Finally finished costumed life drawing assignment. I ended up running out of time on fixes, so I didn't end up doing what I had meant to do. But here they are!

Life Drawing Characters
Geisha and bride work in progress.
The lack of Photoshop and proper drawing materials at home is making me super anxious!
Can't wait to finish them when I get back to Oakville. :)
It just occurred to me that I never make work in progress posts.
Any feedback before they are finished?
Some brides:
Critiques are greatly appreciated!

A Chef and a Geisha
Hi everyone!
It's been such a busy time lately with portfolios and film work, sorry for the lack of updates!
Quick post with some watercolour life drawings from this week and last :)
Funny thing:
I studied Chinese brush painting for a few months when I was 7, and today's Geisha session was totally deja vu. I find myself really missing non-animation things lately ... like Chinese painting and flute-playing. Will start this weekend :)
Trying to do as many fast pencil-less watercolours as possible.
Critiques and comments are super appreciated!
:D

Animals
The weeks have been going by so quickly this past month! I find myself spending so much time on resumes and non-art related things. It's been a little smoother artistically and I've been receiving some unexpected positive feedback and encouragement from my friends. Thanks guys it means a lot <3
A few quick animal character designs, hope you like them :)

February
It's been a while! I've been so busy with film (it's no longer No Mo Fro! We reworked the whole thing over, now it's POOF) and counselling work. Just some artwork I've done in the past week.

Wee Sketches
Been busy with portfolio and my job lately, so I'm just uploading some day to day sketches that I've been doing on the side. Secretly loving music class ... it's the greatest place ever to sketch, not sure why. Hope all is going well with everyone who shall read this, and Happy Chinese New Year!
I tried a few times to start a dance animation piece of Haifa, but it's much more difficult than I expected!

Haifa
I am putting the final touches on a character design piece I've been working on this week. I'm super excited to finish it and move onto something new!
Her name is Haifa, she is a curvy Arabian dancer girl. I will be posting the designs of Haifa when my portfolio is more ready, hopefully along with a short animated clip of her dancing. In the meantime, these are the rough sketches I did in the exploration stage:
I coloured these old sketches today ... my friends Perin and Caitie.
Had a tiny chameleon moment.
Some Arabian pottery for Haifa's world

Painted Props
FIRST OFF, today (Thursday) was a super fun day, FINALLY saw the Muppets movie with my talented friends Eyassu, Luke and Val and ate tons of fries and soft serve. Thus my awesome mood :)
Check out their blogs!

Since my last bunchof prop designs I posted a few months ago, I've wanted to draw more but there was just no time! Over the past few days I did some not-so-film-related ones, and I started painting a few today.
