DraGi and Indian Girl




Two sketches I'm working on. The one with the dragon and a girl I'm making an oil painting of, but I'm thinking to draw it digital too.

Salixia Update

Update :Note : Not finished


donderdag 9 juli 2009

Salixia

My current project. Far from being done but I thought it wouldn't hurt me to post an update. Let me introduce to you : Salixia. Her mother was a nymph and her father a faune. She got the pure beauty of a nymph but the horns and hoofs from her father.

Background info:

*I will update as soon as I get some real improvement to the drawing.

Practice

Not much to say about this drawing other then I made it to practice some. I don't like it a lot as the girl doesn't really have an emotion.

Alone in the dark, are you?

Another unfinished idea. As a little girl I was affraid of the dark. I was affraid of seeing red eyes glowing from behind the windows or monsters hiding in my closets or ghosts hidden in my mirrors. In the dark, cloths on chairs seem monsters and windows seem dark mirrors to evil worlds. My idea was the draw a girl walking in a dark forrest but all the monsters hiding in the shadows aren't monsters at all when she comes up close. Weird insects become butterflies and shadows become normal forrest animals or even bushes. I got the idea of making her glow from the movie stardust. The idea is to make her surroundings light green with butterflies, flowers etc. The rest needs to stay very dark and mysterious. I want to have a painty feel to the forrest in contrast with the real picture I used for the girl (again http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/) the ferret on her leg is my own sweet little deamon, demi.
I also want this drawing to symbolise being insecure about things. When you are insecure about something usually when you either experience or when you think about it later there was nothing to be insecure about.

Northern Lights

I was reading the northern lights trilogy and I adore the idea of having deamons. Deamons are your soul and are shaped like animals. So I got to the idea of making a sort of witchlike character with her deamon. She travelled far through the snow from other continents or maybe even other worlds. I wanted her deamon to have the same expression as she has because they are one. The idea was to have Northern lights in the background and to give her a big furry coat which had the same furr as the big cat I still didn't get around to finish the idea though but maybe I will when my skills of combining pictures with drawing are a bit better. The big cat is drawn with my wacom the picture I used for the girl is from: http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/
