 Erotic Vulture + Contest + Blur + Sketches

 


I made this illustration almost specifically for EXPOSÉ 11, although I started it before I knew about the call for entries. It was more like I decided to make it at 300 dpi and put a greater effort into it to make it artbook-worthy.


I submitted this one along with other illustrations. I don't think it'll end up among the chosen ones but it's okay, that'll mean I have to work a lot harder next time!

In the meantime, enjoy these WIPs I uploaded to my facebook page.

BTW I called it  "Erotic Vulture" after the song Subbacultcha by Pixies.















Sometime in February I put together a drawing contest based on St. Patrick's. The winner (in this case winnerS) would get a calendar, an original sketch, a pin and a print. Here you can check out all the entries. These were the winning drawings:

Also, I decided to give a special gift to every single contestant, I haven't had time to do it but as soon as I'm back from vacation I'll send away all the prizes!
Stay tuned for my contests on my FB page https://www.facebook.com/Renee.Chio.Art

Now, just as a random side note, I'd like to share the fact that I got a ticket to Blur on March 15. It was hell of an experience, both getting a ticket and the concert itself. I would revive those moments if I could. Here's a photo of pure joy.


And finally, I'll post some sketches I've done lately. I hope you enjoy.
