Logo sketches…

Made some sketches just for fun on a logo for Växjö Country Roots festival.
This is not the official logo just my suggestion how it could look like, my idea was one star for each artist, clever, right? ;)

The guys that are working with the festival is doing a great job and I think the festival gonna be awesome…
See more about the festival at their facebook page… Växjö Country Roots Festival @ Facebook

Long time no see…

Yesterday I worked my last day at HCL / Gtech, a little scary but yet exciting to see where I’ll end up.
I’m really looking forward to spend time working on my portfolio and looking for a new job.

Found this lovely weim-puppy, Ason Duke on the Weimaraner group on FB and I just had to do a portrait of him.
Here’s the first sketch / wip.

See Ya’ll

Between work, freelancing, job searching, banjo playing and everything else I try to get things done that I had in mind for a long time. The Weimaraner “logo” I had in mind for years and now I finally made a sketch, I just love the silhouette of a pointing weim. The thought is to make some prints and maybe some t-shirts for the weim lover, but we’ll see about that, anyway, here’s some sketches.

tired and out of focus..

and think I have to rest up a lil, so inspired of James Gurney’s blog post about Eugène Burnand’s World War I Portraits I started on a portrait study  training my portrait skills. So here we go, wip1 of this one, another bed painting, night folks.

Working on the sad girl…

adult / children proportions
today I’m developing the sad girl painting to a full figure painting for the upcoming Skeleton Birth video.
Found an interesting site with anatomy drawing tutorials that I wanted to share.
It’s in moments like this I really miss teaching digital and traditional arts… but who knows maybe one day I’ll be back teaching.

But now it’s sleeping time. Night folks!

bedtime painting….

swahn4lately I’ve been painting instead of watching movies before sleep, every night I paint for 10 – 15 minutes just before I close my eyes. It’s really fun since I can spend those minutes painting whatever I want. Lately I’ve been kinda busy, working with the graphics for an Iphone application and doing some more work for Skeleton birth on my spare time. Anyhow, it’s fun fun painting wildlife:)
