Picture Sunday-- Feb {1}

Wherein Treskie is hands-down, the worst blogger.

I can't even remember for sure the last time I posted, I'm really sorry!

It's been a crazy sort of couple of months, and as soon as I can, I'll get back into a proper posting schedule, but until then, I'm going to ask you guys to bear with me, and don't leeeeave!

So! What's going on with me?

*Valentine's Week was crazy busy. Valentine's Day was super long, but ended with a really nice phone call.

*We went shooting today.

*I am in a perpetual state of exhaustion

*My sister is due at the beginning of April and I'm going to be the Godmother. BOOYAH.

And that's the primary information on my life right now. *bows*

One of these days I will magically have time and motivation to blog a lot again. 

But today is not this day. THIS DAY I--- am going to bed early. 

Treskie has a tired. 

YOU GUYS WANT TO SEE SOME ART? 

Too bad, you're going to see some anyway. *le grin*

1.) Once upon a time, the end. 

2.) Sometimes I use blue ballpoint pen and it turns out about as bad as you'd expect. 

3.) And other times, it's actually okay! *Happy Treskie noises*

4.) We listened to Phantom the other night, so... sad Phantom sketch, because... Sad Phantom is sad. 

5.) I SAW THE CUTEST FIRST DANCE ON YOUTUBE! And I had to draw a dance after that.

6.) So, remember the snowball fight from last week? I finished it and it ended kinda super cute. 

*Is awkward* I'm not sure about it, I think I did okay... I need to work on freaking comic-type things now. 

Anyway, ladies, gents, and robots, 

I shall love you and leave you for Les Miserables and bed. 

Question Time!

Favorite overall?

Best black and white?

Favorite on toned paper?

How was your Valentine's Day? 

I love you all!

Treskie out.

Picture Saturday || January {2}

*Treskie apologetically peeks out from behind laptop*

I am very sorry. 

It has been another freaking AGE since I have blogged, or read blogs, or done ANYTHING BLOGGISH.

Uuugh. 

And I reckon it will be another age until I do my next post because Valentine's Day is coming up in like... a little over two weeks, and... flowers. 

All. The. Freaking. Flowers.

Hurray. 

Anyway! How are you all? Not dead? Cool. 

Want to see some art and stuff? Here you go!

1.) Look at this cute day-dreamy girl. Isn't she cute? I like her scarf. 

2.) And then there's this Irish-type girl. I don't know. I like a lot about this picture, I like the colors and pose a lot. Buuuut there's the problem of her face.

3.) THIS CUTENESS. *Does the Snoopy dance*

4.) Uuugh. The problem with this one... is I had so many brilliant ideas, and the sketch was actually so much better than the finished product. *Irritated Treskie noises*

5.) This poor tired person...

6.) In other news, sometimes, after Kate's interrogation, she has some... issues. And... yeah. Yup. I'm awkward.

7.) And then sometimes Tyler really, really wants to punch Tristan in the face. #bigbrotherproblems

8.) SO I HAD THIS CUTE IDEA FOR A SORT OF COMIC-TYPE-THING, AND I'M WORKING ON IT AND IT'S CUTE. Buuut. I haven't had time to finish it. So here's a couple of sneak peeks. 

9.) And oooh he's gonna pounce on her....

I'm excited to finish that, I think it's going to be super cute. 

Oh you lovely people, I missed you! 

Tell me what you're up to!

And I will see if I can go around and read and comment on a bunch of blogs I follow tomorrow. 

Question Time!

Favorite overall?

Best in black and white?

Favorite colored?

I love you all!

Picture Saturday-- B&W

This is actually being posted on Saturday.

How novel.


Anyway, I'm here to tell you right now, that I was not in the mood to color this week, so we have a load of black and white, and I hope that's okay with y'all.

Sometimes it's just easier to stick with my pens and pencils. And I'm best with black and white, sometimes I feel like my color drawings are a bit.... how can I say... garish. I don't like garish..... Hmm. What do you think?

I wish mechanical pencils came with brown lead, because I want to start drawing in sepia tones, but it's hard for me to use regular pencils because they loose their sharp points really fast and it freaks me out.

I really like my pencils to stay sharp.

I also want to try digital art, but as far as I can tell, free programs are not the thing, and people recommend Photoshop or... or a different one I forget the name of. But I cannot afford Photoshop and it makes me sad. #brokepeopleproblems

Right so let's get on with it, shall we?

1.) Sometimes I draw guys holding girls and laughing because love is awesome.

Do I think big, chunky glasses are attractive? Why yes. Yes I do.

2.) Sometimes I draw different poses of guys holding girls and laughing.

3.) Sometimes I draw scary hair. Mostly because I saw a picture on pinterest and wondered if I could... draw it.

4.) Sometimes I draw kisses.

5.) Sometimes I use my previous drawings as references for bigger pictures. (To be colored when I'm not sad that I misread the deadline for an art contest.)

6.) Sometimes I draw Lucy Carlyle from Lockwood & Co.... And discovered that I really like the effect of super dark eyes and thick eyebrows.

7.) Sometimes I draw Anthony Lockwood because hawt. (Also because I just finished the third book of the series and YEAH OKAY, INTENSE, AND A LITTLE BIT CREEPY.)

8.) Sometimes I draw people getting walloped with a snowball because it's almost December.

I did not draw Tristan and gang this week, because they're still insisting that Max do the Thing. I do not want Max to do the Thing, so they aren't going to be drawn until, A.) Max decides not to do the thing, B.) Max gives me a really good reason why he should do the Thing, or, C.) Max figures out a way to do the Thing without making the entire gang and the whole world hate him.

Now that Thanksgiving has passed, I feel I can listen to Christmas music and it makes me so happy. You have no idea how hard it was for me to wait until Thanksgiving. This year, I don't know what it is, but I was ready for Christmas by like... October.

I want to get candy canes and go caroling when it's like two days 'til Christmas.

You guys should give me ideas for Christmas cards because every time I sit down to draw one, I get art blocked.

FYI, the Mary Poppins we went to see last week was stellar. So unbelievable good, I'm a Broadway snob, and I think the talent in the show was definitely good enough to be on Broadway. *dies* So good.

Anyway, how are all you lovely people?

I found a new artist on pinterest that I adore, and when I finish this post, I'm going to find everything she has ever drawn and pin it. (All while probably crying that I'm not even sort of that good. Like seriously, look.)

*cries all the tears*

 

Mkay, question time. 

Favorite drawing this week?

If you could pick one of the above for me to color, which would it be?

You should give me ideas for Christmas cards. 

Seriously. I need ideas. 

Have you read "Lockwood & Co"?

 

Alrighty! I must go. I love you all!
