And loving it!

where's that darn camera?

Been busy with uni and sketching.
More sketching than wise with thesis deadlines around the corner. But those 'EUREKA!' moments made it all worthwhile! Posting sketchbooks in a bit.

I *was* so proud to fill up 2/3 of my sketchbook, but after some simple maths...
2months = 62days
70pages filled.
That averages 1 page a day
FFFFffffff!!

This cheered me up immensely however

Don't miss the drama below either!

furry roll

1st painting in 5 years!

Moo!

Don't think I've painted since high school. Don't remember it being ever this fun either hahah orz;; Not very cofident with paint and it shows. Over worked some areas. Made a mess of the colors. Try not to over mix or add too many colors else you're just gonna end up with mud 8(
ps.Priming the paper before hand makes a huge difference!
pps. Don't scrub over your boo-boos. Wait for it to dry first, then paint over it.

White teapot makes another appearance! Think I'm getting the form down. Cap nob still a bit too big tho.

Something there for you too, Yo

For those wondering...

"
For all those wondering why your art teachers or the really great art schools make you take/paint/draw realism, it is because... if you delve into it with acceptance and focus, try your hardest and master it (realism), you come out on the other side with an understanding an appreciation for the microcosms realism forces you into. Once you understand that realism is really just a bunch of micro abstract paintings, you leave realism and go at everything with a completely different attitude.
