Finally, West

Lauren Elyse S. October 23, 2017
finally, west.jpg

So I've been back in California a few months but I feel like I've just gotten here as I'm only now finding time to create. Finally being able to get this painting onto canvas after thinking about it for a year and a half has been a relief.

"Dark Seas" . Starting to think about this project again. It began three years ago with Inktober, did the bulk of it last year and can't believe another year is lapsing since I worked on it (though it took so much out of me I don't think I created much for months following 30 days of creating a fully fleshed out illustration every single day that also tied into a storyline. Was dead for a while afterwards). I have a few paintings / projects I'm juggling at the moment so things are going to be all over the place in terms of style / mediums for the rest of the year, but really, how is that even any different from any other day of creating for me so, yeah. Things and stuff as usual over here. . . . . . . #darkmysteries #laurenelyseart #illustration #procreate #stormysea #ship #graphicnovel #digitalillustration #digitalart
Best Laid Plans would be the name of the straight to tv movie about my life. Lived that cross country train life last week, meant to use the time to work on my second book illustrations, a few sketches of my time spent trying to just be able to draw on a wobbly train came out instead. The second page bottom wierdo is still in progress. Your eyes get a bit glassy after two days of little sleep and you wake up in Chicago on the 4th of July to an overheated zoo (complete with smells) of a train station with trump saying stupid shit as per on the tv while you want to puke. All in all though it was a good time. I'll have more travel sketches finished soon? (Remmeber - best laid plans) . . . . . . . #travel #travelsketchbook #artistsletchbook #digitalillustration #digitalart #digitalsketchbook #amtrak #laurenelyseart #procreate
4am. My insomnia is always dominant when I'm thinking of art, new works - reasons why I take breaks from creating these days. It's enough to drive me crazy (I kind of like it but sometimes I have to be a responsible, functioning human.) I have 6 solid days ahead of me, however, where I'll be completely without distractions and able to immerse myself in my work. & I'm effing excited. I'm proud as hell of the body of work I created this past October for Inktober. I've got the framework for a story/book laid out around it and I plan on focusing a lot on this again for my mini art intensive time away. If you want to see all I created for this project so far, check out the Dark Mysteries page on my website. I'm ready to delve back into the dark stuff, it balances me out. . . . . . #illustration #procreate #graphicnovel #laurenelyseart #hands #medieval
So how's it look? No really, I'm asking. I haven't done a piece that depended this heavily on precise perspective for almost ten years... and I'm working from almost no reference. I'm rusty and those top cutouts of the arch were a fun little mind f on top of it. Does it read convincingly? The thing about perspective is that one tiny misstep can throw the whole illusion. So, thoughts? The vanishing point is around about the middle row, middle left panel. This is my prep sketch before I transfer all these shapes to the panels and plan the next step - how all the candles will work. I'm super excited to have this project back rolling again but very mimdful of how it needs to be precise but look effortless to work. . . . . . . . #perspective #sketch #wip #procreate #mughalarchitecture #trompeloeil
The lackluster process that will lead to one hell of an awesome painting (I hope.) . . . . . . #wip #sketch #artistprocess
