Promarkers / Character Design

Kenneth Shinabery

Sometimes as an artist in today’s digital world we get swept away in using computers to create and generate many of our projects.

In the spring of 2013, I decided to take a step back from the computer and go back to my roots in traditional illustration by using Promarkers.

Because I relocated to Germany in 2012, I had to restock my art supply the following images so a progression. First, off adding more colors to my arsenal of markers and secondly, getting back into the realm of traditional illustration. I plan on adding more images to this series as time progresses.

This series is meant to show a progression in the use of Promarkers as well as my talent for creating and re-imaging characters. The series also explores some well known colorful characters.
