News

I'm moving back to Norway :O
Mostly because..I got an amazing job over there as a games concept artist!!! :faint: Something I am thrilled about but also ..still finding it hard to believe. I've wanted to do a job like this for a pretty damn long time, and now it's actually going to happen I'm a bit freaked out..

But Im also very very happy and relieved :D this solves alot of problems! I will finally get to live with my fiance, which is awesome- the long distance thing has really been driving us both insane and has hit us pretty hard in the pocket- international phone calls/plane/train fares..all pretty expensive stuff! But not for much longer :)

It's going to be so weird living in Oslo again. Hopefully it will be better now my fiance and I both have decent jobs this time, Im just a bit nervous about it all. It's a big deal! I'm pretty sure I've forgotten loads of Norwegian and I'll have to try and re-learn it all. I'll never be able to pronounce it properly..33..lol. But hey, the spoken language at my new company is English, and there'll be loads of foreigners like me there. So it won't be so bad :D

No more smelly London, no more rush hour on the tubes, no more lonliness! Wooo!
And I get to draw cool stuff!! :dance: :boogie: :dance:

Hopefully this news explains why I haven't updated much lately =P Life kind of gets in the way sometimes, and there's still so much to sort out...




Sketch of the Week

This weeks theme: Summertime
Deadline: Sunday 18th May

Sketches submitted so far:
:icontheovercoat:

Im really hoping more people will take part this time as the deadline is so long! Almost 2 weeks to do a sketch. Come on ppl!
It can be as moody and non-summery as you like..what does summertime mean to you? (Im thinking of the beach scene in Sweeney Todd..lol!) then again if you like shiny happy sunny things nows your chance to express it..

Who's in so far:

`touchedvenus
=KoolGal14
~redotaku
*IgnisAlatus
*WolfenAmphithere
~MonaLovely
*sonicheroesrox
~enistoja
*Frohickey
~sleepynova
~Yerials-Lost-Wings
=GreenofSpades
~Lunatheshewolf
~crashingwave
*theOvercoat

Be sure to check everyone's journal on Sunday for their finished sketches! :D


Here's the basic rules (although it's all very laid back).

:bulletred: The sketch must be based on the theme for the week (check mine or `touchedvenus's journal for the latest theme- suggestions for new themes welcome).

:bulletred: Sunday is the deadline. You must upload your sketch to your journal by Sunday each week.

:bulletred: Your sketch can be as rough or as finished as you like, so long as it is just a sketch.

:bulletred: Add a 'Sketch of the Week' section to your journal and upload your sketches there (either as a thumbnail from your scraps/gallery, or an image from an imagehosting site like Photobucket- alternatively, a link to your sketch for non-subscribers).

:bulletred: List the other deviants taking part in sketch of the week, and their submitted sketches- lets see if we can get a network going..

:bulletred: Finally, please let me know if you're taking part in Sketch of the Week so I can list/feature you here!
______________________


I'm thinking sketches made from life are best, something you jot down on the train/bus, while out on a walk..whatever. It's entirely up to you :)

This is all just for fun and not a competition! Perhaps when there's enough participants we can do a contest of some sort- or simply feature the best sketch (as voted by others)? We'll see :D

Editorial illustration? Like, ewww! I'm all for D&D type books and whatnot, and for children's books, but not some fucking stupid editorial. *sigh* It really is hard for an artist to make a break in the world, ya know? Well, we all have our challenges to overcome! *hugs* I would like to study in England though, or possibly Germany...
*Vermin-Star:iconVermin-Star: Mar 17, 2008, 4:44:34 PM
so you're doing a kind of access course or something? You wanna go for a degree in London? Kewl, we'd be neighbours then XD I studied Illustration in Lincoln (lil town halfway up the country), and it was great, good times..:D but our lecturers tried to direct us towards making crappy editorial Illustration :X still, it got me this far..
Keep at it hon, just do your thang, you're sure to go places :D

I'm currently taking crappy online courses from my uni in the states--something like "general education requirements," bleh! But next quarter I am taking drawing classes--one class is 4 hours long! :O I took sculpture last quarter and that was pretty neet. The teacher was a hard-ass though, let me tell you. He definitely told you like it was! =( But yeah, you know, I really would like to go to art school in London...
*Vermin-Star:iconVermin-Star: Mar 16, 2008, 12:26:26 PM
OMG! Great to hear from you! And you're doing a course?? That's awesome! Tell me more? Oh and welcome to DA :hug:

Anyways, I've now bookmarked your DA so I can keep up with your work because I really love it :) Shame I never use DA (I just checked my gallery, some ooooold stuff in there)!

Well, take care and keep in touch

~inflatablechaffinch:iconinflatablechaffinch: Feb 7, 2008, 3:15:11 AM
Our illustration club is meeting 11.00 at my place again this saturday. Last weeks project was based around random scenarios such as "the end of the world", or "two people having a conversation about the weather", or "teddy bear invasion", so feel free to have a stab at one of those if you fancy it. The comic book project is also ongoing 'til we have enough to make a mini book.
