SKETCHES WITH COLOR

I sketched these in marker, then later colored in Painter while I watched an interview with author Richard Matheson online. Matheson's the author of "I Am Legend", "The Incredible Shrinking Man", "Somewhere In Time", some great episodes of the "Twilight Zone", adapted the "Night Stalker" for television and has written many other T.V. shows and books.

SKETCHY STUFF

Space Jam

This started from a sketch I did when I was listening to a John Coltrane CD. He and his band were jamming and it kept building up into the stratosphere. I've done three versions of this in color. The first was in watercolor and the other two in the program Freehand. here are the other two:

Color Sketch

I keep trying to simply add some color to my sketchbook drawings and post them. Hours later I find myself still tinkering and experimenting with them. Although I enjoy and probably gain something from the process, I sometimes wonder if I should just post them in pencil. The name of this blog is Leadheaded after all.
On the other hand, these could just be referred to as digital studies for actual paintings.
This one is odd in that I originally imagined it to be more blue. Somehow I ended up coloring it in warm browns and reds! I bet if I do paint it, I'll color it completely different again. I have a tendency to take off for places without knowing how to get there.

REVISION (8:15 PM)
(Then again blue/green's nice.)
