One of my favorite films this past year was Hostiles with Christian Bale and Wes Studi. The story, characters and cinematography were amazing. After seeing it, I was inspired to do my own version of the poster.
The scenes below are my favorite parts of the film, don’t watch them if you haven’t seen the movie yet ... spoilers:)
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
Lately I’ve been really craving some traditional brush and nib ink on bristol board. So, I thought I would practice with a drawing of Michael Keaton (my favorite Batman).
Supplies: Speedball India Ink, Holbein Titanium White Acryla Gouache and Zipatone on Strathmore 500 Series bristol board, 2-ply Plate (Smooth). Inked with a Winsor and Newton Series 7 Sable brush (sizes 1 and 2) and a Tachikawa Comic Pen Nib Holder(T-40) with a Zebra Comic G Model Chrome Pen Nib.
Growing up I remember rewinding the scenes posted below over and over until the VHS player was smoking:) They are still some of my favorite Batman scenes from all of the films to this day.
Here is a sketch on how I would have done the 1984 Karate Kid poster. Still one of my favorite movies and soundtracks to this day.
Been re watching Mad Men lately, such a great show. Came across this great scene, where Don sits on the couch and a time lapse goes from Night till Morning. So I felt like doing a quick color study speed paint session to practice...
I felt like sketching my version of what I would want the new Star Wars Episode 7 to look like:) I'm so excited for this movie, as I know most are! I can't wait to see a bad ass, older, yodaesque Luke Skywalker... and from what I hear the story is about, Abrams sounds like he is doing everything just right.
For the idea that I went with, I wanted to play around with using chakras in the drawing. The heart chakra is green, and that is Luke's color and personality, which was a cool coincidence:) Thanks for checkin' it out.
As always I started out with some loose sketching and finalized the one that I liked...
Hey everybody, thanks for checking out my new site! I'll be starting my new blog posts here including daily sketches, my process, as well as other artists work that inspires me.
I'll leave you with one of my favorite scenes from the movie Pollock with Ed Harris...
