Heroic Idealized Iconic Female in Action Pose!

how many adjectives does one piece of art work need? dont know for sure, but they do say a picture is worth a 1000 words. (i bet those words are mostly adjectives!) lol so yeah lets get to the point!

I needed to do some concept artwork for a colleague, and work more with black and white, painting light, texture, forms ETC! so my co-worker requested Star Wars' Asajj Ventress. Without further a due, and random rants of nonsense!
(This piece we are looking at 15-20hrs)
(includes sketch, draw, scan ,and paint)
(Personal WIN!- took out my line work again...life is good)

PRACTICE!

 hello again all! so now to keep myself sharp you use a random phrase generator! DONT NOT CLICK TWICE CAUSE YOU DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO/DONT UNDERSTAND! learn it! do it! do it AGAIN! so this time it came up with the term "ill preparation". I instantly thought of malpractice in medicine! (due to things going on in my family recently) so here is this!

(took about 6-8 hours)
(personal WIN! - this is the first piece i have "finished" with NO LINE WORK!)

First post, ... introduction

Hello,

     My name is Zock Zochert. I am a student at the Academy of Art University, in San Francisco. I am creating this blog to further hone my skills, and lets be honest, blogspots are accepted professionally and I am a poor art student. Now I know there are a lot of blogs out there, and a lot of art blogs on top of that. Well I have got good news, and bad news! BAD NEWS FIRST! I am creating one of those said “art blogs”. GOOD NEWS! I will never do the blowing smoke up your @$$, pretty words, or paint my feelings. I am an artist in the 21st century, its about speed, product, and meeting deadlines. Period. With that said, lets make art.

Zock Z

PS - I am going to post some examples of my work so you all know what to expect of me. Not to mention having a blog for me has a lot to do with seeing my overall progression. So i am not going to post every single thing i have done, that i think you should see. just things i have done recently.
