wake up

Yay I finally have internet :) I wanted to buy a new sketchbook but I had to refrain myself because I already have two right now that are not done (like all of my other sketch books). I like carrying the little cute ones but I actually think I prefer drawing on the larger ones?!??

Anyway, here are a couple of doodles:

I used to draw those transformation a lot. You know, like the Animorphs covers! lol

oscar wilde

Something you'll never see on The New Yorker. OTL
SORRY. OTL. AND SORRY THAT IF IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE HIM.
I am realllllyyyyy bad at drawing people, especially from photographs! I did this on the day it was due...AGAIN. Why do I keep doing this to myself? Hahaha. But seriously though, I hate drawing from photos. Also, do you notice the fox hide? I had to put an animal in as part of the assignment lol. Instead of his fur coat, I put the fox. I don't know whether he would have worn that though but maybe....HIS FACE WAS SOOOO HARD. I gave up. I gave up on the whole thing.

Oh yeah, we didn't really have to do realism-style but lol I wanted to? Cause when I think of Oscar Wilde, I think of Dorian Gray = fine art painting. I wasn't going to put him in The New Yorker either but I was told to...anyway I really like the style of the type for The New Yorker. xD

art rage

I really want to paint so I decide to install Art Rage. Actually I want to try Painter but that program never seems to work on me. So far, I quite like Art Rage. It is like CLEAN oil painting LOL But I need to experiment more to get the hang of it and I AM SO OUT OF PRACTICE LOL WHAT ARE COLORS??? HA HA

Anyway, I always love it when programs mimic traditional media!! Of course the real this is always best (IMO) but I'm lazy and cheap. Plus, this way I don't have to clean up (most important lol)

hello again

Above are old figure drawings. I literally drew them in as many different media as I could. I have a ton more that I will upload when I go back home and scan them.


I'm going to try this new thing where I sketch at least ONCE a day for practice sake. Ambitious, huh? Anyway, I like to draw every day people who do not really exist.

sketches and wip

i was in the mood.....i had to do this...lol;;;;;



also today i tried out that 30 sec drawing @posemaniacs
whoa its actually really fast! hahah O_O;;; im still new to this soooo cut me some slack :D
but it was fun



this one was actually 60 sec but i dont think it made a difference =_= i think i just relaxed more and drew slower LOLOL
i also started my oscar wilde painting :D

sketches again

sketch theme of the week: "Duality"
response sketch to Aya Kato's The Little Mermaid

failed Oscar Wilde sketch
and some thumbnails for final painting..

I had two more thumbnails...
My thumbnails are not understandable LOL
but I just bought some paint and an illustration board today sooo I really want to start soon!
Hahaha OMG The bottom sketch was actually really hard for me! It's not even quite to his likeness yet either! I really wanted to study his face for this portrait but...it's really difficult LOL I'm too used to drawing people with the features that I prefer...haha....He's not beautiful enough for me....lol.

more fail sketches during class cause I would fall asleep OTL....
I was thinking about Est Em's Seduce Me After the Show
People sometimes tell me that I'm really neat when it comes to drawing? But I actually really like rough sketches.

WHAT IS ANATOMY. WHAT IS FIGURES. SOBBBB I WANT A CLASSS/WORKSHOPP

Blind

(tools: watercolor, gouache, white gel pen, black copic brush pen)

Supposed to illustrate a quote. I used this one from House of Leaves:

"I will become, have become, a creature unstirred by history, no longer moved by the present, just hungry, blind and at long last filled of mindless wrath."

The red parts are what I left out...accidentally. I JUST SAW IT RIGHT NOW SIGH. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT LOLLLL. I should have double-checked before turning it in. OH WELL. TT_TT....I think I was doing this around 1:30 AM-5:30 AM on the day it was due. I don't know why it took so long.... I think I was distracted a lot and I'm naturally slow....sigh.

Honestly I've never read this book so it's just purely from the quote....

Also, originally I didn't want to include the part of the quote before the word 'BLIND'... but my teacher told me it wouldn't make as much sense without it..... but I ended up hiding it anyway?! SIGH. Actually I think it's more readable in real life.... Well people seemed to be able to.... Critique was okay... I wish we did it before turning the work in....though....so I could actually make this somewhat better after listening to suggestions and stuff.

process (going backwards):



This was my thumbnail sketched....that I messed with in photoshop a bit...lol
