Okay, so, I'm totally not dead. I just look that way.


So, I feel I've been posting a little too much stylized art and not enough of my observation stuff, which is actually a huge focus for me now, because if I can't draw people realistically, how am I supposed to make a likeness when I stylize them? Also college. I mean, they need to know I can draw from observation too, because that's what I'll mostly be doing there.


Anyway, I hope that image mashup isn't too...awkward. It was just a couple minutes in Photoshop.

Okay, I'm back to drawing cookies and other random stuff from life. I hate to say this, but I actually do enjoy drawing like this. When I said I loved drawing, I meant it.

Alright I'm blabbing. Bye bye!

FINALLY.

(Click the picture to see it all!)

So I'm finally gonna post a new picture. As some of you might guess, that picture up there is for Naka-kon, so it'll probably be a print...however, I'm not sure if I'll use the picture for anything else...
Also, I'm not sure if you can tell, but this is Ciel from Kuroshituji. I'm thinking of making Grell next, because I actually (gasp) have an idea for a picture of him! I still need to go back to this picture, though, because I seriously need to extend the background or SOMETHING. I also am not digging how small the mouth got, but I guess it's much to late now...maybe chalk it up to "style"?

And remember the Artist Self Portrait?(maybe you don't?) Done. Finally. But I dislike it sooooooooooooo much. Horrible mistakes everywhere, but it's passable if you look at it far away, preferably so far you cannot see it at all. But the good thing is that life can finally move on.

Okay then, I'm off to do some of that good ol' drawin'. But before I go, how about I link you to where I'm posting my artist alley work, for those who are interested in exclusively that?

Dead I am not





Why hello! Sorry about the post delay. There just isn't much to write about or not enough time to. How frustrating!

So, I've made a couple things, as you can see. They're going to end up being cell phone charms. Right now, I'm incredibly...nervous. About my art in a setting like this. I don't know if it'll appeal. I don't make these perfect and sparkly computer drawings, and my marker drawings don't look as clean as I want them to. It's really frustrating, because this just isn't the time for stuff like this, even if it's for an experience that's "just for fun", it bothers me.

Anyway, I'm also almost finished with a picture of Ciel for a print. I'd like to make a supplementary one of Sebastian and then a picture of Undertaker because he's awesome :D
After that, I'm either moving on to High School of the Dead or Sailor Moon. I want these done quickly, so I'm dedicating a ton of time to them. I'm using mostly Copic markers to make them, but I'm not as good with Copics at other people are...

Work, ho!
