Das Kalendermotiv der Woche stammt von Samma van Klarbergen.
My picture: When I was told the week I was to do an illustration for, I was thinking about what that time period meant to me. I don’t deal well with the summer heat so September usually means that it cools down and I can pick up the pieces again. It’s a time where I rebuild some of my productivity and start to do more things again. That’s what the building of this bridge is supposed to signify.
My workflow: I always work in photoshop. I start with a black and white composition sketch and then move to color and big shapes. Finally I add detail and figure out exactly what it is that I’m drawing.
Future plans and current projects: I’m currently working as art director on a videogame, I’ll also teach a digital painting class at CGMA over the fall, and I’m always working on personal projects. Never a dull moment!
