First sign of autum

We are now seeing the first signs of autumn the most colourful of the seasons up here on our mountain, and it reminds me of what colour is all about.Its all around us we just need to really look. When you see a yellow rose in the garden or a little red plane or some motorbikes parked in the street if you look closely you will see that it's made up of numerous yellow or red colour hues caused by reflections highlights and shadows.
So to all my students when we sketch a product really study the colour hues that make it that colour.
Looking forward to a CREATIVE semester and welcome to all my new students.

Masterclass student concepts

For the second masterclass session Wacom Australia kindly helped out with the loan of a new Cintiq 24HD for the students to trial with some very positive feed back and some great results. I have included some of the students work.....progress has been fast with the almost one on one tuition

Car sketching masterclass

The first all day session went well and all students worked hard and produced some great work.We mainly concentrated on form,colour and the stance of the vehicle.
