cartographer

My Omi made the first Christmas cookies of the season today. It made me very happy. <3

Anyway, here are the lines for the back cover of the next issue of our school's Cartooning magazine, Inkstains.

I had a lot of fun with this. I used The Atlas of Pern as my main ref...that cartographer has such a beautiful way of illustrating things. All the names refer to teachers/well-known figures in the Cartooning department and also incorporates a few names of dorms in SVA. <3

more Pokémans

AAHHH I have become so nonexistent on my sites lately...I feel really bad about it. I'll try to post more here from now on. <3

It's mainly due to the complete illegibility of my sketches, if I even sketch at all nowadays, I'm so busy. these are some of the more legible ones. funny how most of them are pokémon related...XD;; <3


I plan on starting a comic-a-day journal soon, so I will be posting those here. therefore, there will be more updates to be had. yay!

academia III

I just got out of my Watercolor class. It's turning out to be amazing, and it's all due to my teacher, David Soman. He is a master, and has somehow taught me how to start to use this medium that I am normally HORRIBLE at. He has taught me how to love this medium and really given me a new respect for it. He is completely unbiased and always gives such amazing advice, and is overall just the best teacher I have ever had. I really want to take him again next year for his advanced class.

I haven't posted some of my works from the previous classes yet because it looks like a 10-year-old did them, but now I think I am finally getting the hang of it and am a bit more comfortable showing you guys something.

first gestures of the day
Study 1

little longer pose
Study 2

final pose
Study 3

I'm pretty happy with this last one...when I compare now to the beginning, I just can't believe how much I've learned about value, color, form, design...everything.

Looking back, I'm just so happy that the Gouache class didn't fit into my schedule!! lol

monkey love

A Comic page I did for class. Assignment was to draw your first crush/romance/kiss, so I choose the first kiss, only.....well, see for yourself.

click on thumbnail to fullview:


still needs to be inked, but I think we're doing that in class since some people still don't know how to. O___o;;;

haha sad part is, it really does resemble my boyfriend. XDDD when he saw this, he was all "omigod I still can't believe I actually said that...>__<;;" rofl <3


Tomorrow we're going to go see Blue Man Group!!! I'm so excited~!!! haha, I finished all my h/w for the week so I could have that night off...school is insane, but it's manageable. ^____^

academia II

hai guyz. I busy. but I shall post a quickie.

progress shot you probably can't make out of a comic I'm working on about PETA and a chicken.



a self portrait I did for my first assignment in drawing. the teacher mistook me for an illustration major, and coming from someone like him, it was a huge compliment. especially since I've never seriously used charcoals before and had no idea what the hell I was doing. lol



bada-boom, motha trucka!

academia

school started...this year is insane. from a class the teacher calls 'Torture Therapy' to other hardcore studies, this year promises to be one of my biggest challenges yet. It's very exciting. I'm looking forward to learning a lot from my amazing teachers.

yo

woo for Sketchblogs! this will literally be my e-sketchbook, and I'll try to keep it as nice and updated as I can, even though this school year is gonna be a killer. so we'll see how it works out. lol

Let's get it started right away, then.

Some random Sketches:

why the fuck aren't these working.

...seriously, it should be working.

...fuck it.

this sketch evolved into this piece:


http://firecloud.deviantart.com/art/Touch-The-Flying-Pig-96442497


aaand here is a pic I am currently pulling my hair out over:



the white Violin from The Umbrella Academy~<3


even in the blocking stages the sketch drastically changes.



like damn. white is easily the most difficult color to shade/color properly.
after this picture is finally finished, I will only have this to say:

...fuck violins.


haha I want to make my style into something alluringly grotesque. I hope it will grow on you. and if it doesn't, I don't really care. lol

<3
