1.) I'm going to to a life-since-March post sometimes next week.
2.) I watched Inside Out FINALLY! It was so good! I cried and smacked Amanda and it was great fun.
3.) I sunburned the crap out of my shoulder. And tomorrow, a big group of us are going to the lake to hang out and do fun things like read and draw and bask in the awesomeness of the outdoors. It's going to be delicious.
Anyway, again, I lacked the muse this week a bit, so I don't have a lot to post, but what I did draw, I like.
So yeah.
1.) The brown toned paper makes me want to draw couples, AND I DON'T KNOW WHY.
2.) I have like 4 sketches in my grey toned sketch book that I'm not posting yet, BUT THEY'RE MOSTLY AVENGERS FANART. And I'll finish them next week. Until then, here, have some Sadness.
3.) Also, Joy, cause REASONS.
4.) SERIOUSLY, SADNESS SPEAKS TO ME ON A SPIRITUAL LEVEL.
5.) Random doodle at singing class.
6.) Amy's singing Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again for one of her solos and it sounds gooood.
7.) Sometimes Kate drinks coffee and judges the boys.
I don't know how to start this post, so I think I might jump right into it.
My brain is thinking all sorts of different things at once, and I'm a little too distracted to deal with it right now.
1.) Currently, I'm just experimenting with the toned paper I have, and I'm trying to figure out how to make it even more awesome. So here, I think she's the moon.
2.) I have epic plans for this one, so it's not done yet. BUT IT STILL LOOKS GOOD so I'mma post it anyway.
3.) I watched this video of Thinking Out Loud, and discovered that I have a type. I didn't realize how much of a type I had until two of my sister and my best friend were like, "He's not that cute." and I was like, "BUT HE'S A NERD." and... yeah.
4.) Sometimes I hang out at my sister's private lesson and draw her when she's singing.
5.) WE WATCHED CIVIL WAR TWICE AND THEY'RE NOT BROS. Ehem. So I drew Cap, and then next week I'm going to draw Iron Man, because I'm still viciously Team Get Along.
I'm gonna add color and highlights and shadowing and it's going to be epic.
6.) Random couple that I don't actually like because she looks like she's crying and that was not my intent.
7.) This really terrible Max picture because guns... He's stiff. It irks me. I am quite terribly irked.
8.) So then I did a more in-depth portrait of the guy. Max is the eye-candy of Tristan and Gang and it's ridiculous how proud he is of it.
Kat and I are going on a Marvel rewatch because Civil War. We're going to watch all the Marvel movies over the next week or so, and it's going to be.... wait for it.... Marvelous. Eheh. Ehehe. Hehehe. I'm so freaking hilarious.
When did that happen? It was April yesterday, I'm positive.
I don't know where the first part of May went. (Oh wait, it might have been sucked into the death hole known as Mother's Day week at the flower shop.)
Last week I was recovering from Mother's Day.
I'm so tired, you guys. I'm so tired. I'm just at this point in my life where I'm always tired, always stressed, and always emotional. Like what the freak?
I've been too tired to draw. That's how I gauge how tired I actually am-- If I still feel like drawing, I'm not that tired. If I don't, I am wiped out.
So yeah. In case you haven't figured it out yet, I repeat again, I am tired.
And I'm currently experiencing homesickness for a place that's not even home.
*Irritate Treskie noises*
Anyway, I'm planning on doing a life-update post sometime soonish, maybe at the end of the month I'll do a recap of the last few weeks, because life's been hectic!
So let's get started on this, because we're going to early Mass tomorrow, and since the church is a few hours away, it translates into me getting up at 5am. (My whole body is informing me that this is a bad idea, but I'm like.... Confession.)
1.) I'm back into drawing Tristan and Co after ages of ignoring them... (They made some dubious decisions that I had to wrap my head around before I could speak to them again.)
"Like what?" "Like you're gonna kiss her."
2.) Ehem, I don't think The Bad Guy, (AKA Freaky Freddie) is going to keep the name Fred, because it's not... evil... it's just... boring. It should be something that sounds evil.
Mwuahahaaha
3.) Enjoy some people kissing, cause I'm a sap.
4.) Sometimes Tyler does stuff for Kate, and tries to guilt-trip her into being nice to him.
5.) Sometimes I don't even know what the freak is going on.
6.) Other times I draw people kissing some more.
7.) Sometimes, Tyler catches Tristan and Kate alone in the kitchen and even though they're just talking, he doesn't like it, because he doesn't actually like Tristan. And since he's not a morning person, catching them in the kitchen first thing in the morning does not do good things to his attitude.
Yeah that's.... that's about it for me this week. I will probably edit this post tomorrow and add the thing I did for Joe and Jessi's wedding, but it's not done uploading to youtube yet, and I have to go to bed.
Like I said, I'm kind of wiped out.
*Edit*
So here's the deal with the thing I did for Joe and Jessi. I drew them a book, and gave it a cover and everything, and it's basically the main points of how they met and their courtship. I put it to the lyrics of Photograph by Ed Sheeran, because that's their wrong and it did something to me lol. So here you go, quick look. Hope you like it. :)
Question Time!
Favorite B&W?
Favorite colored?
Best overall?
What's new with you guys!??
I just discovered toned paper.... AND.... IT IS THE MOST GLORIOUS OF ALL THE INVENTIONS.
It is golden. It is wonderful.
Toned paper is life.
So this week's drawings are predominately on toned paper, because TONED PAPER IS LIFE.
1.) First of all, here: I drew a dance, because even though I dance with the agility of a hammer, I really like it.
2.) More dance.... *Whistles forties music*
3.) All dis hair.
4.) Toned paper.......!!
5.) TONED PAPER.....!
6.) BROWN TONED PAPER. (This was actually my first attempt, but whatever, she looks like the girl from the Hillywood Show.)
7.) GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY.
8.) I freaking love this stuff, it is amazing.
9.) It thrills me. So it had to be paired with someone who thrills me, and so... Gianluca.
10.) Also, Piero.
11.) I don't even know, guys. Toned paper has a way of making even just average art look good. And it's really really addictive....
Yeah.... I'm not a weirdo at all.
There are burnt cookies in the oven, and we just finished watching the third Ip Man movie and I'm on a little bit of a high, because seriously.... Ip Man is SO GOOD. All three of the movies! So good, so martial arty, so... deliciously violent.
What? Sometimes you just need a little violence in your life.
Saying goodbye to people that you don't get to see that often is really hard.
*Angry Treskie noises*
You guys want a life update post this week?
I'm actually back now, I'm not just popping in to say hai only to disappear for another three weeks. Wooo!
*Le sigh*
Let's get going on the first Picture Saturday since... eeeeee, the beginning of March? Wow, I didn't realize it had been that long.
Unfortunately there's not a lot to actually post, because most of last month was taken up with a super-secret art project I was working on for my brother's wedding. And since I only finished it about the same time I got back from Montana (like two days before the wedding), taking pictures of it totally didn't cross my mind, so I'll have to ask Joe for it back before I can show you guys what it was. I was very proud of it. Ehem.
Right, bragging's over now.
1.) Usually if I'm drawing, my mood comes out in my art. So angrily sketching faces results in... angry face sketches....
2.) Finished Agent Carter s2, and commenced the fanart because.... That finale...! (Yeah, I know, I really need to start using reference pictures when I fanart because the people don't really look like they're supposed to...)
3.) Not wild about his face because it doesn't look like him, but daaaaaang those shoulders....
4.) The super-uber quick one that I did while waiting for my private lesson...
5.) KAY I NEED TO COLOR THIS ONE BECAUSE REASONS.
6.) The I-have-no-idea-what-I'm-doing...
7.) Let your hair flow freeee!
8.) The one that I liked until I looked at it again and now I'm thinking her head is a little... misplaced.
Also, I really wish my sketchbook was a little bit smaller, because it's too big for the scanner and hence, I get funky dark splotches on my scans and it's really irritating.
9.) The art that turned out so well it doesn't even look like my art.
10.) The one that Tyler Ward noticed...WHICH WOULD HAVE TURNED OUT A LOT BETTER IF I'D HAD MORE TIME.
No, but seriously Tyler Ward saw it and it made my daaaaaaay.
11.) Here, have a really terrible pianist sketch... that I actually like and I don't know why.
12.) And finally, have the girl who emotes sadness, because I drew her this afternoon.
Alrighty, everyone, thanks for sticking around when I ditched you!
Question time!
Favorite overall?
Favorite black and white?
Have you seen s2 of Agent Carter?
Do you ever think your art is good, until you look at it again and decide, "Eeeh, no?"
