Getting Sloppy
Last night I was doing some mindless sketching while watching tv. Just pencil and paper at that point.
This morning I decided to ink and color them for the fun of it.
They are not bad for what they are, quickly inked and colored as it was just meant for something to loosen me up before I go into some serious work. They are a bit on the sloppy side but they served their purpose and I think of them as just another way to explore possibilities.
Customarily I usually give a client three to four preliminary sketches which in the publishing industry are known as thumbnail sketches. These can run from very loose pencil drawings to tight colored sketches to give an art director an idea of what the final art will look like. This process can go back and forth a number of times until both the art director and the artist have nailed down a solid composition. It's work.
The first two shown here have a point to them while I have no idea what the last one means!
I just named it "Wacky" when I filed it. Well, that's all I got for now. Hoping for a productive day.
