Wasp Woman Insect Drinking Tea Fantasy - WIP stages

Wasp Woman Insect Drinking Tea Fantasy WIP stages

WIP stages of surreal Edwardian wasp woman

Created during August 2018, this illustration features a creature that appears to be have human and half wasp! It, or she, is enjoying a tea in elegant surroundings. The painting was partly influence by Gainsborough and other artists of the same era, although the woman is dressed in attire from the Edwardian era.
The illustration was created digitally. Initially it was drawn and then painted roughly on an android 'galaxy' pro with 'S' pen, as shown in the first two panels. When the design had got to a working solution, the file exported and work then continues on a W10 computer. 'Auto sketchbook pro' is used on both platforms, with final grading done within Photoshop, as shown in the last panel. 
The finished illustration can be seen on this link.

The panel above shows the original drawing, done in Photoshop and the final illustration, digitally painted in Photoshop, of this artwork called 'Cartoon Zombie Party'. It can be seen that some changes happened between the original concept and the final one, mainly bearing the setting with a tree and church originally featuring in the landscape. The drawing for the characters became tighter as the work continued, as part of the finished style of the art was to have a 'line' drawing included.
The illustration was done in September 2014, and can be seen here.

Cartoon Zombie Party

Cartoon Zombie Party

This digital image was done in September 2014 and illustrates a party being enjoyed by a number of cartoon zombies in a graveyard on Halloween. Originally the artwork was going to be drawn as 'vector' based drawn art with flat colours. In the end the whole thing was done in photoshop. The characters have a flattish, cartoony colouring to them but with some brushmarks. Unusually for me the background has not been painted but I have used photographs heavily treated for the trees, sky and grass. On top of the whole image 'grunge' effects have been placed to add some finishing sparkle.

I wanted the 'horror' to be as funny as possible to a general audience. The zombies have cartoony poses, worms coming out of them and eyeballs popping out. One zombie has had his head drop off while rising from the grave.

Baby Birthday Dragon with present

Baby Birthday Dragon with present 

A little cute baby dragon is happy on its birthday and has been presented with a wrapped present...

The illustration was painted in photoshop to A4 size during autumn 2013. I tend to paint dragons in a green colour so it fitted that the abstract background should complement it, colour-wise. I do feel that there is a slight Japanese feeling to the illustration.

Cartoon Fat Little Birthday Pig vector illustration

Cartoon Fat Little Birthday Pig vector illustration

This vector based illustration shows a fat, little pig celebrating his birthday. He has been presented a chocolate cake with a candle stuck in the chocolate icing on top, and can't wait to eat it in one mouthful. The artwork was created at A3 size during 2013. A basic drawing was first produced in Photoshop with flat colours painted in. This was then traced in a vector programme with colour samples taken from the rough, pixel image.
