Long Time No Post

I haven't been completely whisked away by the holidays; here's a quick little drawing using oil pastels for the first time.

Painting Probz

It's not a fun painting session if you don't get paint in weird places. 

This was taken while working on a big spectacular gift for the most patient friend in the world.

Also, I just noticed how my iPhone camera seems to make a green splotch in the middle all of my photos. Unfortunately even in photos of my drawings. 

More Autumn Photos

Taking photos is such a fun pastime, especially during fall where all the colors are simply eye candy. Going to indulge and work on my fledgling photography skills. Apologizing for any amateurism... I'm still exploring and figuring out how to work stuff. Some of these photos are raw and unedited and were taken at Mt. Tom and an orchard.

Not sure what this plant is but it's breathtaking against the baby blue sky. 

Can't resist silhouettes. 

Tree shadows are my fave. 

Asian pear. 

Strawberries. 

My favorite photo. 

My younger brother. 

Beautiful stone path.

Sketchbook

It would be amazing to design clothes, especially dresses. I just have so many ideas and inspirations but tonight, I only managed to create a simple, roughly-drawn bridal dress (drawn with a 4H pencil on paper). I'll be drawing more because I have rekindled the need to express my visions, and I need more practice. Today was also the first day of junior year of high school (bah), and I'm taking AP Studio Art. Again. Be expecting lots of work. 

No filter! Below is the "Inkwell" filter version as seen on instagram:

Sketch in progress

Hello!

Cool story, I just made a public instagram dedicated to art (art everywhere, I know) that will include little piece of works in progress, doodles, old pieces and junk that I find in my photo gallery in my phone. Feel free to stalk/follow, although following would be more awesome. I haven't been seriously drawing/painting lately so I'll just be posting lots of old stuff and random pictures I take here and there. I promise I will check out your IG if you check out mine, for I am craving inspiration as an excuse to get off my lazy rear and do something productive.

Thank you! Have a good day!

I'm not dead!

Follow my instagram for frequent posts and updates, because it's the easiest social network to use, and unfortunately I can't keep up as regularly as I want to on facebook, blogger, tumblr, vine, etc etc etc.

While doing this commission, I had to get used to such a different style than I'm used to and I love it! Inspiration inspiration inspiration.
