Hey guys, I'm looking for a man who's bald, has slitty eyes, a pointy nose, a boa constrictor and has a face that just screams I'll beat you up just for the fun of it!!!
jks no... I'd be too afraid Q_Q
Just doing some late night doodling, I actually really like this guy's face. I'm thinking about doing a little series on people who resemble animals just for the fun of it.
And things smoothed over at home which is a huge relief. I feel pretty stupid for blogging my inner emo but it felt really good at the time so no regrets?
I'm not one for change. I stress out really easily and change brings unknown. Maybe this unknown is a good thing; yet it could just as easily be a bad thing.
Last year there was a lot of change for me. School changes, friend changes, social changes, family changes. A lot of these changes were good but some of them were pretty terrible as well. One change is currently not working out, and something new might stem out of it. Right now this growth is pretty ugly, and I'm worried it may not work out for all parties involved.
Last year I was excited for this, new beginnings and a fresh start. Happiness was almost a sure thing since things couldn't get much worse.
I always thought I was a good kid, I've never been drunk, done drugs, gone to wild parties, stolen anything or brought anyone home. I don't go out often, I have jobs (which I love), work hard at school, don't spend much. I eat a lot, and I'm pretty lazy, and I suck at making plans and responding to people, but no one's perfect.
I worked really hard to be that good kid.
Sorry guys, I really wanted to keep this blog a neutral art blog but it kind of devolved into a vent space. I still seem to have a lot of silly teenage angst hanging around... I was really hoping I could grow out of shouting at the internet but maybe it'll just take time? Who knows.
I'm a little disappointed with the how this turned out. I think it's partially because of the font and little compositional problems and because I just spent too long on this. I stopped caring somewhere and was like MAN I JUST HAVE TO FINISH THIS!
Never stop caring.
But it was a nice little intro back into photoshop since I haven't done a serious digital picture since the Florence and the Machine one (which was like what, January?).
But my next picture shall be more conceptual since I never seem to do conceptual stuff on my own time. And the idea of the pretty art I'm making is kind of scaring me.
Since I'll be handing these in on Wednesday for my last figure drawing portfolio of first year, I decided why not upload these as a visual diary so when I'm all grown and professional I can look back and say man, I'm a lot better now.
These are forty minutes to hour long poses done in ink.
(Ed's the greatest model! Seriously every time I draw him my picture turns out amazing)
And a little 20 minute one
The best of the worst anatomy studies we did in class (20 mins)
And here is a picture of a 10 minute pose done in the first class we used ink. Look at the improvement, and I barely even went to extra life this whole semester (which I don't endorse btw, I totally regret not going more often v_v)
First year is almost over which is pretty crazy! I'm tired both physically and emotionally (I found out this year I have a lot of insecurities about my art and myself, and I'm really bad dealing with stress. It's great!) and I'm ready for summer haha @_@.
Next week I'll scan the best of my sketchbook pages and post a painting or two.
