So - after a long overdue visit, I think it's time for me to write a new post! Things have been hectic in my life for the past while to say the least, but I missed this thing. With that said, I've got a short blog for everyone tonight (maybe two or three if I stay awake), about a few latest inspirations.
Recently, I have been trying to push my boundaries with painting, and began playing with watercolour (which I hadn't done in 4 years, and was never good at to begin with!). While attempting to work with this new and tricky media, I had browsed through some artists who work with it as well to gain some inspiration. The artist I most recently came across is Daniel Mackie, who at one point created works mainly on the computer, such as myself, working with photoshop. After ten years he put the computer design to the side to focus more on what he really loved to do, which was working traditionally with pencil and watercolour. I stumbled upon a few of his works online just the other day and liked what I saw, so I took the time to look him up which took me to his website and online portfolio which you can view for yourself
here. Daniel has worked with a countless number of clients, and his works of art have provided solutions for design material such as editorial and advertising works.
I also recommend you take a look at his
blog, where you can get a great insight and see some truly remarkable illustrations and process work.
Here are a few of my favourite works of his displayed below.
