that went into a past painting I needed a break from all that today. I decided I would share some close up images of something I am actively working on. They are close up so not to give too much of the image away and to also present a better look at some of my line work as well as my sketch that is printed on the paper. The line art for this piece is complete and I have started on the rendering. If I can carve out a block of time to actually sit and draw I should be able to get this one wrapped up soon. We shall see.

2006 vs 2016

I have been seeing people online posting 2006 vs 2016 comparisons of themselves and their art and I thought I would take part in part of this fun. I have for you today a personal piece I did back in 2006 and a Magic the Gathering card that was released in 2016. 2006 vs 2016...

2006 vs 2016

I can instantly see the vast difference in these two images. All the inexperience and mistakes that I see in the 2006 image really make me cringe. Of course this may come from the fact I remember making it, I remember what when into it, and I know the artist that I was at that time. To help in the comparison I have two closeups of the images side by side...

2006 vs 2016 - Comparison closeups

I think the images speak for themselves and there is really no need for me to elaborate or dwell on them. I will say that no matter what level you are at as an artist you can grow, you can get better, and you work hard to make your dreams a reality. It may take a long time and require a lot of hard work, but it is possible.
