I have always
found that imitating someones drawing style is one thing,but learning from it is much more. I respect mr Stephen Silver, and two of the three pages I have uploaded are drawn from one of his books.I have no intentions though of copying his style,but learning from it. All animators,and artists for that matter,spend their life striving to build their own style. The last image I have attached is of a giant I am working on. While the work is clearly unfinished,and unrefined, I think that picture in itself illustrates my style,and where it's at right now.
While right now it is very unrefined,and the page is from my sketch book,so it is a work in progress as well. My style is pretty much in a stage of evolution. It most definitely will be for the next few years, but I hope that at this point it shows some sort of footprint that it is,in itself,it's own style,and unlike anyone elses. If at any time I feel my style is mimicing or like turning into a copy of someone elses I look to new inspiration , or just straight up draw things from the back of my mind.
I will be updating again after the weekend,and posting some of my first water colour drawings.
Until then kids, keep it real
