shapes

I have been really enjoying this motif lately of mixing geometric shapes and linework with the fluidity of watercolor.

This 11" x 14" bold, dynamic, geometric abstract makes a unique statement. Lines and curves, angles and shapes in stark black and white convey the arbitrary, yet methodical . . . random, yet systematic nature of the universe . . . and our lives.

Simple shapes but I was happy with the composition. I also love the brown color of the cardboard as a background.

A tribute to Wassily Kandinsky. Painters do lots of doodling. Kandinsky played around with certain shapes again and again, so I thought I would too. I took shapes from lots of his paintings and moulded them into a doodle. Kandinksy was very meticulous wit

This sketchbook spread features a stylized pattern of colorful poppy flowers. The garden of flowers includes leaves of green, yellow and peach. The flowers are yellow with blue stems. The drawing as a whole has a whimsical and playful feel with a bright color scheme, polka dots and organic squiggle shapes, and blobs of seemingly random colors. Please check out my website ArtsyDrawings.com for more by me, Brianna Eisman. Thank you!

Against a vibrant yellow sky, the boldly colored, circular shapes suggest a multitude of orbs, each with its own unique style and design, floating across the vast universe.

New class, Sketching for Animators and illustrators, started last Saturday. I do a lot of trace overlays on students existing work. This was just adding more believable shapes and changing the pose slightly. I really like this class since we get to cover

Vibrant, cheerful, abstract design of shapes and colors. Available in sizes 6" x 8" to 16" x 20".

Creating different robot critter with shapes.

What do you see? I usually don't have a plan when I put my pen to the paper. A lot of the time, I just draw what comes to me and sometimes it starts to form into other "bigger" shapes/objects like this one.

I decided to create some doodles today with the supplies that have been collecting dust at the bottom of my drawer, and this happened!

Creating random critters and flowers with different shapes.

More often than not, music defines where my lines go.

Not a famous quote per se (as requested for this week's prompt), but my own little phrase I often think about and consider.

Mashup of geometric patterns and some organic shapes.

Shapes and Lines

All shapes and sizes. Blind sketching.

While on my drive home, at each red light, I drew in my sketchbook without looking. All shapes and things were from things I was seeing as I drove home. I then colored it in.

Watercolour doodle in my Moleskine sketchbook. Flower pots in different shapes, sizes and colors.

I did this when I was suffering from artist block. Surprised it came out so good but I was just doodling on the page and making shapes.

This doodle took the form of a fish for some reason!

Another doodle, this time using mostly shapes and lines instead of characters and faces. Also, this was done traditionally with ink instead of digitally, which I hadn't done in a while and was a lot of fun!

A combination of colors and shapes swirling in space. No reason, just fun!
