IF - Intricate

This is my post for Illustration Friday's topic intricate. As butterfly wings have very intricate patterns on them I thought it was very apt for this week.

I haven't posted for quite some time and this black and white drawing I have done of a butterfly isn't finished. I am currently on maternity leave waiting for the arrival of my little girl. As the due date has already past I thought I would get it on here now. Just in case I don't get another chance before next Friday.

I am hoping this drawing will be the beginning of a more complex design for a T-shirt. Eventually with lots of other components and colour.
A quick colour version.

IF - Fierce

This is an image I created especially for this weeks IF topic.

I used it as an opportunity to experiment a bit with composition. I began by scanning in a quick pencil drawing and then built the picture up by using photoshop. It was quite fun to use the liquify tool to make the expression more aggressive. Growl!!

To see how I progressed from a quick pencil sketch to this image click here.

IF - Primitive

This is a drawing I did some time ago. I thought it was appropriate for this weeks Illustration Friday challenge 'Primitive', ie 'less advanced'.

Illustration Friday - Green Dragon

I created this image in photoshop after drawing a manga sketch of a girl with a pet dragon.
