Washes

I'm so sad that there is no time to post this week!

... or do anything other than animating! I've been working on my action analysis animation all week, which sadly had been neglected all semester. I have been so into everything else that I'd just set it aside, I've definitely learned my lesson!

So I'm just posting these 5 min watercolour life drawings from Tuesday night.





Also, I'm so excited that mom and I are leaving for London, England on Monday! :D The only downside is that I will be working on my animation right up until my flight so I won't be posting again until I return.

How I wish to be making Christmas art! :(

My friend Eyassu made this amazing Christmas post today!


He's doing 12 days of Christmas posts so there's more to come!
Check it out!

Heartbreak

A little something I started sketching last night and painted today for life drawing class. It was my first time painting with watercolour and digital on top. It was so much fun to do!

The initial sketch actually was done from a scene of The Help, although as I sketched it evolved into something completely different. It's one of my favourite movies I've watched it 3 times yesterday and today while working :) Watch it, you won't regret it!

Thanks to my best friend Eyassu for showing me how to use photoshop to the fullest!

Kitties n Things

I was having a bad art day last night so I decided to blog surf. I was looking through my friend Abe Hutton's blog (whose art is kick ass!) and he linked this awesome website where you can 'life draw' animals. 

Check out Abe's blog: http://abehutton.blogspot.com/

Animal drawing is always such a struggle for me because they move so much but drawing from this site is really helpful. I started with 30 seconds and 1 minutes but the ones I am posting are a range between 2 minutes and 5 minutes.


Critiques and advice would be greatly appreciated!

Blog Header In Progress

SHAME ON ME!
This is what I did instead of working on school work ...


... aaaaand somehow it's 4:35 am again. So much for going home at 11 @_@
I hope I get up for life drawing tomorrow morning.

Also, a promise:
Tomorrow is action analysis layout painting day. No more excuses.

Inspired by Alison Donato. Super gorgeous stuff! http://www.alisondonato.blogspot.com/
