colours colour the world

right side is using crepe paper and sticking them into a box. left side is a quick painting of the right side
practising colour mixing!!
everyone should try this if them wanna improve their accuracy for colour mixing

right side crepe paper, left side paint
medium: crepe paper and water colours
info: drawn on a a4 sketch book

snippets of fonts from magazine and me completing them, it was quite fun!
trains you to observe so you can draw them accurately
medium: magazine cut outs, pencil, marker
info: drawn on an a4 sketch book

the left side is made of many many small boxes and just by shading the boxes, i get a pixellated picture of the right.
its done real quick in like 15 mins so its no very accurate
medium: 2b pencil
info: total size of both pics is an a4

sorry about the reflection, cause its acrylic and it sort of reflects light :(
will upload another picture of it when i have time

attention paid to detail! attempting to create a texture for the frog's skin. the eye is smooth and theres reflection in it too! the frog's skin is slightly rough, just like many many little goosebumps (i think you get the idea what i'm trying to paint out)
frog on a strawberry! i cant turn the first picture around, so sorry!
medium: acrylic paint
info: a3 size black paper



pencil drawings of a chinese mushrom. loads of details!!!! good training for observation skills!
medium: 2b pencil
info: all 3 drawn on an a4 sketch book

this is the painting of the mushrooms. drew lines across to 'cut' the painting up and painted them. its contrasting as each strip alternates between cool and warm colour. right most strip(supposed to be the bottom of the painting, cant rotate it) is cool, followed by warm. also, for each section of the mushroom, cool tint and cool shade. so there are contrasting parts everywhere. it is messy in a sense but it creates an interesting composition

top 4 pics are done in 2009, rest are done in 2010
