animal skateboard

I am super pumped about this new skateboard project. I transferred the drawing tonight and will start the painting tomorrow. Gee, I haven't painted since Thesis, which feels like forever ago. But, I bought new paintbrushes because mine turned to crap from abusing them last semester.

For this project, I am using a simplified palette of blues and oranges. I have always loved a turquoise blue with a poppy orange. MMMM. I changed around my initial idea of doing muted tones due to the skateboard itself being this great blue-green color that I fell in love with.

Here is my sketch:




more to come soon!
