Little Red Ridding Hood, Modern Style. 

My Most recent illustration for class. Oil on board/digital, 20in x 15in.   Little red ridding hood waiting for the bus to grandmas house.  decided against a actual shadowy figure.   I like the more implied danger giving buy the gang tag as compared to an actual figure.

I recently have been attending the life drawing sessions offered at the "Art Shop" in Springville, to help me keep up on my life drawing skills. This is my drawing from todays session 09/01/12. The life drawing class is open to the public 10 am- 1pm, and the cost is 10$ for three hours. so not to bad a price. a lot of it is do it yourself, but you can receive instruction and pointers if you ask for them.

here is a piece i did for fun of princess zelda.  a friend ask if i could draw her. i at the time i wasn't sure. so after looking at some photos and reference shots this is what i came up with. line drawing is done on paper and cleaned up in photo shop. the coloring was all done digitally in photoshop.

first real attempt at taking a pencil sketch and digitally inking and coloring it.
