Alexander McQueen at the Oscars

 

It almost seems weird to draw someone smiling for once! Here is my illustration of Jessica Chastain at the Oscars for styleandthensome.

How Photoshop can save an Original

Got a private commision for some fashion illustrations, and worked on this one today. Unfortunately I messed up the background, they were supposed to be surrounded in white.

So thanks to it being an original there is no 'history' button. So won't be able to use this one.

I did however, scan it in and used the colour pipette tool to match the indian ink purplish colour and block out the backround, which actually works quite well as a digital image. After hitting the TONE adjustment button to make the image really kick out I am quite happy with it. So it hasn't gone to waste. Illustrations never end up being a waste of time in the end, it's all portfolio fodder.

Beautiful Soul Masterpiece Prints

I haven't shown you these yet as forgot all about them! These were produced as possibilities for prints, but were not used in the end. I think it is a shame as they are so vibrant and busy.
