Reportage artist research: Dominick Santise

As I continued with my research I found an artist named Dominick Santise. I likedhis drawings because they arent perfect but they still tell a story and set the mood of what is happening in the image. I really liked his drawing of the white house the bold black lines and the leafless trees give it a bit of an eery feel buti like that about it. One of his other images caught my eye and the reason I like this image is because you can really feel the motion in the image with the way he has smudged the lines to make the flags look likey they are being shuck by the people.

Repotage artist research: Eddie Peña.

Whilst searching for reportage artists that inspire me I came across Eddie Peña. I really like how he ads splashes of vibrant colour over his black line drawings.
I also like how his drawings look when he uses no colour at all because they still do what they are supposed to and show what is happening. One of his drawings stood out in particular to me and that is the line drawing of a barn with a big splash of red colour. I love it because the red just draws your eye in and makes the image so much more exciting. One of his other images that i really liked was an image of a man sitting on a park bench. The reason that I like this image is becuse you can see what the image is even though its slightly abstract I think the use of colour is really nice.

Cat sketches

I thought I'd get a head start with my university work so I got this tiny sketch book and decided to do a few loose quick sketches of my cats!
Not the most amazing drawings in the world but im trying to improve on drawing faster
