George Butler in Africa

By Adrian

George is a freelance illustrator working in London. His work is both commercial and personal. The influences he takes from his location drawing can be seen in the work he does for editorial pieces, reportage accounts, children's books, fashion artwork and commercial drawings.

Work in progress: new motion study

By fineartandexhibition
Spent a couple of hours on this; still very much at the work in progress stage - so plenty to do tomorrow. Gave some thought to a background- but eventually decided to keep it plain rather than taking attention away from the figure by 'over-crowding' the image. 

I seem to be moving away from architecture and paying more attention to figurative drawing; which may be because my most recent piece of architectural stuff is what I was working on when my cat died- and for some reason that I don't quite understand I therefore cannot bring myself to finish it. 

Anyway, that's all for now- I think. :)Attitude.JPG

Merchandise from my pics

By gav
I have just put together some cards, mugs, T shirts and bags with images of Dance. I think they are rather good and so do a lot of people I am pleased to say.

Cobweb snowdrops fall from the sky

By Rafel Athens
Upon madness
I built my dreams
In a land far far away
Not in this life anyway
But close to you

It is true
I am immortal
The walking death
Of darkest spawn
I am but dawn apple grove
Wrapped insane
Upon the laughing sea of pain

I am darkness
I am death
I am everywhere
And everything

Thou shall rest immortal
Close to where the darkest night
Crying in the rain
And me
Drowning in the depths of her

"Not you my love,"she whispered.

And i
Not sure which way to turn
If i should turn to God
Or love her

Shakespeare on film

By fineartandexhibition
...my latest preliminary sketch for an original painting. 

This one is based upon an old photograph of Judi Dench as Titania in Peter Hall's 1967 film adaptation of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Interesting how film adaptations of Shakespeare tend to reflect the preoccupations of the time in which they are produced. 1967titania.jpg
