Night Slayer

Here is a remake of a very old drawing. It's a WIP (work in progress) so don't think it is done yet. Night Slayer is the name of the piece and the original version is so old it would take some time going through my files to find it. Just to let you know how old the image is: it was the first digital drawing I ever did, which was back in 2007.

I have to do a shout out to my friend Caitlin who was telling me about how to do make-up shadows on men and women. For some reason it did not occur to me that the shadows would be different between men's and women's faces. *face palm* So with that in mind I decided to play with shadows and do this painting. I hope you can tell it's a guy because looking back at the old painting the viewer couldn't tell if it was a boy or girl.

Thank you Caitlin!

Edit: wow, my painting looked a lot better before blogger shot down the resolution.

What I was Doing the other Day

Got back from christmas and started this little work study of the Washington DC Temple for my Mom.

Now I'm working on cleaning and reorganizing the house. Once that is done I'll me going back to painting and to start sewing things for Miss Utah Plus!

Char

So I have this crazy idea that I will start posting on my blog again. Crazy right :)

Also I have a goal that I will upload a picture a day. Don't think I'll be able to complete that goal everyday but I will try. It's always nice to improve my drawing every day be drawing. shocker.

This is Char, my Dungeon and Dragons character.

Pain

Sorry I have no art to post. Only the need to express the pain I feel from not having my implements do draw with. I brought my Wacom tablet to draw with over the Christmas brake but I forgot to pack the special pen that I HAVE to have in order to use my table. So for the past two weeks I have not been able to draw anything. It's New Years Eve and there is a strange sensations in my arm and hand. Like an alcoholic my hand is suffering from withdrawals. I want/need to draw. Not being able to draw is the worst crime that can be committed to an artist.
It's literal pain.
I am happy to be getting back to Provo and my implements.

Until then this is the only art I can try to make:

Evil snicker, evil grin.
Useless bicker, useless sin.
Just give me a paint brush, or give me a pen,
And give me an hour and times it by ten.
I'll give you a picture for you to prize,
Or a pitiful poem that could be despise.

Useless art is useless beauty.
Something to worship, something to pity.
To stir emotion is something to merit,
Think it worthless...
...Yet I need it.

Happy New Years!

Close Your Eyes and Sign your name

this turned into my freshman project. I approached 700 strangers and asked them if they could spend a moment of their time and sign their name in my little black book with their eyes closed.
