Invisible Clock Towers

A place for me to force myself to work on art and portfolio things. If you don't see updates from me, order me to work.

Rewatching some old favorite tv shows and it’s got me missing Pushing Daisies all over again. Ps I got excited to draw and then immediately got bored with trying to get perspective to work and gave up on line work. Forgive my laziness 😆 . . . #art #artistsoninstagram #fanart #pushingdaisies #piehole #tvshows #markers #doodle #sketch #sketchbook #pushingdaisiesfanart #cancelledtvshows #cancelledtoosoon https://www.instagram.com/amelia.nista/p/BvdqicTAaYj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jqga92a8cgys

Consider this me officially recommending the Umbrella Academy. Go start now, have fun! . . . . Why are you still reading this? Go watch, you’re wasting precious time that you could be discussing timelines with me. Also don’t @ me for not leaving room for all the names ok? I made it happen. #art #artistsoninstagram #umbrella #umbrellaacademy #netflix #netflixoriginal #netflixshows #umbrellaacademyfanart #fanart #theumbrellaacademy #umbrellaacademynetflix https://www.instagram.com/amelia.nista/p/BuIgAlJgmkL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=53nlxfkaqwww

Playing in 3D for the first time in a while (so ignore the messy vertices that Mudbox is yelling at me about). Organic modeling has never really been something I’m good at so, while I still have a lot of work to make it look good, I’m proud that I actually made something resembling a cat! . . . . #3dmodeling #mudbox #maya #art #artwip #workinprogress #3d #3dart #cat #catart #digitalart #cg #cgi #cgiart #cgiartist https://www.instagram.com/amelia.nista/p/BuGHqzYA5g6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=udqoz0siqsg3

Hey so I’m super late to the party but Breath of the Wild is like, really good. That’s what I get for living one game system behind the times at all times. . . . #legendofzelda #loz #breathofthewild #lozbreathofthewild #legendofzeldabotw #legendofzeldabreathofthewild #guardian #botw #botwguardians #drawing #marker #art #artistsoninstagram #fanart #videogames #doodle https://www.instagram.com/amelia.nista/p/BtxYE_JAHu9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bbkha1h0zlg

Don’t judge me too had on this one, I had a certain kitten trying to lick the water off the page and swat my markers. Can’t stay mad at her though, she’s too pretty. . . . . #drawing #watercolor #kittens #kitten #cat #catsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #art #watercolormarkers #acrylicmarkers #catart #catvsart https://www.instagram.com/p/BtuuHa0A_WR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dua7zch1lgay

CAT DOODLES! There will probably be a lot of cat stuff on my page for a bit. I’m in a bit of a mental low and considering that I’m surrounded by cats at home, that’s an easy drawing subject. . . . . . #drawing #acrylicmarkers #art #doodle #sketch #sketchbook #artistsoninstagram #cat #catsofinstagram #catart #kittens https://www.instagram.com/p/BtFqsiKA6JA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dsh0dlssjs63

Playing with water color markers. First is the back of my cat’s head. Second is my house. . . . #drawing #watercolor #cat #catsofinstagram #house #watercolormarkers #artistsoninstagram #art #catart #catdesign #homesweethome #home https://www.instagram.com/p/BtCS_Wygqqe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tk5beolnimdp

I’ve been a little too busy to draw lately so here’s a quick sketch I did Christmas night to test out my new art supplies. . . . #environment #environmentartist #landscape #speedpaint #markers #coloredpencil #blackpaper #landscapeart #artistsoninstagram #drawing #acrylicmarkers https://www.instagram.com/p/BsOosQog68B/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=107z61p5qh0v

Drawing I did for secret Santa at work. The first time I met her she was drawing on the lids for our root beer floats and making them super cute. Ps she doesn’t follow me so shhh. Also thanks @wat.daughter for the new markers! . . . . #drawing #watercolormarkers #watercolor #floats #rootbeerfloat #rootbeer #mickeymouse #mickey #mickeyandminnie #minniemouse https://www.instagram.com/p/BrrYSqmAPdf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=23r2ehcwhbt1

Quick drawing of Bellatrix the cat based on the second picture (I tried to draw from life and then she decided to move so that didn’t work). . . . #cat #drawing #catsofinstagram #cats #blackpaper #blackpaperart #blackpaperdrawing #acrylicmarkers #catdrawing #bella #kittens #kitten #sleep #sleepingcat #markers #art #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BreJQL0g01Y/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2r96k5ggbk5y

Wow this is my best drawing yet, it’s literally coming off the page. (Seriously though, cat I would like to draw). #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catvsart #drawing https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq-0sBuABM_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jvgk5e7qch2

Guess who caught the twist, chalked it up to the film makers saving some money, and is now angry about being that close to solving the thing. Anyway Hill House was probably the most perfect show I have ever watched and a welcome distraction from everything for ten episodes. . . . #hillhouse #hauntingofhillhouse #thehauntingofhillhouse #redroom #reddoor #acrylicmarkers #blackpaper #blackpaperart #art #drawing #markers #artistsoninstagram #fanart https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq1jkndAi-d/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cpq2mxkj9pd4

Every year my mom gets a project at work to make costumes for teddy bears which are then donated to children in need at Christmas time. This year one of the bears she made was Miguel from #coco and since I like to help with the props, I got to make the guitar! (Process below if you are interested) . . . . First we ordered a tiny plastic guitar online (can be seen in the last picture). Second I made the clay piece to attach to the top to give the guitar it’s signature skull (which to be honest, I don’t like how it turned out but oh well). Third I sanded and painted the guitar white. Then I drew the details on with #acrylicmarkers and #sharpie (and nearly killed my sharpie with my impatience with paint drying). All that’s left is to fully glue on the skull top, touch up some paint, and possibly put a final clear coat on to stop the paint from peeling right off! #pixarcoco #pixar #rememberme #guitar #cocopixar #guitarcoco #cocoguitar #homemade #paint #art #propmaking #propmaker #teddybear #drawing #makersgonnamake #maker #crafts #craft #crafting #miniguitar #prop https://www.instagram.com/p/BqbwF2gA7Ox/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gukmkvqym2ey

ITS DONE! This is the first sketchbook I have ever finished and I’m glad it ended with day 31 of my second inktober (even if there’s a few pages that were lost to ink bleed and messed up drawings). Also, my bleed protector page has made its way through two inktobers and gets to reside at the end of this years inktober time lapse forever. #inktober #inktober2018 #drawing #drawingchallenge #inktobercomplete https://www.instagram.com/p/BpnFWcRBMgx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mq337bro3aa2

Inktober day 30: Jolt . Ahh yes have jolt three days after having the thunder prompt, that won’t make it impossible to think of something other then lightning while trying to draw. Nahhhh. Also man I’m running out of steam. This is an attempt at looking earthquakeish that doesn’t come across at all. And I’m super late because I couldn’t think of anything after I got home from work. Oh well, one more day!! #inktober2018 #inktober #drawing #city #earthquake #jolt #marker https://www.instagram.com/p/Bplx9VNBr1x/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15y43wbkyje3b

Inktober day 29: Double . Having kittens leads to destruction. Yesterday they managed to open the drawers under my sink and pull out all of the cleaning supplies (who knows why). Third picture are the real life double trouble. #inktober2018 #drawing #inktober #kittens #cat #double #doubletrouble #destruction #pen #ink https://www.instagram.com/p/Bph19aMHXq6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1b6ujzxmf07fu
