Moved

I’ve decide to move my art blog to tumblr. I find it easier to update and keep track of every thing as for as images go. I will leave this one up for now. I may close it later because all of the art here can be found on my deviantArt account as well Click here to go to my new blog.

Blowing off the Dust

Dekeve — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 21:33:27 +0000

I haven’t posted anything here in a while. I will hopefully be more active here when I start school in September. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design for Animation. If you would like to see my recent art since the last post here, you can go to my deviantArt page (in the like sections).

I do have a recent sketch to share, although it was created after a very sad and unfortunate event.

I drew this after my parents brought home a dead cat that they witnessed get killed by a car Wednesday night. They didn’t want to leave it in the street and they wanted to find out if it had a chip, so if it did the owner could be notified. I was overwhelmed with sadness at the sight of the poor thing. It has made me realize how much I cherish my own cats.

It wasn’t my intention to bum anyone out with this, I just thought it needed some explanation.

One of the hardest things to depict in art for me is death, without an outward sign of it. I consider this a rough work even though it bares my watermark.

As I Ponder

An early birthday gift to myself and an image I will be using for my website Pyrocat Productions. It is a transparent PNG. The first artwork of Dekeve in her anthropomorphic form. I actually have that shirt and belt. There will be a watermarked and unwatermarked version when my site is published on the web. I know it’s a weird pose, but I like it. I’m going to be 21 on the 26th, if you’re wondering.

Long Time, No Post

Well it’s been a while sense my last post, but I’m back and have two new works to share:

This was done for my sculpture class. It was designed and cast by me. It’s made from pewter and was cast using a plaster mold that I carved into to. As you can tell it is slightly smaller than my left palm, and I have fairly large hands. This was made back in May.

Done for one of my real life best friends, as a thank you for capturing my 2,000 kiriban (page view) on Deviantart. Her pets Barbie the dog and Indy the cat. Barbie is a Sheltie, just so you know. I’ve seen them play like this many times before.

Note: Firefox washes out my colors, I recommend using Safari or IE to view my images. If you don’t have either, you can save them to your hard drive.

Redflash

Dekeve — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 23:58:06 +0000

This is Redflash, a new character, although she was not originally mine. I “adopted” her from an online acquaintance. I’m using this picture as a paperdoll, meaning that this is for me to try out different outfits and accessories with out having to draw a new picture every time, I’ll just draw over top of the image in Photoshop. I just threw in a background, for the heck of it. I may shade it later just for fun.

Rocket

Dekeve — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 16:12:00 +0000

I called him, Rocket! This is a mock up graphic novel cover, that I did for fun as a graphic design experiment, inspired by Case Closed and my love for animals.

Sleuth is another word for a detective for those who don’t know. A sleuthhound is a dog used for tracking or pursuing. Rocket is both. Rocket accompanies his P.I. owner on cases and leads him to the clues, helping to unravel the criminal mind and apprehend offenders of the law. From murder to missing cats, he is on the case! He is one gifted dog!

Orange and Raspberry Sherbet

My latest work, I used this as one of my Photoshop assignments for my Computer Art class. My teacher was pleased with it. Now you can see were my banner image came from. This is of my personal character, Dekeve with her new design. For a full description go here. If you want to see my earlier work, please visit my DeviantArt page.

Let the blogging begain

So to start things off I’m going to share a few sketches that were done in the last two months. Click the image to enlarge.

I sketched this around Valentine’s Day. It’s a quick compositional sketch, it is not supposed to be that anatomically accurate. The two people are Jimmy (Shinichi) and Rachel (I think it’s, Rae or Ran ) from an anime/manga titled Case Closed.

Done during Computer Art class, but was not one I used as an assignment. But, I am working on coloring it and will most likely have it finished some time next week. Inspired by Case Closed and my love for animals.

Done in my Computer Art class. I was just warming up with my tablet at the beginning of class. It is supposed to be a lion. Done from memory.

Haha yeah I like to sketch in color. These were all done using Photoshop and my Graphire 4 Wacom tablet.

New here.
