Exploring Illustration

Here is a new website I visited:

http://www.sugarfrostedgoodness.com/

These sites will start to inspire me on exploring illustration on the web and commenting on its contents further on in my posts. This feels good for a routine exerise of researching, as well as inspiration. The interest started when my illustration teacher, Julie, encouraged us to look through a place called Illustration Friday over the reading week, and boy was I blown away! My inclination to surf through artist work has been a funny pattern of days and days of intense studying and months and months of putting off. I tend to think the reason is because I can’t find a decent directory to go to when I search for stuff. To this day, Wikipedia is probably one of the better sources, and then maybe a list of names my former teacher provided me.

This is a picture taken from Sugar Frosted Goodness of Tate Modern. I’d like to give this technique a try. The method I’ll go by it is probably taking a picture of an architectural setting and developing it (or printing it), and pasting my drawing on top of it. I’m doubtful of how the result will be like, so the other way to produce it is to digitally render it on Photoshop.
