I've heard a few queries as to whether I want to #Livestream paintings again.

Short answer: Busy upgrading my sound equipment so you can actually hear me speak.

Long answer: Toss your Art Livestream preferences my way using this poll!

So in case anyone was unclear on why I was studying random disembodied parts of -real- humans, it's to get better at painting -imaginary- humans

Pretty pleased with progress so far, but there's still so much left to learn!

I did a small series on borked fantasy tropes at one point. Here is the first one.

"The reverse mermaid tries to warn sailors away from dangerous rocky shores, but alas, the sailors are compelled to sail closer by the reverse mermaid's supple legs"

The best thing about the #pokemonau OC meme is that NOTHING changes for Warlock'd...Margo just blimps out 😂

Really getting into the wrinkles and curves

Now I'm practicing mouths! In particular I'll be looking at how teeth align vs. lips.

Nose compilation! Loads of stunning schnozzes

Up next: Mouths

#mastoart #creativetoot #photorealism #noses #lifestudy #art #creative

A nose with an interesting history!

#nose #creativetoot #mastoart #creative #art #digital #painting #photorealism

Majestic nose!

#nose #photorealism #lifestudy #mastoart #creativetoot #digital #painting

This is closer to the kind of style I think I'd like to eventually capture, and I don't think I'll be incorporating as much pores (but they're fine for practice)

I snuck some iterative process on this here: http://hannahmcgill.tumblr.com/post/174732333244/new-logo-and-snapshots-of-my-development-process#notes

On the current professional graphic design practice of pixel-perfecting:

1. Not everything NEEDS to be iconography, guys...

2. It leads to blocky, mathematical aesthetic that's frankly nothing special

3. Why are we acting like we're enslaved to the tech that displays pixels, it should be the other way around!
