I am back!
Four years later, yet I'm here again.
Where were I? Studying Graphic Design, in Athens' Technological Educational Institute! I have one more year to finish, because life happens, but it's been a ride. I've made lots of stuff in Graphic Arts, like these, progressed a bit in traditional and digital illustration, boosted my artistic skills, did TONS of photography (which I haven't uploaded yet) and even got some encouragement on exploring my personal style.
What I've been hiding from everyone is my current obsession. I'm making a surreal comic - but with serious levels of addiction! My friends and family would think I'm crazy for spending that much time for a half-baked novel, so I hide most of the work I do. Reading about writing, character development, humor and psychology, even speeches and politics (my hero is a prince), watching movies about kings and queens, spending hours in writing forums, and daydreaming endlessly about how my characters think and behave. The pre-sketches are over 100 pages long and I haven't yet fully developed my characters, so it's possible I am crazy. (Btw check out this forum if you're into writing, the community is quite friendly and supportive) What's amazing is, due to all that focused study I grow with my characters. Who knows, perhaps all I need to finally become a solid adult is an imaginary prince called Beta!
I've rambled way too much about myself, so here are some beautiful art-related videos for you:

How to draw hair. It has some nice thoughts about how things work.
Sycra has several interesting tutorials, so if you like this one check them out.
The making of a comic page. Just beautiful.
The making of a lovely digital painting. I learned some things watching this.
Ah, the eternal question: how do we price our design services?
A lovely video on how to pick colors. Never hurts to polish the basics!
And this one for the romantics :p
