Summer work

So uni has started back up again and let me tell you it's all go all the time and it's currently only the third day. For the first blog post of the year I'm going to show you some stuff I did over the summer which I'm proud of, then some interesting news...

Over the summer I mainly spent my time practicing my digital painting skills as my Photoshop skills were non existent. The majority of these paintings are portraits of actors, celebrities or just life models, however I have worked on painting some animals for practice. 


As you can see this first one is Angelina Jolie which I spent a great deal of time on as this was my first ever digital painting in colour. Hair is a pain but I love it either way.

Leslie Knope a character from Parks and Recreation (a show which I am heavily in love with) is one of my favourite characters and here she is in my style. 



 This is one of my favourite and most loved pieces of work. I spent so much time on getting this one right and I think I achieved that. I chose to experiment with my style in this painting and I'm super pleased on how it came out in the end. I don't know whether you've heard of a show called Wentworth but it is one of the best gripping and intense drama's I've ever seen. Please go give it a watch! 

 This is a painting I did of Ali Micheal, it was actually my first digital portraits.

After seeing Jurassic World I once more became obsessed with dinosaurs and wanted to paint a t rex of course so here she is. 
 I don't usually paint animals so I decided to practice. This is Marge the cutest pitbull ever. I really enjoyed this painting. 
So that's what I've been doing over summer and now for the big announcement... 

this blog is moving to my new website and blog made with Wix and it's actually fab I hope you all go take a look as that will be where I will be publishing all my new blog posts for the final year.
