Jowybean shenanigans 14/3/16

Tonight I decided to test my speed painting skills with two initial colours and then see where the process took me from there. 

The above speed painting is a quick example of the type of personal work I would like  to continue to create outside my current ongoing projects like Humanization.com 

A juxtaposed universe of fantasy and reality with a strong emphasis on architecture and cartoons.

Below is my WIP of the speed painting.  

time spent: 3 hours

until next post Laters :)

Jowy Shenanigans 13/11/13 some new updates of sorts

I find myself getting up late on my days off from work because of how cold and damp its getting outside in the UK. I just want to stay in my bed for another 10 minutes but old man winter wind sends his cold air right up my back and wakes me up rudely.

About the Graphic design job……yeah… it may be temporary until Christmas and I do not want to put any information or twitter rants out there. Lets just say its been a good experience and I have improved on my design skills since I started there 8or 9 weeks ago. But come next year it would be best for me to find a better graphic design studio.

Big thing next Saturday

I am vendoring at the local craft fair Crafty Muthas Sat23rd in my local church. Preparation has been underway for the fair since last week all my prints and Xmas cards I designed have arrived and will be uploaded after the fair and yes some of them are pony related so stay tuned for those beauties. I am throwing in some BUCK prints and prints of my old art that got me started on the path to illustration). I have such an amazing story on how I got started as a young artist but I should save that for another day not enough energy to type it all out today lol also I am not a big head or Trixie lol.

little preview of the prints and cards i have reday for the fair the cards will be uploaded after or before the event have to see

Usually I would be going to the big comic con up in Leeds called Thought Bubble but to save time and money for my U.S con plans for next year. I am missing it this year a little sad :( about it obviously. But I have a bright creative future ahead: excited: and want to keep the distractions to a minimum if possible I still have not touched GTA 5 in weeks or caught up with my YouTube subscriptions. :nuu: :stupidme: 

I started livestreaming recently and I plan to do more in the coming weeks. My first experience was very positive, did not shut up for a whole three hours I love to talk sometimes folks if you know this blog you understand what I mean.

Because of all these shenanigans I have postponed the development on my Jowy web comic and Humanise.com, :no: which I am a little disappointed to stop But I have to concentrate on the markets I am currently involved in to break into something then nothing. Please still support and check out the projects on my DA account we will return to them soon enough it's not dead. :phew:
Plus I am making the effort with illustration Friday again so you can always see my :crazy: zany illustration style there.

have a cute pony  

Since starting my job at UK Print and media i have wanted to get back in to the habit of studying from life aka my journey to work. And the metro newspapers as there are so many helpful interesting references to use for practising realism these are three of the studies i have done in the last eight weeks third one i am least satisfied with but live and learn as Crush 40 say XD (only some will get that joke)

Until next Post LATERS ; )

Illustration Friday submission: Lush is his name...i think

Because of all of the brony commissions i have been getting since coming back from BUCK 2013. i have not really thought up a good enough idea for this weeks submission  that i could do to a high quality so heres a tonal sketch of the idea i had instead. 

this weeks theme was LUSH i don't know either  what this has to do with that word but its something at least.

next week i will do much better 

LATERS 

Jowybean ;) 

Illustration Friday Submission: Fresh Walk

decided to try some digital painting for this challenge :)

and got it submitted on time.

until next Post Laters ;)  

What happened to the daily thing you said

Fell like I have dropped the ball on my blog posting again sorry it’s a bad habit (laziness) that will change. Reason why i do not post a lot is because i have spent almost an hour and a half doing theses and that gets boring quickly. i like to have a good amount of information when i update then just give you something pretty to look at. 

big update coming in the next few days or sooner depends 

 until next post LATERS  ^^;

Jowy Shenanigans 3/2/13

UP - DATE...... u get it 

Opps Sorry if there have not been a blog post in a few days a lot of shenanigans happened last week and I have found it a little more challenging to juggle all these projects and things I am doing consistently to get my work noticed by the web.

What happened last week I hear you mentally say?

My talented musical friend Cameron Aka C-Dog was interested last year in doing a comic series for my character Jowy. before the end of last year I had given him a brief rundown of the world and the characters that inhabit it so he could write some material in his spare time.  On Wednesday he emailed me 3 scripts he had written for my characters and was I impressed. He really captured their personalities and made them believable. I now want to start working on this thing so badly. But I have to be realistic with time and consider what is priority.

I joined Behance officially so link to some of the professional more finished pieces of mine  .

This colourful  MLP FIM dragon crossover picture was a paid commission I got from someone on DA for his fan fiction Fiery Incantation .

I have read some of it and being the brony I am outside of my work life Its really got me interested in checking out more pony fics they are written quite well.

Wait where’s Humanise.com in all this

No point asking CADRA and Mutt about this

Nowhere I was busy with the commission and job searching that I put the development on hitas last week. This coming week I start layouts for the story it’s going to be great.

Last thing I want to mention before I close this post out is that I am having a blood test early tomorrow morning because there sadly is a history of relatives in my family dying from heart attacks later on in their lives. I am sure we can all agree that’s the last thing I want to deal with down the road.

NO Please NO... NO the legend of the Titanic animated movies JUST GIVE ME THE STING XD

So yeah them needles I am scared and secretly panicking. Drawing this exaggerated cartoon on my tablet has clamed me down and made me realize its not that horrible and these are professionals who know what they are doing. No need to worry (unless you live in cartoon reality) then RUN FOR THE HILLS.

lol Anyway folks until next Post LATERS ;)
