art school

Remember art school? Learning about composition, Rule of thumb and colour theory?
With my memory, I don't remember much myself, except the useful bits. Art should be fun and art school should be fun!

With that in mind I'd like to share some of my knowledge with everyone. Whether it fits any curriculum is very doubtful, but hopefully it will cover what you'd like to know. My plan is to use the medium of video and the internet and to cover the very basics of drawing, through to portraiture and cartoons.

Look at the image above and you'll see just four of the many stages involved in creating my entry into the 2000AD Art Stars competition. What is each stage? What medium did I use? How do I paint gold? (Secret: I didn't paint it, I used a coloured pencil tool!).

Find out this and much more, in the not too distant future...

I could use YOUR HELP though, what content would you like to see? What would you like to learn? Let me know in the comments and, hopefully, I'll tailor a lesson to answer your need!

Don't be shy, get in touch and I'll see what I can do.
