Monkey King!

Yesterday's CHIUstream was so fun! The Monkey King topic made for quite a lot of variety in entries. Believe it or not I spent most of the allotted hour on the background. Yeah, it doesn't look like it. Either way, I enjoy how it came out despite the unfinished feeling. :)

Magical Parasol

It's about time to start drawing again. I've been so busy house-sitting I haven't been in the mood to draw! All I can think about are the animals and wondering if they need to go potty...
Now that house-sitting is coming to a close, the desire to draw is slowly seeping back into my fingertips, and just in time! There was an INTENSITY CLUB happening tonight on sketchoholic.com and I was lucky enough to catch it. I know there are many other projects I need to be working on, but sometimes you need to get back in the art groove before you can get into the serious business.

Here is my fun intensity club entry for today. The young boy is holding a magical parasol which turns rain into coins (I'd like one of those!). It was so refreshing to work with different digital brushes again. I had forgotten how nice they feel!

Art-less-ness

CHIUStream, learning, sleeping, eating, spending money. This is what I have been doing. Sorry for the lack of art/posts! Hopefully my sis and I will get a collab project going and get pumped.

Here's a chiustream entry for a few weeks back. Big arm vs. big head.

Icky Color

I started doing this "daily doodle" thing on my facebook yesterday and hope to keep up with it. I need the practice. Anyway, here is today's! I liked it before I added color. Actually...I think it started going downhill when the dragon came into the picture. I blame it on fatigue. Hopefully it can be salvaged and I can turn it into something stunning one day!

Facebook Fan Page!

I jumped on the fan page bandwagon and made one for myself! It is fun. You can find a link to it on the right under the slideshow. I hope it helps more than hinders...so far I've spent too many hours on it that I could have used for drawing.

I've gotten an amazing swell of support from it though...over 100 fans in just a few days! I still can't believe it. Thank you everyone who clicks the "like" button! It means more to me than you know!

Nothing amazing to post today...just a doodle! (which can also be found on my facebook page! :P)

More Junk

Sorry for the junk posts. I'm having major art block and concentration problems and need a place to dump the sorry remains. It's how I vent my artistic (<-- or lack there of) frustration.

That said...can anyone tell me how this...
...becomes THIS?!


Commitment issues, that's how! I try to do something serious and then I get bored and scribble everywhere. Fun times.

doodle dump

Looking for jobs is draining. All I can find is boring stuff that any high school kid could do. I know what I want to do for a living and it ain't no 9-5 job! Unfortunately, everyone says I need something for support right now. Also unfortunately, everyone is right. While I look for jobs I'm going to secretly be building up my super awesome artist powers to get the job I want. Boy, will all the naysayers be surprised one day! (At least I hope they will be!)

Oh yeah, this stuff is just a dump of stuff I've doodled in between looking for jobs. It's part of my super awesome artist power build up plan. Draw draw draw! ...and draw some more! (even if the drawings don't make any sense)
