Geometric Illustration with Volume

Wild geometry: from plane to volume

“Hello again! You have reached the end of this course, but you still have a long road of challenges and strokes. Do not forget that here you have me, in the forum of the course, if you need company. It was a pleasure to accompany you in each of the lessons, and that is why I want to thank you for choosing me as a guide and friend to illustrate. For your final project I want to remind you of the highest points of the course: • Always have your list of pillars at hand, you never know when a word from these can take you from terror to the blank sheet. • Draw 1, 2, 3, 8 or up to 30 poses a day, they are never enough. This will strengthen your sketching speed, and gradually it will make you discover your style! • You can trace images that you like, deform them again and again, discover through this exercise what geometries make up our day to day. • The tools are learned, here the important thing is that you go polishing your taste for colors and shapes, for this, again I have to tell you: practice, listen to music and see references that contribute to your aesthetic creation. • You can always get more juice from each illustration. When you finish with the volumes of your character and universe, touch up the color, add textures, noise and effects; You can even add typography to the composition. The idea is that in the end you feel that your drawing is strong enough to leave your computer. Think of a project based on your tastes, just as I relied on psychedelic rock and animals; Dare to break the schemes of this course, explore a little in yourself and don't be afraid to illustrate what you are most passionate about. If you like music, look for genres that motivate you to make a crazy character out of this reality. If food is your thing, give each ingredient a face and play with the geometries they offer you; All you have to do is ... Enjoy when drawing! Finally, I want to tell you that this experience that we have finished, leaves me with more desire to get incredible projects, no matter if there is a client or not, here all that matters is to take a while to what we like: Draw! Again I thank you, and I tell you that I am in the forum for what you need, beyond this project you can talk to me and if I can advise or give you feedback ... there I will be! Do not forget that our profession is nourished by comments, which is why I would like you to review what each partner is doing, and leave a message, whether it be advice, congratulations or input, I think he and everyone will thank you. Bye, see you in life! ”
