Sketches and Speed Paints

60-minute "speed" paint by Vizon

Sat, 09 Aug 2008 06:21:46 -0000

I wanted to try to get back into speed painting again, but this was kind of pushing the definition of "quick" at 1 hour. It seems I'll need to do more so I can get back to 10 and 20 minute exercises. This little dino was inspired by a white pelican.

Buffapoodle by Vizon

From Friday night's unofficial art jam Higgins suggested as "An animal aspiring to be another animal." As far as I know, I'm the only one who didn't fall asleep before finishing. So I guess really it's kind of a gift to Higgins. Happy Birthday, man. Good luck with your new pick-up line.

Temptation by Vizon

I've been reading a book on brown bears in Alaska and was perusing the critique forum when I came across Spirit Creation's bear and thought, "Gee, I'd really like to draw a bear right now." So I did. And here he is.

If Bruce were an anthro... by Vizon

Second ever Artspots Ambush! What fun! I figured my favorite celebrity, Bruce Willis, would be a good rhino as he is tough and charges through things without hardly a scratch to show for it.

Not a Bull but Just as Bad by Vizon

A sketch a did a long while back for Boxcutter's TP. I drew this while I was taking figure drawing so she came out really nice (though I can't say the same for the backdrop). I've been experimenting with coloring this and giving it a better background.
