And more giraffes! Enjoy!

At school we had to draw the subject using some kind of art style, as you remember!. And I chose Art Nouveau. Ah it's so lovely. I like this one so much, and it took lots of time to do this! Especially those circles!

And then the giraffe on a black paper. Not the best succeeded work I've ever made, but alright anyway.
And then we had to form the subject from other subjects, and I chose candles! First I thought about going outside with them but then the wind blow away half of them so I chose to stay inside. But still it turned out to be quite nice :)

051210 - Art Noveau, Le Inspiration a'la Moi

(yes, I can't speak French)
We had a school assignment where we had to be inspired of some art style(not sure about the English translation, krhm) - f ex impressionism, pop art, realism etc. After quite a long time of pondering I chose Art Nouveau, or Jugend(but Art Nouveau sounds fancier :D) I really love all those details and oh the hair! It looks so wonderful in every picture. Take a look:
I tried to copy the last one because I hadn't made these kind of things before. And I'm pretty satisfied what I have made!
But I need some practise - as always - although I don't have much time to practise because this must be ready until the end of this week!
And part of the assignment is that you need to make a object using this style of art. And my object is giraffes, like you remember right? And these are some sketeches about my Art Nouveau-giraffe.
And even though I love drawing those hair, I think they make the giraffe look more like a horse than a giraffe. So the right one is...the right one I guess :D

Illustrator is my new best friend

We had a course about using Illustrator, it was quite fun! It's nice to notice that there're millions of shapes you can make from like one circle or square! Illustrator is a good program if you want basic shapes, but if you want more details, it might be a bit difficult. But I'm just an amateur..!

Here we had to make different kind of logos for supermarket or something like that:


Here's our last work, we had to design a magazine cover, and I found that awesome photo by Elena Kalis. She has took some incredible photos under water! So, my magazine would be about "lifestyle, design, travel, explore" - as you can see. I really like it!
(the picture went quite strange, I don't know why, hmm)
Everybody had to make a panda. Mine came a bit crazy!
And THIS is REAL Illustrator art, you can find more pictures made by him here. (the page is in Finnish)
I looove owls, and this one is so grrrrreat! I could frame it on my wall!

And yeah we made some other works as well but I'm too lazy to put them here(and they aren't really that good, these are "the best" ones lol :D

Giraffes, giraffes.

Again some school work! We had to make different versions from one subject, and I chose(well the teacher suggested it but anyway) my giraffe necklace! I think these turned out to be quite nice, considering that I made these yesterday evening totally in panic... :D

These details have obviously some awesome characters! Bad-ass, albino, fancy-pants, wooden giraffe, worried giraffe and hard plastic.

I made some extra-ones so I would have more to choose, and here is the Zebra and the Goat.

Sketchbook pages


We tried Promarkers in school, and it was AWESOME. (eventhough I had only grey Promarkers because my Aqua Promarkers didn't work like they should have...) This is what we made:
The teacher was fun, and he had a Scottish accent so it took always few seconds before I realized what he said and he must have thought I was a retarded or something like that, eh.

These have been made in school also, on our Photography lesson. It WAS interesting, but I felt like drawing! I wanted to "invent" an animal which wasn't really an animal but still kind of it was... Complicated? Well look, at the creature on the left!
He likes dancing! I just have to make up him a name, any suggestions?
Raaaandooooom!
I like this last one, the man has been made in train and the woman has been made in a ship.

241010 - School stuff and something else

Hello again!
I haven't been very industrious lately, but I still try to update my blog every now and then. We have to make 10 drawings/paintings from model, and here's on of them, I guess that's the best one. I'm still working on the others and hoping to get them done in time!
And then something I've been working on just for fun:
I hope it will be nice when it's ready :)

021010 Mystical leopard-cat-thing

Apparently I had a little summer vacation here.. Well, let's go on! I haven't drawn EVERY DAY as I should have, but I started my studies with graphic design and we have drawn some more "serious" stuff there. I'll put them here some day. :D

But. I bought new Aqua Promarkers!! I had to try them and this is what came to the paper:
And I have a new blog-idea(yeah, I have only 3 blogs now, why not to make a 4th one?)coming up, so keep reading! ;)
