Early Sept Studies + Notes + Video Process

OKAY so I thought this would be a little follow up of the How to Study guide but this wasn’t planned at all lol.

When I saw a decent looking pose,...

I initially started it for a homework- to do an illustration based on an emotion. So I wanted to do a series of clouds based on emotion and push the colors as much as I could.

The first few ones were practice and I don't like the...

Sketches and Mood Boards
