Description Happy Halloween!
Illustration for an upcoming book from SQP and rather appropriate for Halloween.
Took much longer than I anticipated - obviously I wasn't drinking enough magic caffeine )

Pencil sketch on paper, painted in photoshop.

Excellent. Coffee is indeed my magic brew and my best friends magic brew too. And I usually get that expression after my first sip.

Cheers! Not sure what a 'paths assignment' is though - does it have anything to do with coffee?

Guazzo In reply to Loopydave [2010-10-30 16:29:14 +0000 UTC]

Haha, unfortunately, no. Paths are another word for the masks you make with the pen tool. I have a class assignment to illustrate a still-life of reflective objects on PS using primary the pen tool... I'm pretty terrible with PS, but I try. xD

Great work !!! ... did u take any ref. for this ? & I would like to see it's sketch too

Loopydave In reply to kios18 [2010-11-13 14:43:45 +0000 UTC]

I actually sketched this one up as a bunch of different sketches. Drew up the figure on one piece of paper, the table on another, the mouse on another still Not the best way to work, but I was running behind on the job and started painting her first and then drew up the furnature to match the right perspective. As I said, not the right way to do these things!
Cheers!

That's me on the inside when I drink coffee in the a.m. ... not so much on the outside. I'm not a morning person. It is a very beautiful picture though. The shading of her skin and light on the robe, so amazing! I love the mouse!
