Sketch of The Day: 31/03/2015: Making Faces

Just a peek at some of the things I do for practice. I draw ovals on  piece of paper and create a face out of them. I try to make each face have a different look and personality. I may use them in the future as illustration ideas for stories.

What kind of personality do you think each face has? Let me know in the comments section below.

Sketch of The Day: 27/03/2015: Arinna, The Sun Goddess



"...all that's best of dark and bright 
Meet in her aspect and her eyes: 
Thus mellowed to that tender light 
Which Heaven to gaudy day denies."

The Radiant Child

"The Radiant Child. Constantly dreaming. Her head stays in the stars..."
 
I've always wanted to create fantasy illustrations for children's books, I can see this piece being in a book for tween girls, maybe.

Suzy, The Socouyant



Imagining the Soucouyant as a super villain or maybe an anti-hero. Perhaps she wants to be good, but is destined to be bad

"In Caribbean folklore, The Soucouyant (Sukuya), also called Old Hag, is a supernatural being who has made a pact with the devil to be able to change herself into all kinds of different forms. At night she sheds her human skin and changes into a ball of fire or any kind of animal and casts spells on people to turn them into animals also. She has to slip back into that skin before dawn breaks and the cock crows, otherwise she will not be able to get back into it"
