Only this moment



Sorry for the lack of updates. Been keeping up with my drawing but just haven't had the time to update. Invested in some prismacolours. All I can say is ^_^.
I wasn't too sure at first how I felt about the purchase seeing as they were super expensive (or felt that way since I'm used to using things like crayola and sharpies when it comes to markers XD) but after playing around with them, I can honestly say they were probably one of my best purchases.

Anywhoo, I decided to do some sappy couple figure drawing. I know, the hand/arm is off. I just woke up. Kind of tired/out of it, etc... (more excuses)

I'm half tempted to just crop the shoulders up and do something fancy with it. I love the way the faces look.


The second picture was just a quick concept I came up with a few nights ago. It's not exactly how I wanted it to be but I kind of kept playing with it/adding to it until this came to be.

I'm probably going to redraw it digitally at some point. Maybe.

I've been neglecting digital art now that I'm sketching again. I feel bad but honestly, it's not that big of a deal. As long as I'm drawing, I'm making progress which to me, is all that matters.

Yes, the couples are based off of certain people. >_>
I also used a reference for them. Yay for being lazy.

Last one is my dnd character. Yes, he's a guy. Yay prismacolours. Now it's time for me to take a shower and do something with the rest of my day :D

Cowboys

So my dad's birthday's today. This here cowboy happens to be his present.

Portrait of the singing cowboy, Gene Autry.
Done on a fairly large (or larger than I normally use) piece of paper with ebony pencil.

Ended up using the grid method to get it right since I'm out of practice for larger portraits.

Finally got my hands on some prismacolor markers. I'll post some stuff later on.

Gotta start getting ready for an interview. :D

Drifting.

Cutting ties with the internet for a while minus this place. I only feel comfort from posting what little art I can produce.

If I dont keep up with this, I feel like I wont have much else to work towards. This keeps me going in my time of despair.

Just a quick sketch. I felt like I needed to get this feeling out of my system. I guess this helped.

I just feel like everything I've been working towards is a lie.


Maybe I'm living a lie?

Demon

Been feelin' strange lately. Drifting in and out of reality a little which scares me. At the very least, I can cook up some intersting artwork when I'm like this.

I think I'm just stressing myself out and thinking too hard. Maybe.

I am happy with the fact that I"m playing with traditional media again. Markers are a lot of fun to use. I just wish there were an undo button sometimes. :<

I'll probably draw some more later. Got an art trade to work on. I'll probably do it digitally.

Other than that, back to being sick.

Yep.

So tired.

Started sketching on the bus the other day. I'm trying to get better with anatomy. I've got a loooong way to go though.

I've been feeling kind of ill but I've still been keeping up with my daily artings. Work is starting to become a lil' less stressful.

Ugh, so fucking tired. I feel like I haven't sleep. I need to get back on a normal sleeping schedule. It's really affecting me. x_x

woo.


I'll finish this update later.

So, here we go. Round two. I'm fairly happy with this.
Saw this ball jointed doll the other day after browsing a Vampire Hunter D fansite.

All I've got to say is. FFFFFFFF. I wish I had a grand to blow on that fucking doll. Not that I even really need it but still.

After seeing it, I decided to start drawing. My love of this fandom is pretty much retarded. Kind of like this stupid spell checker in Chrome that corrects my horrible slang.

BUT ANYWAY...

I really feel the need to get a decent scan of this but it'll have to wait until I'm not lazy and I can actually get my scanner to work.
Now, after that I of course have to start drawing my favorite thing in the world to draw when I can't think of anything better to draw.
One word. Boobs.

I reaaaally like to draw the female body. I think it's probably my favorite thing in the world to draw besides a pretty face. I mean, look at dem curves and dat ass.

How can you go wrong with that? :D

I ended up using a reference at first and I really couldn't get it to look the way I want. I ended up just taking what I had and tweeking it to be something better.

But yeah. I'm tired.
Here's some art.
Be happy.
Yep.


Goodnight world.

A new year

A new year brings more new art. Woo. I'm starting to run out of ideas for drawings. I'm getting ready to start an art trade with a friend so hopefully that'll spark some new ideas.

I know I need more ideas to draw but it's really getting difficult. I guess I s
hould start sketching up some anatomy. I just feel like my sketchbook is still really empty and that everything in it thusfar, is not quality work.

Due to the fact that I've been using a tablet for so long, I feel as though I draw far too small for such a large surface area. I've noticed that it really does kill your ability to fill up a huge amount of space. Not really sure how to combat that but I guess I'll figure it out in time. As for the sketch to the left, it's just another random face sketch. Woo. I took the original and basically give it more depth for a more dramatic feel. Yay.

I also decided to give perspective a try again. Needless to say, I failed miserably. I haven't really attempted since my senior year of highschool, oh so long ago. I guess that would explain why I'm so fucking horrible at it.

Oh well. ENJOY THIS FAILVETTE.

I guess if I keep at it, I'll eventually get the hang of it. I'll be attempting again at a later time to see if I can manage to do something worthy. Anywho, I'm tired and it's been a long day so...

Dita: over and out.
