Come undone

Marvine Malic. Potrebbe essere l'ultimo per un po' a meno che non decida di finire l'ultimo pezzo ancora incompleto.
Su questo disegno ho provato a lavorarci anche con gli acrilici, ma non ho avuto il risultato che speravo per via della mia idea troppo ambiziosa di cosa fare con le luci. Ma voi ditemi cosa pensate di questa versione.

Risultati del workshop: esercizio con i colori
workshop colori
Al workshop di domenica ho approfondito l'uso dei colori. Questi sono una serie di esercizi volti a studiare i contrasti complementari (viola contro giallo, arancio contro azzurro, verde contro rosso) e i contrasti tra colori spenti (grigio e marrone) e colori accesi. Niente che possa far gridare al miracolo, ma un piccolo passo avanti che voglio ricordare.

Tagged!
The amazing Brian Lue Sang tagged me on his blog.

The rules:
-Link to the individual who tagged you.
-Post 7 random facts about yourself.
-Tag 7 friends and link to them
-Let them know they've been tagged by posting a nice message on their blogs.

The first point is already done. ;-)
I'm not going to tag 7 people though. Instead, I will post links to the blogs of 7 people I find talented or interesting in what they draw, write or both, so you can go see for yourself. :-D

And now on with the random facts!

1. I have friends that have never seen the natural color of my hair. Some of them really freak out with surprise when they see a picture from some years back. I'm one of those people who totally change with a new haircut or dye.

2. I found my current job through a friend who forwarded to me an e-mail she had received adding "This is just the kind of job that would suit you!"
Was it really? I still don't know.

3. I started drawing as a regular habit after I fell in love with Sailor Moon. It was something that happened totally by chance because I shoud have been at school when I saw the first episode, but I was sick.

4. When I was a little girl, I wanted to wear glasses and every time I had my sight checked, I hoped that the doctor would find me short-sighted. I always turned out to have 10/10 though. Always working on the computer like I do, I'm not sure that is still true...

5. The first Internet website I became a regular at was the band Muse's official website in 2001. It was very different back then though.

6. I read fanfiction. Altough I tend to consider that as something of a guilty pleasure.

7. I love to cook sweet things, but I do it rarely, otherwise I'll gain more weight from eating my own delicacies.



Ando now, the links! (In no particular order)

Noêin, home of the Nachtbummler group, contains samples from the magnificent work of Tristam Strauss. If you are looking for an artist who fuses Japanese and European influences with amazing results, look no further.

Mari-Mari chan, a Japanese illustrator who lives in Italy with her husband and daughter. Her everyday tales in images of her child growing up are one of the funniest things you'll ever read!

Hellevation, Enrychan's blog. Not only she is a promising mangs-style comic artist, but she also writes with humour and wit.

Il salotto di Milady de Winter. Milady is a teacher and has lots of stories about her pupils to tell, some extremely funny, some that make you angry and some that make you think. She is also a classical music lover, not to mention an entertaining narrator.

Sognando, Mirka Andolfo's art blog. I LOVE the way she draws. Period.

Eloisa's Illustrations and Characters. Her drawings are light-hearted, bright, full of the sweetness of childhood and ultimately delicious.

Appunti a me stessa
Friedrich Karl Waechter è stato un illustratore e scrittore - anche teatrale - tedesco.
Non molti al di fuori della Germania lo conoscono, e io stessa sono venuta a contatto con le sue opere grazie a un libro che la mia insegnate di disegno mi ha prestato.
Se vi capita qualcosa di suo in mano, dateci un'occhiata.

Mamma con bambine
Mother with girls
Marvine Malic nuovamente. Mi piaceva da sempre questa immagine che Charlie aveva disegnato ma non sapevo come colorarla; sentivo che l'acquarello sarebbe stato adatto ma non mi sentivo in grado di provarci. Adesso che sto imparando, ho tentato... e devo dire che il risultato è meglio di quanto sperassi. Ma c'è ancora tanta strada da fare! I commenti saranno molto graditi, anche quelli di tipo tecnico, anzi specialmente quelli!

Prove con l'acquerello
Watercolor model
Una bozza di pittura ad acquerello rapida rapida. Ho semplicemente colorato una delle pose del mio corso di nudo dal vero. La testa è fuori proporzione, stavo solo badando alla posa del corpo. Tra l'altro mi spiace di non aver rappresentato il viso della modella perchè era delizioso. :-)
