a quick grass tutorial
I’ve never really wrote a tutorial before so apologies if this is bad
1. okay first thing I do is pick three colors, a mid, dark, and light. I like to check the colors in greyscale to make sure there’s enough contrast between each one.
I then plop down a blob of whatever my middle tone color is.
2. next, I take my dark color and just sort of randomly place it around. I try to make sure there’s a good amount of both the mid and dark tones spread throughout. I personally like to keep it kinda messy. I also have pen pressure on for both brush size and opacity, so I can have some blending action going on.
3. for the next step I do the exact same thing as before, except with the light color.
4. aight this is where we start adding details. see how you just have a bunch of colors and edges where two colors meet? use the eyedropper and go to an area where two colors meet, eyedrop a color, and then use that color to draw in your grass blades. I do this at every point where colors meet. should note I personally like to use a square brush, but you can really just use anything.
5. you can technically stop at the last step if you’re going for a more simple look, but to add more details I go to the “empty” areas of solid color and just draw in random strokes using a color nearby. it’s just a way to fill up the empty space.
6. basically more of the same idea of eyedropping and drawing. for more variety so things look interesting, I like to add random plant shapes.
7. and so the grass doesn’t look too plain, I add random dots of color and pretend it’s flowers and stuff.
and there you have it, this is how I approach drawing grass.
I have a DeviantArt account now, so please check it out! Link below.

some poses i’ve been hoarding will probably use for YCH later
Imagine if other crimes had the same fine gradations of culpability as murder does? Like, going to court and arguing that you didn’t commit tax evasion per se, you merely acted with reckless disregard for the possibility that tax evasion might occur, and should thus receive a lesser penalty.

Sparrowhawk, after Raymond Harris Ching’s mammoth slog of illustrations for Readers’ Digest Book of British Birds, 1963. He spent a year illustrating over 200 birds, a project which was originally intended for six artists to create over six years. He completed the entire book, solo, in one year, leaving him exhausted mentally and physically, and monetarily broke. I studied his work over the summer, and his bird illustrations have been a part of my whole life.

So you might be saying: Lion why a guide on drawing black people? Well young blood it’s because a lot of people cant…seem…to draw…black people..Amazing I know.
Racist (caricatures) portrayals of black people have been around forever, and to this day people can’t seem to draw black people like they are human. If your artwork resembles any of the above even remotely your artwork is racist and offensive. If you try to excuse that as a stylistic choice you’re not only a terrible artist, but racist too!!! Congrats.
Whitewashing is also a problem. A lot of people refuse to draw black features on canonly black characters. While this example isn’t colored, lightening the skin-tone of a character is also considered whitewashing. So lets start with features!
Now all black people have different noses thats a no-brainer, but black noses tend to have flatter bridges, and wider nostrils. Please stay from triangular anime noses and small button noses. Your drawings should not depict black people with abnormally large noses. (Especially if you do not draw other characters this way)
If you feel like the way you draw lips on black characters is offensive or resembles a caricature,it probably does and you should change it. ABSOLUTELY AVOID PLACING LIPS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FACE.
Hair is so diverse! Please get used to drawing braids, locs,kinks and coils! If you can learn to draw ringlets and long waves you can learn how to draw black hairstyles.
Add clips! Learn how to draw baby-hairs and never be afraid to add color Pinterest and Google are free my dudes! Also try using square brushes for blocking in coils.
OK THAT’S ALL YOU GUYS
Day 4: Spell
The nice camera from yesterday is currently unavailable but this picture isn’t so bad. #Inktober #Inktober2018
Day 3: Roasted
Now that I was able to borrow a much better camera I’l be putting up higher quality images of stuff for #inktober #inktober2018 .
I haven’t uploaded day 2 because I haven’t finished it yet because I was super tired from work at the time. Maybe I’ll finish it later, but this is my first inktober so I won’t stress too much about it :)
lacking an actual decent camera, here’s me holding up day one of my #inktober2018 #inktober Day 1: Poisonous
I can definitely do better, but in my defense I am holding it at a weird angle and I hardly ever draw clothes or hair :/
Found some hands tutorial by me
Not in English but hope it will help???????
Really helpful
The Character of the Week will be the Queen Bitch of the Universe, Kerrigan from Starcraft!
Kerrigan’s hands down my favorite villain of any franchise I’ve read, watched, or played so I’m going to give this piece everything I’ve got!
Per my promise during AGDQ, I’m back on my bullshit. Here’s a piece in honor of the late Dolores O Riordan. I didn’t know about The Cranberries until 2011, but their lyrics and O Riordan’s vocals left a big impression on me.
I wanted to make an homage to When You’re Gone since it’s one of my favorite songs.
Rest in Peace Dolores.
A couple of things. I need to go to bed so here’s an update on my progress so far with and without the line art. I think the shading is mostly where I want it so I’m pleased.
Another thing is I changed the name of my art blog to a-bold-move-art from giraffedraws.
