Sylph: Digital Sketch (2013)

This is a high-level digital sketch drawn in Adobe Photoshop (@Photoshop), using my @Wacom Cintiq Companion (@CintiqCompanion). WIP.

Update: My good friend Dan Landrum, artist and designer, brought this image to life on Google+, by pairing it with the perfect ee cummings’ poem.

Many thanks, Dan,  for elevating this image with such a rich association:

in time of daffodils (who know

the goal of living is to grow)

forgetting why, remember how

 

in time of lilacs who proclaim

the aim of waking is to dream,

remember so (forgetting seem)

 

in time of roses (who amaze

our now and here with paradise)

forgetting if, remember yes

 

in time of all sweet things beyond

whatever mind may comprehend,

remember seek (forgetting find)

 

and in a mystery to be

(when time from time shall set us free)

forgetting me, remember me

 

~ee cummings

Gesture Drawing: Figure 1

Figure-1 (c)1983, by Terre Britton

Figure-1 (c)1983, Conté on paper.

In our college life-drawing class we’d begin with quick gestures before getting in to the 30 or 60 minute poses. This is one of those gestures.

It’s also a drawing that has seen a few miles–wrinkles retained for sake of character.

Enjoy!
