Memory Sketching by Steven Silver

I came across this video on youtube by Steven Silver. In this video he shows a quick memory sketch from a person he found interesting om the train. Drawing from memory could be a great and fun exercise as it helps you observe the world around you and get captured by something others take for granted. I am going to try this out as there are a lot of crazy people here to draw from :P

Visit to the Shell Museum in Corfu

Strangely enough, after all those years on this island I never visited this impressive museum which is not that far away from where I live. I thought it would be great for my project to have a look at real sea creatures, corals and shells. I was gobsmacked how amazing the under water world is and this visit has inspired me a lot. What I found mostly interesting was the variety of shapes, sizes and colours of sea shells and the textures of the sea creatures. I am definately going to use reference from this trip. :D

Sea-Creature Concept

Not quite how I imagined it. This is just a quick experiment.I wanted to make its mane turn from solid to liquid water then end up evaporating. As I said before..too much of a horse! Whoops... :O
