Title: Art stuff.
Post by: Hayley on December 03, 2013, 09:53:41 AM
So I haven't really done any "real" art in over a year. Designing signs has finally sapped my creativity it seems. But I thought I'd share a few things I did in the past.

This is a panting of a cast. Watercolor/ink/white pencil on cardboard.

Thank you. Actually I do get paid to do drawings. Just not what I want. I design signs and do the technical drawings to assist in the fabrication.

Decided to add a few more drawing.
Same cast as in pervious painting. Conté crayon for this one

Wow, once again I am impressed! I can see why you may feel that your talent is being wasted on signs for gosh sakes that is beautiful!

Wow, neon signage! That is so cool. I've seen some amazing sculpture pieces done in that medium. But then again, I find myself drawn to contemporary, abstract, and minimalist work more often that figurative stuff.

Oh yes there are quite a few talented neon artist. Sadly they are a dying breed and I know very little in terms of their skill. I understand the appreciation for abstract and minimalist art. I love minimalism as a whole. Actually translates very well into sign and logo design.

Another design. Have a alternative version with more muted tones of blue
