fudged 2010 summaryby ~sunflake

I edited it a bit because I didn't have something for every month. October, November (1), and December are WIPs because I haven't finished them. and August is just a really awful first attempt at getting used to my tablet.

You can tell that once school started my art life just completely died. Also, I definitely think I peaked in June when I drew Ben. That's definitely my favorite thing that I've ever drawn.

Anyway, this year basically marked my transition from purely traditional drawing to digital drawing. It's still a transition that's in progress, but I really like how this kind of sums it up.

Next year's summary will probably be more complete and include more digital works. looking forward to it! hopefully college apps won't kill me(:

ahh thank you! I think I've kinda figured out my main skin-coloring technique that I'll stick with. still need to work out techniques for stupid irises and stupid hair and stupid clothing and stupid stupid stupid facial hair.

and it's okay. who needs words when there's art and music?

~songst3r Dec 12, 2010

facial hair. i fear the day i ever try to draw that XD i don't even understand gah

but yeahh and who needs words when you can mash at your keyboard and have an all-encompassing reaction word? >.> ahahahahhhhhh

haha scruff is nice if it turns out looking good. it's not as painful as actual hair though, since I usually choose refs with light, subtle stubble and not full blown mustaches and beards

exactly. that's why whenever people get excited, they go: ASDKFA;SJDLFKAJS09UIOJASK;LDGNJAK;LDJ!!1!!!!111!shift!11!

asdfkjl; beards. cannot imagine the difficulty

neither can I. there's an awesome drawing of gandalf on dA somewhere... the beard looks freaking incredible. I can't even fathom how long it must've taken

~songst3r Dec 12, 2010

a long, long time.

Ask any artist about “emptiness&#x 201D; and they’ll tell you about the constant recurring nightmarish emptiness they must face down almost every day as a part of their vocation: the blank space that they must fill. Whether he’s a painter facing a blank canvas or she’s...
