Drew three people at Toast Box while waiting for dinner to arrive, and beginning the first drawing in my Bag Collection theme art piece. ^^=

Here's my style emulation of CLAMP, my childhood favourite. Flipping through one of the Cardcaptor Sakura artbooks, I can't help but find their protagonist such an innocent and sweet girl. They really drew her well. All their delicate lines and simple forms, plus pretty fabric folds and flower petals... :)

One outstanding speed paint as I'm not sure what to paint. x__x I'll head off to bed now!

*updated on 29th Aug: speedpaint of leather skirt texture.

And this is a sketch of a model's hair from So-En magazine. Hopefully this can come under the category of style emulation):

Speedpaints from a photo references! Second one's a little hastily done. T_T

Doodles for Thursday and Friday (plus a super tiny freeflow art on the left corner). I enjoy drawing models like this!:

One style emulation of Mucha's drawings:

And this pretty bad speed paint. I'm so darn sleepy and tired from this day's activities! Had 1.5hrs of tennis this morning, then Alpha course, then tea at le bf's friend's place, and then a social event last.

Making Courage Work - Week #1: Progress 3

Current progress:
DD: 20/20
Clutter: 3/5 (1 doll necklace prep & amassing things to sell)
AOC: 2/3

Here's a combo page of daily doodles (top 4), style emulation of Noelle Smit's quirky children's book illustrations and a freeflow art on the bottom right corner. I need to understand 'art' need not be superbly amazing, just a drawing that needs to leave my pencil. :x

I'll be off to catch the Phantom of the Opera for the evening.
The last two clutters to clear involve me ransacking my room back in my brother's place (which i will only get to return to this Thursday evening) and working on this doll necklace I've been planning on doing!

- - - Update: midnight - - -

Here's one of my AOCs: Sketches from the train ride home (they are tiny and fuzzy with the fear of getting discovered for drawing people without their permission >_>)..

And here's the outstanding speedpaint, which I'm not very happy with. Not very good with water bodies:

Making Courage Work - Week #1: Progress 2

Current progress:
DD: 14/15
Clutter: 3/5

DD1: Here're my three doodles for the day:

DD 4: Here're 2 'freeflow' art. >_< Art from this process is supposed to come out from the absence of thoughts. I used a brush pen for the left and a 0.05 one for the right...

 

DD 2 and 3: Here're 2 speed paint and style emulation combos of Jon Klassen's works. I found him on Amazon while I was researching on children books' illustrations. His works are full of shapes and textures. Crisp, too! His style is fun to emulate!

Okay, I am absolutely flailing at the now 2 outstanding freeflow artworks. x_x Yikes, updates soon!
