Person of note artist research

From the body of work I have now and the reference from films I feel like I'm able to start ideas for poster 3 postcards and 4 stamps. Fir my poster I am thinking of making a montage of leonard nimoy life journey with in the Star Trek... Younge to old. For the 3 post cards I want to express 3 things he's known for in the film. And the stamps I want to base them on known places he's been or places of note that people relate spok to. 

Ideas for post card

• quotes

• battles 

• his job on the ship

• knowledge

Ideas for stamps

• badges 

• symbols 

• Galaxy 

• journeys 

• home planet 

 Iv always been highly inspired other illustrators and artists. But never related them to my own work. after feed back from my last project saying that I should tart to do so I thought I would tick the box and see if it helps. 

I researched a hole lot of different styles of illustrators but it's the one who draw realistically that get my attention.

I feel we share the same interest in drawings. Exaggerate highlights and shadows, keeping the realism sharp but at the same time there's a need for it to look crafted. Keeping that realistic connection to me brings a better relationship and understanding to the veiwer. Been able to creat something on paper that looks like it's alive or has real depth makes it satisfying for me. I get asked all the time why do I draw realism? blog about why you draw the way you do and why the need to make it look real. But I can't explaine it, its just visually please for me. It's a challenge. Making something flat come to life gets me excited. Maybe I'll be able to explaine it when I understand fully what an illustration Is.
