Cathy’s Pinup Girl #AtoZChallenge art sketch series (‘H’)

It’s Thursday already. WOW, this week is nearly up! Tomorrow is DH’s off Friday, so I’ll be MIA in Blogosphere for this holiday weekend but not to worry, I have all of my A to Z Challenge posts scheduled for the next several days. Today’s illustration is inspired by Greg Hildebrandt Candy and Ice Cream painting pinup gal. I call mine, “Head Turner”. 😉SaveSave

My original pencil sketch of “Head Turner”. I find it difficult to correct the small details without messing up my paper, so I just get it where I’m comfort with the overall image before moving on to my digital work.
Here’s my Procreate design of “Head Turner”. I made quite a few changes. The human form is tricky to get spot on and I admire artists like Hildebrandt who nail every feminine feature purrfectly.

I thought it interesting how today’s alpha prompt also coincidentally is the the first letter of the pinup artist’s last name. I love it when the universe lines up like this, don’t you? 🙂

 

You’re gonna get another sample of artwork. At Rain’s Garden or weekly art date theme is ‘Easter’. I didn’t think I’d have to do anything but then I realized that I need to sketch something for our lil’ angel baby who’s now 18 months old and then I remember a drawing I did last year that I can share with our children. Things are coming together after all, so here’s what I have going.

I found inspiration last week for this design. Someone shared a paper crafted card similar to my Procreate creation. Unfortunately I didn’t save a link to that blogger’s site. I meant to but something went wrong.
I plan to transfer this illustration to Procreate so I can fill it in with color. This year, I will need to send our Easter greetings by text messaging which works beautifully.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Before you go, let me point out, all previous A2Z posts are listed in my side menu this month, so you won’t miss a thing.  Don’t forget to leave your footprints (direct URL) in comments so I can find my way back to you easily. I hope you’ll come back again tomorrow for another illustration in Cathy’s Pinup Girls Art Sketch Series.
