Excited to Be Back – Post Vacation Update| Liron Yanconsky’s Podcast – Episode 40

Hi there! In today’s episode I wanted to you an update after returning from my US vacation.

Vacation

I had a really good time in the US. We visited many places with my family, and saw all sorts of interesting things.

Aside form spending time in Ohio, we also drove through Pennsylvania and New-York (state), and visited the Niagara falls (Canadian side).

Taking a break from work

This is the longest break I took from work, since I got started teaching art and building my personal brand.

I was a little scared about taking such a long break, but it ended up doing really good things.

Painting less frequently

When I got back to painting, I felt more immersed and even more appreciative of how much fun I’m having.

It was great expressing myself in such a way after the long break.

I also feel like I shedded some unnecessary layers of creative blocks, and cleaned up my own authentic creative way of communication.

More on that in a future episode.

Studio

I also moved to a new place recently, and that place has an extra room for a studio space!

I already set most of it up, and am now back on track / to routine.

Having a dedicated creation space is such a big deal for me, as it was my goal since the start of the year.

I hated having to move things around every time I wanted to paint / record. This is a major achievement for me (:

To hear more about my experiences, be sure to listen to the episode.

How to Draw Shay Cormac VS Adewale (AC Rogue)

Hey there!

Today I want to do something special.

In this video I show you how to draw a battle scene between Shay Patrick Cormac and Adewale – two characters from the Assassin’s Creed Rogue video game.

This is less of a drawing lesson, and more of a speed-drawing demonstration of my complete drawing process.

You’ll see everything from drawing, to painting (watercolors AND colored pencils) and inking.

So without further ado, here it is!

A few notes:

1. I like to paint before I ink.

This is something I talked about before.

This type of process allows the colors to really shine, and then also allows you to be minimal with your pen and ink.

2. I mix watercolors with colored pencils.

I like the look I achieve by applying watercolors and then completing the look using colored pencils.

This is a common practice, and is my favorite way to go. The watercolors easily cover large surfaces and give the base tone. Then, the colored pencils add the texture and more accurate shading.

However, you are invited to try a different way, and let me know if it works better for you (=

Anyway, this is it. Let me know if you have any questions!

And if you want to become a king at drawing, inking, painting, sketching and whatnot, be sure to subscribe here. You’ll also receive my book as a gift! (=
