2009 Summary of Art


As the year winds down and i prepare my long treck to snowy NJ for the holidays I made this meme :-) sorry i dont have a link to the original. it should be easy to find if you search DA ;-)



*click image for full view
Wanted to do this and take a serious look at my progress this year. I think I made some definite leaps and bounds over the end of the summer with my photoshop skills, but i like some of my character design better from the beginning of the year.

I was sadly surprised at myself at how little there was to choose from... got to draw more. add that to my list of resolutions.

This was fun :-) hoping next year ill improve even more! But i do believe this was my year for most growth artistically.

*ps: i havent finished anything i like for December yet so i put a sketch im working on ;-)

Ariel... Agian


decided to redo the full body anorexic ariel..

the first one was cool but wasnt capturing the vision i had. perhaps i will return to it one day. i want it to be more about her sorrow than her body, though her body does play a part in it.

will finish soon :-)

AWESOME GIVEAWAY FROM KMYE-CHAN!




An amazing holiday giveaway from one of my favorite artists! i hope i win ^^

A lot of people loved my "sick Ariel" drawing a few weeks back and suggested i do a full body version. Here is the first draft. Shes examining herself in a mirror, the statue of Prince Eric looming behind her.

New Commission Account


NEW COMMISSION ACCOUNT!
So after much thought and consideration, I have decided to create a new account for all the commissions I do that don't really fit into this gallery. I thought it would be nice to let everyone know before I move them all over :-)
COMMISSION ACCOUNT


I wont be checking that account all that often, so if you need to reach me this is the place to do it :-)
Please don't think im moving your work out of this gallery because I don't like it. Iv just grown and started a new look to my gallery. And I want my main gallery to reflect that.I know lots of other artists that don't even post commissions so.... consider yourself lucky ;-) This means all stories except the Terratoff one will move. I already have way too many mediums going on here 0_0
Ill still accept and keep track of all of my commissions on this account only! please dont message me at helloheath-commish with commission requests.

Give me about a week or so to get everything transferred please :-)

BACK ON BLOGGER
So i swear this is the last blog switch! Well, for the next 10 years or so anyway. I tried Livejournal and it wasnt as cool as i remember it being when i was in highschool, so im back to blogger. If your reading this than most likely helloheath.com's make over is complete. Please check it out.

CLOSING
I know i have been a little MIA lately, but thats only because Iv been getting a ton of shit ready to better promote / organize myself and my work. And im also moving in a few weeks so life is hectic.
In closing, here is my favorite new piece of artwork iv done, ill do a full body version soon.





My depiction of Ariel...

Started this as an experiment, but it turned into this. I wanted to see how a flatter element (the hair) would look against an element (the face) with more dimension.

I wanted to make Ariel look sickly, BECAUSE come on people, shes a love sick teenager whos in love with someone she REALLY cant be with! Shes rebellious, sad, heartbroken, and confused about life. so i wanted to paint a more real portrait of her. plus, have you seen her waistline? poor girl is starving herself...

dont hate, i love ariel but i wanted to explore giving her some exaggerated features that speak to who she really was at one point in her life
