IG stuff

I started using instagram a few months ago. It's a lot easier, but this blog is still more personal. :) I wish there was an easier way to share images from instagram to blogger, like I recently tried on tumblr. I'm lazy sometimes ^^; Also, I'm new to these things, so trying to keep up.

Artflow app on my galaxy note5 is now my favorite way to sketch everywhere.

I had to return note7, the exploding one T_T

Sketchbook pro is my favorite software for line work

When I accomplish challenges in my paintings, I reward myself by drawing girly stuff.

 Some pages on my mini sketchbook.

Files I found after cleaning up my old, but still useful, '07 laptop :)

Well, these aren't that old, maybe from 2010/11.

 I keep forgetting my books at home T_T

From life. I think I only posted this on my FB. 

From a photo

On and off, but still in progress...

 CCSF 2007:

 I loooove sketching on the samsung series 7 slate with sketchbook pro. Supa smooth!

~*~

A few studeeeeez from life last December:

  Flight from SF to Montreal. I was watching the last Ice Age at the same time. Supa funny!

Wotacawluh. Only the chick with a hairbun had an under drawing, SIG!

I miss AAU's workshops! (above and below)

Brushpen, 1-3 minutes. 

It's been a while, so RUSTY aaaaarrrgghh DX

~*~

Something I've been practicing for a while. Since I'm still not very good with perspective, I've decided to block in props, interiors, etc. using sketchup, and then design and paint over them. I know, I know, you purists you, settle down. Eventually I'll use it less. I actually find modeling pretty fun anyway. A huge headache in the beginning, but it's very useful. Also, since we have a 3D printer, maybe I'll design some miniature things and airbrush on top as giveaways or something :D

One last thing...

Rich and I are planning on making tutorial vids on YT. Nothing fancy, more like a vlog style, covering anything we encounter on our daily/weekly art adventures. It'll be fun for us and useful to you! Hopefully it'll be entertaining too. Best part is, they'll be FREE, woohoo! (Rhyming is fun, lol). We're really looking forward to helping out those in need, and generally share how we do things, to the curious ones ;)

Thanks for stopping by!

I've been inspired to pick up watercolors again after browsing through Kim Jung Gi's books and Tiffanny Varga's tutorial vids ;)

Here are my attempts w/o under drawings XD

Value study. I made Arya too girly.. haa. Might revisit.

 A page from last year XD

 

I was sketching in China town (Montreal) waiting for Rich.

Yup, I'm back. My visit in SF was too short!

 I called my dad for fathers' day earlier :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Trying to figure out environments lol

Fun stuff from my classes!
WIP

No under drawings yay~

Airport, plane, and muni (metro)...

Thanks for visiting! ( ^o^)/

Explorations :)

Hello again!

Some of these look silly...

Hope you like them anyway :D

It's always nice to practice different ways of painting, drawing, etc. 

because I learned so much on my own and from friends (thanks!)

 A couple of characters... not quite finished lol

Uhm... this needs a lot of work =_=;

Everybody likes drawling Whitney! :P

B/W from photo.

Sketching from life is always fun~

  

It's V! Looks so innocent and young lol...

It's best to just look at the thumbnail version of this because it's so loose haaa

This is my first storyboard ever (so don't expect much lol). Our assignment was a simple "personal story." There wasn't much instruction in the first week, but I really tried and had fun anyway :) I had great critiques (thanks!) I really hope I do better because I'm considering color scripting as well! I need landscape painting too!

Sketchbook! I sketched a shinigami dude (in photoshop) because the skull was a little lonely :'(

Another skull study (oil) hooray!

Thanks for stopping by!
