Maybe Ice Queen



So I spent all those hours of drawing that woman... And now I'm like... what do I do to her now? LOL! There were so many places I wanted to put her. So many things I wanted her to be doing. But now I think I know what I'm going to do to her. I think I'm going to go in the "Ice Queen" direction. I just miss snow SO much (stupid California) and winter is coming, so it just seems appropriate. I have a ton of homework to do tonight, but this weekend I'm going to try and finish my first digital illustration completely taken from my imagination, using no references! Wish me luck!

Does anyone even read this?

LAWL! Oh well. Who cares right?

Off to do homework... *cries*

Anatomy Girl! WIP




I spent FOREVER today working on this. It went from a VERY simple pencil sketch then scanned into the computer and turned into this.

This is COMPLETELY from my imagination. I am using no references. I really just want to push myself and see what I am capable of. I spent the longest time trying to orient the head and face to make it look as realistic as possible (proportion wise). It really was just a process of trying to picture what the human skull looks like in this position. So I just spent hours altering everything until I got to this point.

My process was probably not the fastest way, but I am learning SO much! By the way I had drawn layers on top of layers deleting layers and more layers and LAYERS! So what your seeing is the layer I finally was satisfied with. It doesn't look like much... but it took awhile to get to this point. LEARNING PROCESS!

My next step is to clean it up and begin to add color.

This is just a SMALL sample. I cropped the image. In the completed image you will see her entire body plus more. You will just have to come back and see!

I'm having so much fun with this!

Check Me Out On ETSY!

My friend from FIDM told me about this website ETSY. I have NO idea why I had never heard of it. But I am now going to sell my artwork through Etsy.com

Check out my Etsy page!


By the way. I am currently working on an INTENSE drawing of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. It's taking me weeks. I'm working on it for hours a day, everyday. It will definitely be the most realistic drawing I have ever done. There are tons of details! Keep checking back to see when I post the final image (I will include close ups). This piece will be for sale.
