revising old art

While going through my files, I found some old pictures that i still really like, but I fell like there are to many things wrong with the color and compostion. So I sat down again, an worked on them again, here are two examples:

old:



new:



And the other:

old:


new:

I dug out another file out of my archive of unfinished stuff. This was actually the first thing I tried out with illustrator, it turned out, this was way to ambitious for a first try. But I like how it turned out:

New girls!

I'm always trying out new styles, some of these experiments work out, others dont, I'm pretty happy with these though.
This was inspired by a good friend of mine, which is indeed a bookworm with style. I used to do latin translations with her, which was always fun, because we were both eager to find the really truelly correct translations. She is actually a red head, this was inspired more by her character.
Photoshop on a pencil sketch:




This one was actually waiting to be finished for half a year, it had awful colors but now I changed them and am quite happy with them.
Vector forms, Photoshop gradients and colors:

I was playing aurond with vectors in Photoshop, which can be a lot of fun. I like how you can combine the intuitiveness of Photoshop-brushes and the exacteness of vectorshapess. This is what came out, I might actually do more in that style:

The last couple of weekends was really nice, so me and my boyfriend drove around with our bikes in berlin and did a little lifedrawing in a nice little cafe near our house. here are some of the results:







This one was done in the train:

You can't manufacture Inspirado

I always find it hard to get inspired for a new picture. But I find it easier to doodle, so I always doodle hoping to get new ideas for pictures. Sometimes I work with photos (deviantart has an amazing photo-gallery) and fashion magazines, sometimes I just try to put down the stuff that comes to my mind.

The first three were done with photoref:





And these came strait from my head:

Hello World!

Finally I decided to get my own blog. For a little introduction I thought I'd post some stuff I find representative. I've always loved vector art, for the clearness of the shapes, so here is some of my vector stuff.










I'm not the kind of artist that focuses to much on a special style, because I feel there is so many other interesting stuff to explore. So there will be more and different stuff soon.
