So, I was googling like, 70s slang to help with a pun name because wow! I'm jumping on the band wagon of making a sona/oc bc yeah. Whatever.

Anyway, I was looking at some slang phrases for inspiration and um....

I have no idea if it was intentional but if it was HOLY CRAP! This was so clever I would have NEVER put this together if I wasn't looking for slang.

Anyway, make with this what you will. I'm just the messenger! (OC will be posted on my artblog @artbrewer )

PleinAirpril- Project A (5/4/23)

For the last couple weeks I’ve been traveling around Europe, so I’ve been pretty removed from thinking about the Independent Projects but scrolling Instagram today I realized that PleinAirpril has just rolled around the corner!

PleinAirpril is an art challenge hosted by an online community of artists called Warrior Painters, which focuses primarily on environment painting. Since 2017, the challenge has taken place during the month of April, where artists are tasked to draw and post one plein air painting every day. Plein air is a type of painting done primarily outside and from observation, usually surrounding environment but for PleinAirpril artists are allowed to draw from reference photos as well.

In past years, Warrior Painters has organized events like a prize competition and other incentives for people to stay motivated but this year they’ve organized a collaboration with Artbrew, a Korean art community. Together, they’re offering 6 weekly demos with professional background artists for artists to follow along and learn from, which I think is a really awesome opportunity.

I’ve followed the PleinAirpril challenge on social media for several years now, but I’ve never gotten around to participating myself; partially due to a lack of confidence and also a lack of time, since usually April is right in the middle of finals season at Pratt. But since I’m studying at UAL this semester and we’re allowed to choose literally anything for our SSP Independent Projects, it’s the perfect time and reason to try this challenge! I’m excited to do it for the first time, especially because I’ve been more motivated to turn to visual development and aim for breaking into the animation industry.

I’ve already seen some really inspiring pieces from others participating in the challenge, and found some new favorite artists to follow such as Fanny HS and Kaye Bin.

I really like the way Fanny uses color and light. The rich saturated colors paired with the darker and less saturated ones play off each other so well, and create a really lovely contrast. I also like the way they draw foliage, which feels a bit gloopy. I love that it strikes a balance between the details that are shown and the details that are omitted, helping to not overwhelm the eye.

I like Kaye Bin’s environment art because they’re able to create such a tangible mood and atmosphere in their pieces. I’m really impressed that they’re able to balance a lined and painted style in the same piece, because that’s always been a big struggle for me in deciding which style to draw in, so it’s really cool that they can combine both. I also like the people that are drawn in, giving the whole scene some life and energy. It feels almost like a film still, where we’re walking right behind the character in the foreground and captured them mid-sigh.

I’d love to be able to create some of the same feelings in my own work, and learn from artists who have had a lot more drawing experience than me.

It’s been a strange week in a strange year that is 2020! How could @surfer_magazine close?I still really don’t understand where the surfing industry is heading. This cover is a really special one to me of @timmyturnerferal in the wilds of Indonesia! ••••••📷©Childsphotos I remember when I shot this image it was worthy of a cover! I hand carried these rolls of film to Singapore to process to see what gold I had scored. Then knew what I had and couriered the gold to @grantellis1 at Surfer mag! Thanks for running it on the cover mate! It will always remind me why I lived and loved Indonesia 🇮🇩 the people the waves and the wild times. Thanks to all the passionate editors&journalists @grantellis1 @photomurray @chris_mauro @joelerson @brendon_thomas @samgeorgesurf @mattgeorge_bali @todprod @seano888 the photographers and writers that gave me support and stoke through the years. Thanks to @artbrewer @jeffdivinephotographer @tedgrambeau @joliphotos @brianbielmann for mentoring me. I lived and breathed my dream! 60 years the magazine inspired us to surf, travel, dream and reminded us why we are surfers! •••••••••••• @surfer_magazine #Australia #surferphotos #surf #surfermagazine #surfphotography #surfers #surfersparadise #surfermag #cntraveller #surfphotography #surfart #surftravel #childsphotos #waves #wavesart #surfersdream @jeremyschluntz @rictator #thankyousurfer (at Indonesia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGI88WkFvTZ/?igshid=13hwd8huixrz4

Progress Tutorials (11/5/23)

Both of these two paintings are from the neighborhood I grew up in! Collecting reference photos made me realize that I wish I had taken more photos of Seattle when I was still there. I think there's a special kind of love that goes into drawing your home and where you've grown up, and I wish I'd gotten more pictures to draw from before coming to London! It's definitely something that I want to invest time in when I go back home for the summer, scouting out places that hold a lot of memories for me and trying to commit that to visual form.

Day 19 was a kind of ambitious painting for me because I was trying to capture all the architectural details that I could see. I think I'm still a bit unsure when it comes to architecture and trying to balance structure versus personality/feeling, but it was definitely good practice all the same.

For Day 20, I followed along with Lea Pinto's Warrior Painters demo. Lea's demo was really interesting because I could tell she wasn't used to speaking about her process that much or talking while drawing, but she had such a wealth of information and tips to share! I learned so much about difference tricks in Photoshop, and more importantly some of Lea's though process and logic behind the choices she makes.

Lea was one of the background artists for JIBARO, one of the episodes of Love, Death, and Robots, an animated adult tv series streaming on Netflix. I'd actually watched this episode before so it was amazing to hear her talk about how she designed and painted some of the scenes from the episode.

I was super shocked to hear that Lea generally uses a mouse with the lasso tool for 90% of her painting process, and she explained that she feels more comfortable using it as opposed to a tablet. I don't think I could ever work like her but it really goes to show that it doesn't matter what your art tools are, as long as it works for you and you're able to use them how you want to.

I'm pretty pleased with how my own painting came out, because I was able to accomplish several things that'd I'd been aiming for in the same piece! I increased the saturation and vibrancy from the original reference, added my own slanted perspective for more character, and was able to integrate the overall color palette with the primaries red, blue, and yellow.

My color sense has definitely gotten stronger since the start of this challenge, and I can also see how my paintings have gained a more confident feeling to them. I really believe that getting a lot of mileage in drawing is one of the best things you can do to improve quickly, and I'm glad that I can already see gains within just a little over two weeks.

For Day 23, I followed along with Yeonji Rhee for her Warrior Painters demo. I thought Yeonji's demo was really informative, and I could really tell that she had confidence in teaching and explaining art concepts to other people. Her demo was a bit like a lesson almost, focused on how to use grays effectively within an image.

I'm super thankful for the Warrior Painters and Artbrew for their demo collab series. Every time I've followed along with one of them, I end up feeling reinvigorated from the new knowledge I've gained and inspired by the amazing artists leading the demos. I think this pattern of creating and learning, creating and learning is a really effective one for me because sometimes I get too caught up in learning and fail to actually apply any of those lessons to my work.

Almost all the paintings that I've done for PleinAirpril are reference photos I've taken personally (besides the demo sessions), but a few images are also from my friend Naomi! Naomi recently traveled to Iceland and took some amazing photos on film.

When they finally got developed, I was really blown away by the atmospheric quality of her photos, and was inspired to try and create that feeling in my own artwork.

For Day 25, I followed along with Kaye Kang's Warrior Painters demo. Kaye had some helpful color editing tips which I found pretty interesting. She said that she never works directly with an unaltered reference image, and will always adjust the colors in Photoshop first to enhance a certain type of lighting or atmosphere.

Usually, when I paint colors that don't follow the reference exactly, I just use my own color sense to adjust them as I paint but Kaye's method seems really helpful for more unnatural colors or combinations that I'm not as comfortable with.

I liked the photo that Kaye picked for the demo because I got to think about how to simplify the signs and details of the storefront while still having them be convincing.

In this next painting, I applied the Photoshop techniques I learned from Kaye's demo to create a really pink lighting with greenish shadows, inspired by one of my favorite illustrations ever by @quruiqing on Twitter.

I did try experimenting with an inverse of that coloring, with green lighting and pink shadows but it didn't exactly fit the atmosphere I was going for so I decided to ditch it.

I had a lot of fun with the pinks and purples of this painting, and definitely want to play around with strong/unnatural lighting more in future works!
