Inspiration: #Loish
I've been a huge fan of Lois Van Baarle, or simply known as Loish, for awhile now. She's an amazing Dutch digital artist who has worked for Lego, Guerrilla Games and Coca-Cola.I just started supporting her on Patreon , where she shares a lot of tutorials and more art work:)
Her work has been such an inspiration...something about her art work just speaks to me, probably because she was influenced a lot growing up by The Little Mermaid, and that is one of my all-time favourite Disney films!
I constantly turn to her two books, The Art of Loish and The Sketchbook of Loish. She also has a third one coming out soon:) |
Here are samples of her works (from her website):
Even though I'm a traditional artist and Loish's work is digital, I tend to do do a lot of studies of her works, mainly in my art journal:)
I did this with watercolour, colour pencils and aquapastels from the Jane Davenport line. |
same as above:) |

Hope you are having warmer days! It was so nice yesterday the ice cream man drove by. Naturally, I was out there with others wanting something. Of course, the prices are higher than ever before. I ended up giving a few extra bucks to the guy for gas. I had ice cream for breakfast this morning. Something I have done before. But don't worry I won't make it a habit.
the creation of beauty is art.
And good luck with digital illustrating too! It's fun you are trying new things to showcase your creativity. When my laptop died a while back I got a new one that's got a fancy stylus and I tried to use it to sign something digitally - ha! Gave up and just typed my name instead as man those things are tricky to use! definitely a learning curve!
Hope that your week is off to a good start! :)
