1950's


This is really supposed to be in the background of another art project I'm working on, but I like the way it turned out. I thought I'd go ahead and post it as a stand alone for now. I've been researching a lot of illustration from the 50's, and one artist I found is Earl Oliver Hurst. His stuff is super cute!


I thought I'd try to mimic his character designs and mix it with the rendering style of those cheesy 1950's coke ads.


I hate that the text is framing her teeth! What is the deal with that? Still a cute ad, though.

Colors!


Super quick sketch I did last night. I've always been a little uncomfortable when it came to color, so I decided to just let my color inhibitions go with this one.
