Eternal Sunshine and Merry Christmas

 Since I have started painting from this movie till now, finally calling it done has been over a month now. It was more fun then pure studying. Roughly from 10-15 min per. Even though I tell myself to do it 5-10...I doubt I did that so.

I also have to say this has been one of my favorite movie watched this year. Mainly because I connected with the main character and love anything to do with memories. And they are just too sweet of a couple! I love Clementine, so, here is some little fanart for the season. (had much better concepts maybe I will do in the future, I might just look too obsessed then.)

Merry Christmas guys! See you next time I post...which I can't promise when.

Life drawing is fun:)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Weeklies- Ammonite

This is a new weekly thing we have among some of our friends ..and pretty much the only other thing I have been drawing other than film stuff. http://lilcreatures.tumblr.com/

Rein'as lineart me just colored it =) It was fun to paint again without much thought and pressure..need to do that more often..

Not lifedrawing as much as I use to

Something Little

For a friend to give to another friend, sweet isn't it?

In need of title

Just a quick character lineup, color looks different on my laptop so slapped the cheesy orange on just now :P And some really rough layout right there. haha

Well....it wasn't done all that quickly because I have so many characters....but it's fun. I am really enjoying making this film right now. I have to explore way way more, this isn't even me exploring really, just sketched and thought might as well slap some color underneath. I was having a hard time figuring out whether or not I had a style with these designs or if I liked them at all, but thought... this is the most natural way I draw I think? So here it is... the design pretty much set? What do you think?

Now, for those of you who saw my leika, I need a title. So far I have Paperwall (too much like paperman), Ours (a bit awkward? but I like some sort of meaning like it), I really don't know just yet..I know it will come but..not good with words, maybe some of you are :) Oh and pleaseee if you have any feedback for me give me a shout =( Still working on the story here and there~ that'll never stop it seems..haha

Either way, enjoy your reading week or just...week!

PS: I know..I keep on seeing 'in need of life' too...suppose that's true too

Still rusting. but gotta get dusting

Let's get started

First time I think I can say I have finally settled on my film,

or let's hope this is it.

The above is not going to be anywhere in the film anyways,

but it's moments like these that inspire me.

Just testing out the character designs as of the moment.

Not sure if I should be posting my progress on my film or try to not spoil it?

Hmmm...what do you think?

(or do a reasonable amount of spoiling..?)

Wash your face

First try at it, just did it to test out the program and such. 

Does not do him justice! Will try again in the future..

Best I could do with the limited amount of air I can breath in at the moment. *blows nose*

(haha him sneezing would be so much fun too!)

really am not a great comic artist, but I had to do this!

(and this was too fun!! a break day)

let hope his story continues

First painting of the year..

Let's just see what this year brings.. 

After the rain is the sun

It happens to be about rain again doesn't it? 

I enjoy rain as long as it does stop at some point haha. Can't come up with anything more poetic right now.

(This is just another film idea thrown away for now)

Maybe it will be a project for the future.  

Byebyenow.

Rain is nice.

 

Small update of everyday moments that I couldn't resist capturing..or try to.

Doodly Doo

Sneak peak? Not really...

Nothing is impossible though.

Studies

 

These two would be my first ever larger watercolor/gouache paintings (bottom one first, top one done on a separate sheet and left with my aunt's house as a thanks to having me I suppose haha) . just 8 1/2 by 11" but they still took me quite a while. I need to learn how to simplify at where is necessary at plein air. I have stay I do enjoy the smaller sizes a lot more, could get so much more beautiful sights in. But if you have happen to have an afternoon with time to spare and just sit down and relax with some music in the sun, these could be a nice change once in a while.=)

Attempt to giving up to keep on trying.

Attempted to paint from memory. Gave up to reference my original sketch.
Still gotta keep on trying to improve...that is all=)
