Old Artwork: Figure Drawing & Gesture

Some stuff from earlier in the year. These exercises were focused on live figure drawing and gesture and were created very quickly. Usually we were only given 15-30 seconds to draw an entire figure. A few of these are as long as 1 minute, but few are beyond that. Some drawings with longer allowed time.Continue reading “Old Artwork: Figure Drawing & Gesture”

Mixed Media Final: Windsong

The Final Project for Drawing II involved using multiple media types in combination to create a cohesive Mixed Media piece. Finally, a chance to use everything in my art box! My initial concept was a tower surrounded by an inkstorm with various worlds and dimensions suspended within the maelstrom. However, I ended up pursuing aContinue reading “Mixed Media Final: Windsong”

Psychological Portrait

Or as I’ve started calling it: PSYCHA. Why? No idea. I think I probably made a typo somewhere and it just stuck in my brain. Anyways, I made this PSYCHA portrait of my brother/apprentice, Lance. Since portraits aren’t my specialty, I did lots of sketchbook tests before I committed to anything on my larger paper.Continue reading “Psychological Portrait”

Mark Making

For this project, I initially intended to use ink, so it was the medium for my early sketchbook experiments. However, I found difficulty in controlling the ink flow and maintaining a consistent value between marks, even after trying several drawing implements, including both traditional brushes and homemade tools. So next I did some experiments withContinue reading “Mark Making”

Prismatic Still Life

(& Janet Fish) This still life explores a very unique approach to contour study. Color is incorporated into the design of this piece, but not in a traditional sense. Each layer added to the drawing is drawn in an increasingly warm hue, with the gestural start and perspective mapping being cold blues, the initial lineworkContinue reading “Prismatic Still Life”

Animations page

Added a new animations page to the blog. It’s pretty empty at the moment, but I’m working on some epic projects to put in there! Here’s a jump-fall-land sequence I’m building for a character that will be going into a game soon: What I’m Listening To: What I’m Listening To is what I’m listening toContinue reading “Animations page”

Self Portrait Combiner

So this was a weird project I did. First, I drew four individual self-portraits (some of which ended up quite ugly!), then I stacked them all in Photoshop to create this bizarre layered face, which I then attempted to recreate by hand on 18×24″ drawing paper. Pretty scary! Why did it make me look likeContinue reading “Self Portrait Combiner”

Old Artworks

Here’s some stuff from earlier this year (January-February 2020): First up is Alfred’s Day Out, a graphite contour study. Aflred’s the gremlin. The second drawing is an untitled negative space study of a beat up bicycle chassis created with Sharpie and black+white paint. Last is my favorite of the bunch, Mood Inkworks. It was createdContinue reading “Old Artworks”

The Original Blog Post

So, yeah, that’s pretty much it. — Albert Einstein (probably). This is the first post on the blog. There’s not really anything here. It’s just the first one. 3/31/2020 Edit: Just realized something. It’s the second post.

Yo

Itsa me, Titus. Why do this? I make artwork sometimes. And other things To be honest, this blog post was just here as a stock “iNTRoDuCe YouRSeLF!” prompt and I couldn’t bother to delete it, so here we are.
