Claire Hummel

Claire Hummel is a concept artist that I have recently come across. One of the first things that grabbed by attention when looking through her work was the amount of detail in her designs, as well as the huge range of style. A lot of the work she posts online is fan art as well as her own professional concept design work. However I still find all of her work intriguing to look at because it is clear that she is has a very strong drawing ability!

After scrolling though many examples of her work, I could see that she is somebody who does not follow one singular style, or at least that is how it looks. I could see instantly that she is a talented character designer & background designer. This immediately struck me because I am somebody who wants to excel in both of these areas. Her attention to detail is something that I found mesmerizing to look at, because there was just so much to see. This made me feel excited to draw more backgrounds and environments, and to get better at it. In my opinion, I think one of the reasons she is so good at producing detailed concept work to a high standard is because she not only has a strong drawing ability, but she also has a brilliant understanding of anatomy, which I think is a vital quality to have when creating work like this. 

After researching through her work, it made me realise again the importance of life drawing and understanding the human form ,therefore I decided to make sure I keep life drawing on a regular basis because I think this has a huge influence on how somebody represents a character.
