The first one was started after watching project runway with Connie this weekend. I did it without photo reference and found it kinda lacking, so I did another using photo reference. The first one's outline is done with a micron ink pen, the second in graphite. Both are colored with guache in my moleskin. I gave the second chicken a little photoshop darkening around the edges of the image, but other than that they're all hand done. :) <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_llzlpPQm1ms/TKokJU6ngSI/AAAAAAAAAJM/YZwCH_STAAA/s1600/chick002.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_llzlpPQm1ms/TKokJU6ngSI/AAAAAAAAAJM/YZwCH_STAAA/s320/chick002.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524267635575324962" border="0" /></a>Celia Marie Bakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00707109268050716260noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8108958390655629143.post-3021968740193849222010-08-25T12:14:00.001-07:002010-08-26T10:46:39.835-07:00Starbuck the Thoroughbred<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_61Yl2y8SfsU/THaoOgRksOI/AAAAAAAAAx0/wCZBu5UgYww/s1600/Starbuck3text.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 160px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_61Yl2y8SfsU/THaoOgRksOI/AAAAAAAAAx0/wCZBu5UgYww/s320/Starbuck3text.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509776161269657826" /></a><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_61Yl2y8SfsU/THVtyPKaj_I/AAAAAAAAAxc/uKZZC1TlBmA/s1600/Starbuck3.jpg"></a><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_61Yl2y8SfsU/THVoNSFd_QI/AAAAAAAAAxE/RgHCy17t-M8/s1600/Starbuck3.jpg"></a><div style="text-align: center; "><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Starbuc</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">k</span></div><div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_61Yl2y8SfsU/THVoTDR1tcI/AAAAAAAAAxM/6BKWjYdUhB4/s1600/Starbuck2.jpg"><br /></a></div></div><div style="text-align: center; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">I started this illustration for </span><a href="http://illustrationology.blogspot.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Illustrationology</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> over a month ago, but for some weird reason I never felt like it was any good or even worth finishing.

Usually when I want to do something quick and fun I choose watercolor, but I started this in my moleskin. As much as I love my watercolor, it's just too wimpy for sufficient coverage on my moleskin's paper. Guache's opaque quality proudly stands up to it.
