Forrest's Sketchbook of Art Junk!

Lol, had my four-year-old behind me when I opened that last post!! Are you actually painting all these or just practicing choosing colours or something?

Charlotte You're totally right Thanks for that, I made those changes in the final

Stuart Whoops, looks like you'll need to have "the talk" a little early And yes I'm painting them all and trying to get as accurate of colors as possible and then comparing my colors to the original photos so I know what I need to work on

Haven't been active enough on here, gonna try and make time to take a look around on some other peoples topics tomorrow Just been going through a lot of personal stuff over the last couple days and haven't been able to do as much as I'd like

Finished the Earth Elemental, very happy with the turnout, however not fully satisfied. I know I can do better if I push myself to do better. So tomorrow will be spent figuring out what the hell my next illustration will be because alas, I still have no client work

Looks good. If you wanted to tweak it a little I'd say the cliffs and the rider's face could use a tiny bit more detail, but I'm just being picky.

Eh, I'm done with that one, can't linger on the past too long

So I am working on my next illustration, gettin pumped. Ready to start the study train back up. Gonna try to make some more time to doodle at the start of my day just to help apply my studies to things that aren't so finished looking. I think it'll help keep the information in my head easier if I apply it instantly to not just one but two things. So more painting!

Hi Forrest!

I watch your livestream videos whenever I can get the chance. Really great work you've been doing lately! I'm very inspired and often look forward to your sketches and studies. Keep it up, you're doing so well! I love your Earth Elemental. I remember seeing a Water one from you as well. Are you planning on doing more?

Cool fire, need to learn how to paint like that.

Hey Forrest, glad you started a sketchbook here. Nice stuff as always.

Looking good. Like the flame work going on.

Loving your style, nice and clean. Your values are particularly impressive, keep it up!

Thank you all so much! And Aislynne my next one is a fire one I'll make time tomorrow to return the favor by giving comments back in all your sketchbooks, was a little busy today to do so

So I wanna start this thing where at the end of every week I gather all of my paintings and studies and junk and I post them all together to see how much I really got done in one week. This week was a good start but I know I can do more! If you wanna see all of the images at their full resolution you can go here:
