Welcome To My Mind!
… and welcome to a personal project I call »Mindshots«. From time to time I illustrate my thoughts by using this simple red, black and white style to get some ideas out of my head. The inspiration for each piece comes from my daily life while working, talking, watching a movie, and hanging out with friends, or while getting bored in the dentist’s waiting room. Some are socially critical, humorous, or just plain ridiculous.
Sport Illustrations On Behance
I published a series of sport illustrations on Behance. I will share the illustrations and the work-in-progress here on my blog soon.
Back Again!
Dear loyal readers and followers!
I took a short break to change the structure of this blog. In the future you will find more work-in-progress pics, so you can see the different steps from the initial sketch to the final artwork. Sometimes I find it more interesting to see processes, thoughts and sketches than the worked-out piece – maybe you do, too. Furthermore, I shared some early works from 2011 till 2012. I hope you enjoy following my way as an illustrator and find some inspiration. Please feel free to tell or ask me anything you want via the contact form or by leaving a comment.
Furthermore, I updated my online portfolio – You’ll find a lot of new projects including portraits, sport and product illustrations, and much more. Take a look: www.maivisto.de
Thank you all for your constant support!
Ciao,
Sergio
Portrait: Leonardo DiCaprio
I think this is my very first portrait I did with the ink and watercolor technique. It’s also one of the most complex drawings, because I used 4 different yellow/ochre tones to draw the face, starting with the brightest to the darkest color.
Portrait: Kool Savas
Here is the final portrait of Kool Savas. I wasn’t quite sure about the color way, but now I’m quite satisfied with the warm yellow and cold blue combination.
Portrait: Kool Savas – Step 3 (WIP)
Portrait: Kool Savas – Step 2 (WIP)
Portrait: Kool Savas – Step 1 (WIP)
Kool Savas is my absolute favorite German rapper and so I dedicated a portrait to him. His music and lyrics always push me forward. I would like to share some work-in-progress images with you. This is step 1: Rough drawing and working on a few details.
The Creative Finder Features My Artwork
It’s an honor to announce that the TheCreativeFinder featured my artwork of »Kool Savas« on the main page. The Creative Finder is an important platform for creatives all over the world to connect, to collaborate and to inspire each other. It’s also part of DesignTAXI – a daily-updated news and editorial site focused on creativity and innovation. Forbes named DesignTAXI as »Top Five Sites For Keeping Up With Creativity and Design«. I personally use The Creative Finder and DesignTAXI as my daily inspiration for many years and I’m glad to be part of it.
