and now for something completely different

Sat Dec 12, 2009, 3:53 PM
during a volley of research i have done lately on hand drawn and vector art.. i have decided to dedicate my work to these styles. I find hand drawn work much more personal and style based, compared to photomanipulation and photoshop HEAVY pieces, especially after seeing at least one piece a day on abduzeedo's daily inspiration, filled to the brim with light flares, glows and flying stock images. I want to work on things much more personal, abstracts with much more meaning, typography, portraiture (mainly sketched with a developed style and slightly traced i cant draw living forms for crap lol) and even some installations which im thinking about trying for my current graphic design project

blame :iconzim-dez: for that they inspire me so much to try craft and installations

I really enjoy drawing in my spare time.. and most people online and in real life.. mainly my design class.. prefer my drawn style to my current photoshop digital skills.

I want to further myself as an artist.. so the next few submissions i make will be mainly and drawn, watercolour and some vector when i get the chance. I will also upload some things i created during my self branding project!

so i hope you all like my sudden change in pursuit, and i hope i can be as good as some of my favourite vector digital artists and designers right now!

and for those of you that don't know what artists inspired me to make this decision.. checck out their portfolios!
