Its been a little while since uploaded. Ive now made two dragons wooo!! First one is the purple one. I made her for my friend from work. Very first dragon ive ever made :)

Second one the red one. I made her for another friend and she saw the first and was like you need to make me one haha. I learned soooo much from the first. Also I got my hands on Cosclay. Made the wings and tail out of it. Sooo fun to play with.

My Friend’s Dad challenged me to make the shrunken head from Beatlejuice. First picture was refrance.

I tried real hard to progress pictures haha. Just got too much in the zone when I did this. This is my first clay sculpture I have finished and painted. Woo!

To be honest I have been in a huge depression and this helped me out tons! Thank you Dad for the challenge :)

I made a thing with my 3D Pen. :)

I am playing around with a soldering iron to smooth it. Still figuring it out haha.

Was getting some of my images ready to be made into prints today so I thought I’d make a guide for anyone else interested in making prints of their work :D

Hey everyone.

My thoughts are all over the place sorry. But I wanted to make an update on something. If you followed my redbubble store I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. It was way cool to see I had followers. And even on here! Im not good at posting things and to be honest scared to lol.

Also about Redbubble sad to say im closing my Redbubble store. They keep deleting my updates. I just dont wanna deal with the fight. (Too much fighting going on in my life right now).

So i shall look for something different. If any artist out there knows of a better place please do tell me.

Again thank you guys. :D

art tips post

for all the artist following me

Have two sketchbooks: One for finished and high-quality art (stuff made with Prismacolor or Copic if you use that or art for your portfolio) and the other sketchbook for more messy doodles. This way you have a place to try new things and mess up as much as you need. When I only had one sketchbook I was scared to draw in it because I didn't want to mess it up

Do studies. I cant tell you how much I've improved just by doing studies of shoes, hands, noses, and all that. This works for when you have art block too since you’re not really making stuff up and just learning how real things work.

Learn from others. I’ve never taken a real art class because 1. I can’t afford it and 2. there’s no good art classes/programs at my school. I’ve been following several artists and learning from them over the years and they’ve helped me tremendously. Just please do not steal art because that is never okay.

Break down concepts. If you notice there’s something wrong with your piece then figure out why. You can’t get better if you leave mistakes and don't try to understand whats going on. If the color is weird figure out if the values look right or maybe its the saturation of the color.

Watch youtube tutorials. Here are some youtubers I think are pretty good art teaching all things art: Draw with Jazza |  DrawingWiffWaffles |  Proko |  Baylee Jae

Have an inspiration folder/blog. Sometimes you just need a collection of starry nights or a misty forest or even a French bakery. All of those things can help you get inspired to draw. It could even be completely unrelated to what you plan to draw.

There are no dumb ideas in the creative process. If you want to draw a lizard in a dress go for it! If you want to draw various pastries with faces do it! Don’t let the thought of it being too dumb stop you because if I’ve learned anything in my several years of drawing it’s that an idea can lead to another and another and another and you may get a really good idea just from doodling dumb things.

Here’s a few things that can get you started on drawing better:

Dynamic poses | Dynamic clothes | Dynamic figure drawing

COMPOSITION | PERSPECTIVE | CONSTRUCTION

Anatomy:

Legs

Arms

Hands

Heads

Body (Female) (Male

Color Theory

Improving your sketchbook

Most importantly, don’t give up! You may not immediately get notes or followers but it’s more important you get better than to have popularity. How do you think those popular artists got to where they are now? To be good you’ve got to work at it.

You may have suffered during 2017. You might have cried, screamed, cut, failed, lost hope, and given up. But you’ve also smiled, laughed, healed, succeeded, and gotten back on your feet. You didn’t waste or ruin this year. You’ve done well. Keep up the fight. 2018 is going to be a new year.
