La Chica Caliente´

After many years of observing beautiful women through my telescope, I have discovered yet another beauty in the heavens above...

Space

This week's theme is "outer space" wich is befitting since it is 50th anniversary of first human flight in space.

Irate Pirates

So alright I know this is COLOUR doodle dump and these are cruddy black and white sketches, but that's all I had time for this week. Yarrrrrr!

Pirate hideouts

I wish if I could have done couple of more studies, but weekend was busy, good busy :)

Bubbles and Water

OK here;s me friggon ocean critter.

not as brainy as some of those jelly brains, yet this fello has it figured out. Avoid the bubbles and you don't get hiccups. Thats all one needs to know.

This week's theme is:

Due sunday evening.

Underwater Showmanship

So, it's been a good long while and it's about time we jumped back on this wagon.  I'm experimenting with bold, solid colours and keeping it simple as I re-enter the digital painting scene.  Hope you like.

Whales, jellyfish, death and pastels

Last time I posted on this blog I was doing mostly digital work. In the past year as some of you know I have switched to pastels. Messy, limited, fragile and absolutely fantastic. I really enjoyed this week's assignment. I started with sketches of whales, and ended up with luminescent jellyfish and deep sea irony.
All sketches are really small in size, mostly 5x3in
Go Color Doodle Dump!

And we are back

It has been a long time. It is perhaps a good time to give this blog some more lovin.

This week's theme is "Imaginary aquatic creature". Due date is next sunday evening, April 3rd.

WIld Stuff

As most of you know, I've recently returned from a trip to Africa and the

Maisai Mara. I just found this BBC compilation video from their show,

Big Cat Diaries, that I've been following for some time, a fine show, fun and informative. This vid, shows kind of how one feels about the Mara after having experienced it.

Hope you all enjoy the vid, get inspired, and lets get on the next assignment, some wild shit.

Wild beats, animals, any wildlife, be it a bee or a buffalo.

Loving Life on the Mara

Whifflebump

I know, I know...it seems unfinished. Well, it is. Truth is, my version of photoshop went haywire 1/2 way through the process and I was no longer able to revisit layers I had put down after working another one. So, after much frustration, I just threw on some extra layers to fix/fudge and this is what I got.
Cheers,
matt

Bes

So, here is a quick sketch done on artrage, I thought of all imaginary creatures I could, and realized, that all creature concepts in any film or book are recreations of previos ones, all we can imagine is something of a blend betweeen animal, human and now combinedd with robotics or technology. So I decided to go to antiquity for the creature. It is an Egyptian genie called Bes. A protector dwarf of pregnant women, infants, children and new families. Kind of a weird looking fellow with the power of a lion. Here he is sneaking through a marsh of papyrus checking on who needs his protection.

Anyway, just a quick scribble at colourdoodledump.

We are back!

That's right, after of long period of inactivity we are ready to continue with our regular postings.
This week's topic was picked by Matt, and it is.....roll the fanfare...... Imaginary Creature.
Let your imagination run wild with this one.

Couple of rules to keep in mind.

Due date for submissions is on every Sunday by 12am. Let's stay firm on this one, otherwise it is going to be a mess.
Don't post old artwork, only new artwork should be submitted. The idea is to challenge yourself with current and fresh thinking. What you did a year ago is irrelevant on this blog.
Let's keep this blog only for artwork that is created for the given topic. Use your private blog for all other artwork.
Have fun!

tried to make very cozy sunset feeling.

Angels or demons by Alex

So this is actually an older drawing I started in Cairo, but I thought it would be an interesting addition to the assignment of the female figure. Perhaps this old timer is contemplating the feminine figures silhouetted upon the dunes. Nothing perplexes and delights a man more then women. The water colour looking streeks are actually red wine, Omar Khayam to be precise, my favourite wine from Egypt. 

Extend it brotha!

Alright fellas, times are tough and busy for all of us looks like it. Lets extend this assignment for another week. It is a great topic and it would be a shame to miss it. So next Sunday lets come out in numbers and post some great artwork. I believe in you!!!
And three hip hip hoorays goes out to Adnan for being on time!
