My Surrealist/expressionist work - Page 2

You, my friend, have inspired this drawing out of me. Stupid office pen loosing ink and what not.

And enjoy the boarder I put around it. It was just for you.

have fun.

Spenner · 11-8-2010, 10:23 PM

Hah! That's awesome, I'm so happy to hear I've inspired someone :B

It reminds me of Grinch Night-- if you haven't seen it, it gave me nightmares as a child and probably would still if I watched it again

love it.

DJMillaMusic · 11-8-2010, 10:25 PM

Since its zoomed in it looks really ****ty, its actually around 4 inches by 4 inches. And no I haven't seen it, but have you seen Spirited Away?

Spenner · 11-9-2010, 09:53 AM

I have not, but it looks like it would be worth a watch o:

DJMillaMusic · 11-9-2010, 05:43 PM

Theres a part in that when a bunch of little squiggly things come up out of the darkness, and thats also kind of the basis off of this drawing. Theres not much relation though.

Spenner · 11-9-2010, 09:46 PM

That's cool, I like it

Okay, here's some WIP of a drawing I started last night, it's my first time EVER smudge shading in a drawing EVER o__o lol. Literally my first time using a piece of Kleenex to smudge was on the previous page before I started wiping it on the rough sketch I had... (since then I've been using Q-tips)

Still needs a lot of work. This is definitely the longest I've spent on a drawing but it's had the most payoff so far =D

DJMillaMusic · 11-9-2010, 09:51 PM

Its very good, your smudging is amazing for your first time. Shading drawings are something of a strong suit for me. Ill find a picture of one. But what you have going so far is very good. The only thing I would say, is try and shade out more, it seems like a lot of your shades have too even of lines, it makes them look more like colors than shadows, if you know what I'm saying.

Edit: The tonsils on drawing 2 look really cool how you did it.

DJMillaMusic · 11-9-2010, 10:04 PM

Again, sorry about the quality, used my phone...

Hooray for my cross-fader chillin' in the corner!

Spenner · 11-9-2010, 11:34 PM

That's pretty cool

mostly linework I would say, though, rather than shading, but still very nice linework

And thanks-- the throat is pretty simple, I just drew in some pretty thick lines around the edges of it, smudged into the center, used what was leftover to buff up the tonsils and then just sort of circle around it a bit.

Spenner · 11-11-2010, 10:39 PM

Hey now, those were top notch and I would've gone on to win multiple awards had I not been modest enough to give others a chance by not submitting those to any online contests.

But thanks!

Spenner · 12-7-2010, 12:00 AM

BUMP with some stuff.

As you can probably tell, I'm still really experimenting with style choices here. I'll probably be doing that for quite some time :I

Your links don't work. The whole thing is the correct url, but they are hyperlinking to something other than the whole url. I looked at them though by copying and pasting. Cool stuff. I think I like those ones done on paper better.

Spenner · 12-7-2010, 11:37 AM

Oh god, I have the link directing to the text I was supposed to have visible for the hyperlinks >_> goddamn.

And thanks, but yeah, my paper stuff is definitely what I'm more comfortable with at the moment. Hopefully that will change though, because inevitably I'll need to become good with digital art.

who_cares973 · 12-7-2010, 11:42 AM

oh god dont use kleenex as a smudging tool. the lotion in the tissue is so bad...so so bad. stick to Q-tips or lotion free tissues/toilet paper. or get some smudging sticks/tortillons!!

**Superfreak04** · 12-7-2010, 12:22 PM

All these works of art are really great, keep up the good work everyone.

Believe it or not, nope. This is what I was primarily listening to.

And thanks guys

I'm working on a robot made from scrap stuff for a project due thursday, I'll post that up once I'm done maybe, or I might just wait until thursday because I get my projects back as well as my sketchbook, so I can begin uploading some of the stuff I've been doing this year.

Spenner · 02-6-2011, 01:19 AM

Lolbump.
