Hey guys. Sorry it’s been so long. I’ve been having troubles with all kinds of things.. Especially finance and housing. I still am having issues. Anyway. I’m trying to get back to illustrating.. I won’t take many photos now though, I don’t really like to leave the house. I guess I’m pretty focused on the illustrations.
I’m adding a WIP for you so you can see what I’ve been working on.. It’s fan art again, this time DashieGames. You can find him on YouTube.
So, Clip Studio Paint apparently has a competition on the theme “space” so I decided to give it a shot. Here’s my progress so far. I’m also posting more progress on Melanie Martinez’s face. I really like how the hair is turning out. Obviously not done yet and very unsure of how to fix the nose, but I’m gonna do it. We’re going camping this weekend, so I’ll probably not be able to get her done until next week though – even though I said I’d be done this weekend. Sorry!
So, a few of you may have figured out by now that the portrait is of the ever so beautiful Melanie Martinez. She’s so unique, it’s hard not to be enamored by her look. So, this is how far I’ve come today while also studying Shakespeare. I feel like such an art student although I’m not.. Anyway. Her nose got super small, so I’m very unhappy with that. I don’t know if I can fix it or not without ruining the whole thing though..
So, I’m treading lightly ahead with both my photography and my illustration. I never know exactly what to draw or take a photo of – but I always get something worthwhile in the end. I guess what I’m saying is: life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you’re gonna get. And art is the same, I suppose. The outcome is never foreseen. Anyhow, these are 2 small sketches I did late last night. They are both based on photos, one random one from Google and the bird one is based on a photo I took myself. Tell me what you think! They obviously need working on, they’re very simple. But like the deer, they’re simplistic/minimalistic in design which I believe there’s a market for. Tattoos, prints on shirts, mugs, bags? Who knows what the future holds? /Angelimate
Hello everyone and welcome!
Wow, I can’t believe I have my own domain and finally launched the website. I have some things to work on of course. I just wanted to get my name out there first and foremost. Now I can focus on making the site the best it can possibly be. I’m SO excited! Thank you very much for being here with me on this ride!
ALSO! I entered a design competition held by the company OhhDeer today. I’m posting the result of my design in this blog post. Tell me what you think! I don’t expect to win, but who knows! I went for a simplistic feel and had fun with their brand name “OhhDeer”. Our job was to create a design for their subscription boxes. I decided to design the smaller one.
