Journal Entry: Wed May 7, 2008, 11:40 AM
As some of you may notice I've been mostly sketching rather than doing full compostions. The reason being is that I'm really trying to loosen up my drawings. Before my work was very stiff and non-dynamic, so I'm trying to change that. I've been looking at Naruto storyboards (from the Naruto boxsets) and studying a bit of Ashley Wood and Yoji Shinkawa's artwork. Thier work is very loose and dark which inspires me how to draw. If there are any artist out there that anyone may know that has the same kind of style please let me know.
