Malamute Fall 2019

I just finished my first drawing for Tokyo Fashion Week. This Fashion Week holds a special place in my heart. Back in 2012 my brother, Susie lau (Style Bubble), and I were guest of Tokyo Fashion Week, and it was one of the most enjoyable weeks of my life. This drawing is of a dress from Malamute Fall 2019 Collection. The collection had an elegant and romantic look that I tried to capture with the pose and the lighting. I’ve been working on developing some new drawing techniques where I draw a picture multiple times and then create a composite of them digitally. This picture was 3 drawing and 1 watercolor merged together. I’m really happy with the over all tone of the picture. Let me know what you think. :)

Charcoal Drawing by Fashion Artist Danny Roberts of Mona Johannesson Getting ready

Portrait

A Night on the Town

I’ve been working on improving how I render light and shadow. I desperately want to master dynamic lighting, so I thought charcoal on tone paper would be a good place to start. The reference for this picture is from Swedish model Mona Johannesson‘s Instagram. The picture had beautiful contrast, and i tried my best to capture the feeling I had when i first saw the picture. I really learned alot working this one. I hope you like it :) “

Inspiration Friday

Roof – Inspiration Friday

I’m so happy to present my first Inspiration Friday post in seven years. I’m going to start back blogging 3 days a week Monday, Wednesday, Friday. If you are new to the blog, the way Inspiration Friday works is I pick a song that inspires me, then as I’m listening to the song, I find images that feel fit the vibe of song. This post was inspired by Sucre’s new single “Roof” . I hope you are inspired. Let me know what you think. :)

Falling in Love

I meant to have this illustration done for Valentine’s day, but two years in a row my Valentine’s concept came to me on Valentines day. The main inspiration for this piece came from the 1934 film “It Happened One Night” by one of my all time favorite directors Frank Capra. The movie is one of my family’s favorites. I really wanted to capture that moment when a person realizes that they are falling in love. I had a really clear picture in my head of what I was going for. It ended up taking me 4-6 redraws till I felt like I captured that feeling. I’m really happy with how it turned out.

Also I’m creating a limited edition fine art prints of this piece. There will only be 15 prints of this ever made. The Print size is 17 inches by 17 inches and the image size is 15 inches by 15 inches. Every print I will hand embellish. I’m Selling them for $120 with free shipping. Leave a comment if you are interested. I posted a picture of the print below. Let me know what you think :) I love hearing from you.
