It’s Inktober 2022 and artist Matthew Heron, also known as DOOODLEGOD, is back with a new collection of stunning illustrations. Each day during the month of October, Heron tackles a new prompt, bringing his unique artistic style to life through his sketching, inking, and shading processes. But it’s not just the final products that are captivating – it’s the journey […]
This was my last creation of 2021. ‘Terrapin Space Station’. This originally wasn’t going to be set in space, rather an island city with the turtle partially submerged. But after playing with some water/color overlays I wasn’t happy with that direction. The city in a protective bubble was the next thought, and after that we might as well be partying […]
My friend Ken recently gave a family member a nickname… Fuddy Duddy. Initially, he didn’t like it, but after it got around town it started to grow on them. He had one request though, that it be modified to Captain Fuddy Duddy. Hence the Captian Crunch character looking grumpy with FD on the hat. Here is the shading portion of […]
I don’t know if any of you have been following along with my screen printing adventures over here. Thought I would give a little update on how it’s treating me. I’ve learned that too thick of photo emulsion isn’t a good thing. I’ve learned to take the lamp cover off of my 500w work light. I’ve learned that too much […]
Just a quick snap of a dooodle I have been working on up at the bar the last two nights. Have a great weekend all!
A symmetry owl I am currently shading in with stippling. I have plenty of more lines to fill in the wings. Not going to spend too much time on this one, but worth a quick share.
I wanted to illustrate a method I recently have been using to create numerous color variations. I sketch, ink the linework and then shade it with grays. In Photoshop you can then apply a gradient adjustment layer. This applies your choice of gradient across the spectrum. This is me flipping through the options I currently have loaded. I haven’t uploaded […]
Just an update on my latest Mandala. Throwing some shading in below the line work. Work in progress, but needed to take a break. Why not upload a progress shot so all can enjoy.
This is my favorite type of escape. It’s easy mindless, or mind clearing, art. I haven’t posted in a while and just thought I would share a screen shot and a short video clip of the final strokes. I need to capture more videos while working digitally. I think it would be fun to post on youtube. More to follow […]
Just a skull sketch, but I like where it’s headed.
