After reading an article last night about artist Chris Oatley's daily routine I found on EscapeFromIllustrationIsland.com, I was filled with inspiration. Learning about how he wakes up every morning right around 6:30am to begin working encouraged me to do the same. Chris is an amazing artist and works hard all day every day to continue perfecting his craft. So I figured that I should be living my Illustration life the same way, good things come to those who work hard right? This morning I woke up at 6:30, made myself a nice tall cup of joe, and started working out ideas. For awhile now I've had the desire to sit down and work out a series involving skulls from different members of the animal kingdom. So I started sketching a mouse skull I found after dissecting an owl pellet I found in my yard a couple years ago. This is what I eventually came up with after bringing it into Photoshop. It's now 9:16am and I need to get ready to go to work at my day job, leave me with your comments :)
