Always late

I have not been in the mood to draw anything lately so here some quick sketches. Just watercolor pencils on manila drawing paper.

Meh.

For Now

I had no motivation what so ever to draw. I very quickly lost interest in this and I just want this done.

Due to recent events, this will be the last fanart for a while. I need to focus on the basics, again and try to get some motivation.

LOLITA: the Artbook

I forgot about this!

A while back I joined a group of artists in submitting a book full of lolita art. I originally wanted to submit three but ended up with just one. I had fun with the piece overall so it's all good.

Take a look and see everyone's wonderful pieces!

Chest chair

An old image in which I lost interest after drawing most it.

Another old sketch I found. The face is bothering me. Hmm.

Child like

An old ATC sketch that I forgot about for a while in my sketch folder.

Bland

At this point, I have no idea what I'm doing here. There's no creative process.

Girl Sketch

A sketch inspired by looking at Paper Mario's style and listening to Pogo. However, no inspiration for the changes. Bleh.

Abbey

A little warm up for me. I had no clue how to draw her dress design so I just made it up.

February Sketches 4

Feb. 26 - 28 (No Feb. 27)
The blue version of Day 25's theme.

Another day of using a headshot to create a quick image. 
 

Feb. 29
The final one! A simple pose of a Gothic lolita.

Honestly, I really had a lot of fun doing these. I just ran out of subjects to draw. Maybe, I'll do the daily sketches, again.

February Sketches 3

Feb. 20 - 21
 I was just using a simple color palette. That's all. 

This time, it's fanart of the X-Men. Sort of. I tried to get a portrait of Storm but it doesn't really look like her. Most likely, it's the eyes that's setting it off. Oh well.

Feb. 22 - 23
My mind was blank so I drew a simple portrait of someone. I tried make the face more male.

For a while, I had family visiting from the North. One of my relatives had asked me to draw a sketch of a certain truck. I was a little worried as I never drew any kind of vehicles before but my relative encourage the challenge. I'm a little with this one. I only scanned what I managed to get done.

Feb. 24 - 25
I ended up babysitting, remembered to bring a mini sketchbook and tried to doodle whatever came to mind.

I found images from the artist, Vinicius Quesada. I don't know much about him but I found the images very interesting. I didn't match the haunting atmosphere as the artist but it's interesting enough.

February Sketches 2

Feb. 14 - 15 (No Feb. 13)
Another fanart of Monster High with Ghoulia and Cleo. I'm fond on how Ghoulia came out especially her expression.
 
Pretty much the same pose as Cleo but a little more silly. Can't you tell that I'm having fun with a certain brush?

Feb. 16 - Feb. 17
 This was based on an image on ridsnap.com. I just really like the colors.

At this point, I had no what to draw. This is just a the back of a girl and tree.

Feb. 18 - Feb. 19
I thought I would try something different so I tried to sew something simple. It had been years since the last time I have anything like so I had to do multiple cuts before I was satisfied. I wanted to make tiny bags but the first was just too small. I ended up stuffing the heart and used a slightly larger cut. I got distracted and didn't finish the second one.

Another fanart, this time of Galaxy Girls. Actually, I don't know much about the series but I did stumble upon the creator's blog to which I found this girl. From what I remember, she's in a band with one of the main characters.

I'm back, again

First off, I'm sorry for the long absence. I have been having trouble with a lot of things. Due to that, I haven't been drawing much. I did complete my daily sketches on time except for two or three days.

Here's the remaining pictures of my daily sketches from February.

Feb. 06 - 07
I was trying to do a little landscape for the sixth day but I wasn't sure what to do. Besides that, I was terrible in working in details. I guess, I get too impatient.

For the seventh, I had nearly forgotten about the challenge and I had about twenty to thirty minutes before midnight. A black and white portrait was all come with.

Feb. 08 - 10 (No Feb. 09)
 I still can't draw any kind of animal.

I'm not sure what was I going with this one but I see a rather stiff clothing.

Feb. 11 - 12
I tried to work on shading but more like trying to make the shading look nice. I'm not sure about shading in the hair, though.

My take on a Valentine themed image by using the color red somewhere. This is the first man I have drawn in years. (Well, man-ish.) I'm pretty sure there's an explanation on why there's white behind the fence.

Day 5

I don't know. I feel that everything is starting to blend with each other. I need to actually challenge myself.

In the upcoming days, I might be not posting these on a daily base. I'll still do them but it would really depends on how I must focus on homework. We'll see.

Day 4

This time I used a shape to create the character. I used the outline of my collapsible headphones then turned the image to the side. It was quite interesting and I'm thinking about doing it again soon.

Apparently, I can't draw feet or hands. Maybe, I'll try to tackle those tomorrow.

Day 3

This was much more relaxing to do. I wasn't sure what I really wanted from the image so I more or less just ran with it. I really like how this one came out but not so much with the background.

Day 2

I kind of forgot to sketch something for the second day. Luckily, I had thirty minutes before the day ended. Well, it's not so bad. I might try again at a later day.

Day 1

I started a February challenge for myself. In an attempt to get rid of my art block, I would sketch an image per day for every day of February. So far, I have been doing good. I'm not really trying get an polish look for the images since I'm not sure how well I can do. Well, just for now but if I get more confidence, I'll go for it.

For the first day, I tried to do a sort of remake of an older image (Wake up Call). I first started painting in black and white in order to get a better handle of values. Afterward, I placed the colors and had fun blending them together. I kind wish that I did try polish this but it was taking a long time to get the values just right. That and homework called for my attention.

(I did started this on the first but with my homework, I had to wait until I had enough free to post these.)

Fashion Raven

A rather quick doodle or rather a fanart of Kat's fashion based Raven. Well, actually the doodle is a little loosely based her sketch.

Inspired by Kat (Her Tumblr).
