MY WIFE READING

I saw my wife reading a couple of days ago and I thought: "That would make a great picture!" She was looking extra hawt with her glasses. I finally sat down and drew it from memory.


I've been here and there. I've drawn a lot of pictures. I've written a bit, too. I'm not good at this self-promotion thing. Look, you want to know about me? just visit these websites. Okay?

MINIMALIST FANTASY PIN-UP

Minimalist, obviously because of the simple lines. She's a pin-up because she is posing and she is naked. What makes it a fantasy pin-up? She's holding a spear.

Does it work? I will eventually work it up as a full painting. Eventually.

FRANK FRAZETTA

Frank Frazetta has passed away at age 82.

It has been a sad day for me today. I knew that it was unlikely that we were ever going to get any new masterpieces from him. Being realistic, his best work was well behind him. Still, hearing the news of his passing has really affected me.

Frank Frazetta was an icon of Fantasy illustration and a personal inspiration to me. He, above all others, inspired me to become an illustrator. His paintings were so strong it was like being punched in the face with them. He could induce fear, wonder and longing in me, sometimes all with the same picture. I, like many others, would often buy a crappy book just because it sported a Frazetta cover.

He had no equal.

Goodbye, Frank. Your amazing pictures surrounded me growing up and your images still crowd my imagination. You are an icon and an inspiration.

AN EXPERIEMENT ALONG EROTIC LINES Step 3

Well, step three is to take it into Corel Painter. I wasn't sure if I just wanted to colourize it and keep the black lines or work it up into a full painting. Once I got started I pretty soon realized that I was on my way to turning this into a full painting. This is where I'm at with it so far.

I have to leave it for a bit while I concentrate on the wraparound cover for DARK WORLDS #5, but I will post again on this when I am able to get back to it.

And no more philosophy about the nature of eroticism. Not today, anyways.

AN EXPERIMENT ALONG EROTIC LINES - STEP TWO

Here is STEP TWO. I've darkened the lines and, as you can see I have changed the figure's position a bit. The line is cleaner now. I didn't have to boost the contrst as much with this one. I did have to do a bit of clean up but only because my scan plate was dirty. Need to clean that.

I may be overintellectualizing the process of drawing a simple pin-up, but it is fascinating to me how erotic an image I can create with simple lines. I would appreciate feedback on this. What do you think? Is this picture erotic?

Not sure what step three is going to be. I'll have to take some time and think about it.
