New year, new curriculum
Since the start of this year I decided it was seriously time to think about my future as an artist. I wondered if I was doing enough to get hired. 'Am I working as hard as I think I should be?' as Doug Hoppes would put it. He's such a cool guy with interesting thoughts on his career as a painter. Go check him out!
The truth is, no. I'm not nearly doing enough as I could or should to get noticed, let alone even get hired. That's why I decided to break out this year with something completely fresh and new; Female character portraits.
I'm going to step outside my comfort zone and try to learn something new. Ever since I graduated from art class last summer, there has been a significant dip in my work. I'm lacking motivation and discipline. I believe this is because I'm not challenged anymore. I need that study environment more than I thought.
Anyway below you can find part of the proces we go through. Of these four sketches I will pick one and take it further to a finished level.
