YVES YUMOL SKETCH BLOG: March 2010

http://creativecheckpoint.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Wednesday, March 31, 2010. After trying to look more into the art fields, I decided take a path on being an Illustrator after taking my basic drawing class. what a jump! So what the heck? Why not take an Illustration class? This class was also taught by my former basic drawing teacher, which was also my figure drawing teacher the same semester. The class was composed mostly of critiques and a lot of homework doing thumbnails, refining, more refining, critiques, and more refining. Constructive criticism i...

YVES YUMOL SKETCH BLOG: Digital Painting Practice

http://creativecheckpoint.blogspot.com/2013/08/digital-painting-practice.html

Saturday, August 31, 2013. I've been really needing to get up to speed on digital painting again. Some studies I did this past week: two from reference photos, a Sargent master copy, and a still life. More pots! I've been using as much as I can from what I've learned from traditional oil painting, but I'm also trying to learn how to make my own brushes. Also still using RGB sliders to get my colors because it's a lot closer to "mixing" colors the traditional way than using HSB sliders.

Monday, May 31, 2010. Painting 2 (Spring 10). After seeing all these paintings together, I realized that all my paintings from the first semester were all vertical, while my paintings from the previous were all horizontal.interesting. The first project was to work from the same still life as painting 1 students, but instead of just black and white, we had to add some color to it and still see them as black, white, and grey objects. What a difference a year made. Now I like it haha. Painting 1 (Spring 09).

Work from Marshall's Animal Drawing class at FJC. First one was a practice where we drew from a picture for about 30 minutes. The second was the skeleton I chose at the La Brea Tar Pits Page Museum. We had a pretty good time and the tour by Robert was cool. I learned. Self Portrait and Sketch #4.

YVES YUMOL SKETCH BLOG: February 2010

Sunday, February 28, 2010. High School Art Class (senior 05-06). Since art was so fun I took another class ;p. The first semester was supposed to be focused on commercial art and the second was a sort of studio lab where we get to do whatever we want. Having too much freedom was a little too much and didn't make me want to really do anything so I wasn't as productive as I could have been. Especially with all the things going on senior year:. Tennis, clubs (including art),. Ahand a Warcraft piece! Around ...

YVES YUMOL SKETCH BLOG: January 2011

http://creativecheckpoint.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html

Monday, January 31, 2011. Got a new and sexy looking sketchbook today along with a bunch of supplies for CDA. Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway" is a title of a book by Susan Jeffers. So I felt like writing something on the first pages I drew on in my new sketchbook, and I thought this was totally appropriate. I mean isn't it a bit scary starting a new, clean, and innocent sketchbook? Maybe that's what the image was all about ;p. And when I was all done, it kind of reminds me of a Dr. Seuss book cover.

YVES YUMOL SKETCH BLOG: April 2010

http://creativecheckpoint.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 30, 2010. Some of the greatest things we learned in the class were from the Old Masters: techniques, knowledge, compositions, and small bits of their history. Half of the 6 assignments we had to do was to copy a master of our choosing, just like in Drawing From the Masters class. I didn't know any watercolor painters at all, but of course Marshall recommended a few. I ended up discovering Winslow Homer's work and chose him as a "watercolor touchstone.". Instead of doing cropped versions of ...

YVES YUMOL SKETCH BLOG: September 2010

http://creativecheckpoint.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html

Wednesday, September 29, 2010. Self Portrait and Sketch #3. I had the impulse to grab a sharpie once I set up a mirror on my table to draw myself. Quick and fun. Also did a crazy doodle then scanned it and played around with some brushes in PS. Sooo many brushes. I used like 3. out of a gazillion different ones that it comes with. I wonder why I would even need to make my own brushes like others have mentioned. Still can't wait to get a Wacom Tablet! Tuesday, September 28, 2010. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
