My Artistic Inspirations

I follow a lot of my favourite artists on my instagram - https://www.instagram.com/rlcillustration/

I am generally attracted to styles that incorporate animals in some way as this is what I am personally interested in. I enjoy seeing how others visualise animals and how they portray this in their work.


Here are a few -

Tobias Illustrations -

I really like his work as I enjoy working with finalisers and monochrome too but I have never experimented the way he does. He has inspired me to try new techniques such as pointillism and to keep practicing.

Bryan Holland Arts - 

I really enjoy the mix of abstract and realism in his work and he paints popular animals such as owls, elephants, canines, and big cats so his work will appeal to someone somewhere even if one animal doesn't. He keeps it varied rather than focusing on one creature, which may get stagant for followers after a while. This is a tip i should consider myself. 

@bigalstattoos 

He is a UK based tattooist and skeleton articulator. Not the most common form of art, particularly in the UK,  but one that requires an intimate knowledge of anatomy, artistic vision and of course a lot of skill! His work is great for reference and just cool to look at in general. 

Compositing Final Pieces -

I realised I never posted these on my blog. These are some my final pieces I produced for the compositing module. I couldn't upload the other two due to size constraints. I feel personally my most successful one was the shapes being stood on and this is the one I am most happy with. 

PPD TASKS Part 1 - April 2016 - ART BOOK

'Weekly Reflection' on project/course so far -

I am currently working on finishing up everything for my final hand in deadline, as well as deciding what art I want to complete for my final show.

I have sent off my art book, (made on blurb.com) and it should be here by the 28th April.  (I have included screenshots of the previews available on the site below, for those interested.)
