We often hear people say that "there is no word to describe my current mood", and we also hear people say that "words have no temperature". Most of these themes expressed in Rowley's illustrations revolve around our indescribable feelings, such as the love that many people can't say, or the sadness that they don't know how to express. These far-reaching beautiful pictures may bring you some unprecedented reflections. Now, let's look at these unique illustrations.
"I just hope you can help me, but I don't know if it will hurt you. 」
"You lit up the way I should go in the future, but you also made me lose myself. 」
"I want to be closer to you, but my responsibility prevents me from doing so. 」
"Love should be immediate, the person who loves you won't always be there, and you can't always be with the person you love. 」
"Nevertheless, what we have is still unequal. 」
"Some people are close at hand, but a simple hug is hard to cross the world. 」
"Even if you have broken my heart, I am willing to pay for you, no regrets. 」
"If you are doomed to be black and blue, being with you is still the happiest thing in the world. 」
"Cherish every moment. 」
"It is necessary to dig out your heart and lungs, let you stop and look back? 」
"Tombstone not only makes people mourn, but also reminds you all the time that he is really gone. 」
The last picture, I can't see anything at all. What do you think the author wants to express? If you like this article, or find it practical or interesting, please share it with more people!
How does the illustration tutorial start a series of illustrations? I want to draw a set of 12 series illustrations as a calendar for my beloved friends, which is a small dream that I have been trying to realize since I studied illustrations. This flag has been tossing and turning for nearly two years. It was finally realized in early 2020.
At the moment I finished painting, I felt a little sense of accomplishment and excitement. At this point, I finally got rid of the trouble of not creating a series of illustrations. Although all the pictures are not perfect, there is still a long way to go in the future, but the end of this series is also a great encouragement for an illustrator Xiao Bai.
I also want to record my growth and creative process here, hoping to bring some inspiration to friends who have the same troubles.
First, determine the theme.
I choose yoga as the theme of this series. I always wanted to practice the human body at first, but I didn't know where to start. I accidentally saw many friends who love sports in the circle of friends, and posted good morning fitness pictures every morning. One by one graceful figure is particularly charming. So as long as I see good pictures, I will save them. At that time, I didn't know I was going to paint this series, just because I love beautiful things.
Second, find a reference map.
When I decided to create with yoga as the theme, I found that my picture reserve was insufficient 12, so I searched around the Internet and finally found 12 pictures that satisfied me. Search websites: Bing, Baidu, Pinterest, etc.
Third, draw a draft outline
This step is drawn according to the bone structure-filling the meat-putting on clothes after finding the picture.
Fourth, think about composition.
After painting the main characters, I began to consider the scene, and I felt dissatisfied with several designs. It's too difficult for me to draw them. Just at this time, I saw someone sharing in Weibo: inspired by the great creative way of painting small objects, I can try boldly without sticking to the inherent form. So I decided on the composition of vases, cups and people.
Fifth, find a color reference.
This part has been tangled for a long time, and there are many favorite color matching series. How to make a choice? Because I want to show warm colors, warm colors and bright colors in the picture, I finally chose the color matching of my favorite illustrator's works as a reference, but later I also adjusted it.
Sixth, draw the first picture.
According to the previous steps, I drew the first picture, and I can find that my color is obviously darker than the reference picture. This is because in the post-processing, I accidentally tried the effect made by a brush, but found that it was better than the original color, so I later had a different color scheme. Try more and there will always be new surprises!
Seven. Drawing of other pictures
Similarly, find the elements you want to draw and deal with the scene-line drawing-coloring-post-effect. At this point, the rest of the screen output will come naturally!
Eight, make a small video with clips.
Nine, send Weibo, update the collection.
This series of pictures is over. Although the introduction was just a short article, it took me nearly two months to actually operate it. Intermittent other work has affected the progress, but I draw a few strokes every day. This creative process also gave me great inspiration. Don't worry, blindly see how fast others finish their works. That is also the result of others' accumulation and precipitation for many years, or others are just gifted.
And I, as an ordinary white, need a long time to draw a series of pictures. I accepted that I am an ordinary person, an ordinary fortune, and everything is difficult. But even so, I enjoy the process of filling the canvas with strokes every day, which is enough. Of course, I am very satisfied with the final result.
Finally, I still want to end my sharing with a bowl of chicken soup.
The name of this series is: be the best yourself in 2020.
That's what I keep telling myself.
No matter what the outside world is like, no matter what others are like.
The only thing we can control is our own life.
It is enough to be the best yourself in 2020!
May we all get what we want.
Where there is time, there are people dancing.
As long as there is art, life will not be deserted. ____
