Romantic Dinosaurs in Love

Romantic Dinosaurs in Love

This digital illustration, of two happy and romantic dinosaurs in love, was created in June 2013. It is drawn in a vector based programme, and output at A3 size. The two cartoon dinosaurs, not based on any particular type, are shown against a large pink heart, surrounded by smaller ones. The colours of the lovers are designed to be gender specific, and appealing, and the cuddling pose shows their passion for one another.

Two Romantic cats....for St Valentine's Day

Two Romantic cats in love, by a tree.

This is obviously created for st Valentines Day.
The colour version was painted first, in photoshop to a A4 size in january 2011. I was quite pleased about the way it turned out, and looks quite cute. I think that the bows do add a lot to the cuteness and help to define the two sexes.
The black and white image was done about two weeks later. It has been done for presentation at a local arts society and needed to be B/W, with no grey tones, for easy reproduction in the news letter. It is a tracing, in photoshop again A4, of the colour image, and has come out quite well and still retains the character of the cats.

from the website...
Two romantic cats are shown in this digital illustration, sitting together by a tree. It always seems appropriate to portray a male cat as black and white in colour, and a female one as white. The coloured bows help with their sweetness and their sex identification. I wanted to have a soft feeling through the painting so it is set in the evening light.
This was painted in photoshop in 2011.
