When you finally at home with high-speed Internet connection.
I got a bit or art block on this, and I got slightly nervous for tomorrow’s to-do list (I have to do something about this anxiety of mine.) All in all, I’m quite happy with this and I’m learning depth on this drawing.
I always use flash/torchlight/flashlight whenever I take my drawings for clearer image but it seems like the black marker reflecting the light. Oh well.
I don’t know if I should be proud or crying about this drawing.
The prompt is “Tick” and immediately I thought of clock tower (tick-tock.) Now, I never seen a clock tower in my life. Well, maybe I had, but never the ones you see in picture books — the ones you see on European-style rural village. Heck, I never been to Europe either.
Then, somehow I had this “genius” idea of “trying perspective drawing,” conveniently forgetting the fact that I’m struggling with it. I mean, I’m not even an art student or formally study art and architecture — and doing it feels like foreseeing me bundled up and crying the corner.
Midway drawing, I almost cried (“THE CLOCK FACE IS WRONG!”) — but I would be lying if I’m saying I’m not proud of this drawing.
I’m proud of it. I’m hella proud of it. I pushed myself by starting a, “hey, what if…” and decided to move forward.
Here’s for more learning and improvements on perspective drawing!
I’m frustrated. I found myself having difficulties drawing Little Cat’s facial feature and expression. I’m not satisfied with this drawing, and I feel I can improve more on this (filing this under Redraw Series after Inktober.)
My favorite part on this drawing is the frog, though.
Quick blurbs
I rarely saved post drafts when writing a blog post because I usually able to ramble in a short period of time, until today, I decided to write about how I designed this blog (sidebar, cute background, pixel-thingy, and the likes.) Suffice to say, it’s, uh, long. My dormant Happiness Engineer-soul came back in full force, hahahah!
I’m still working on it. Hopefully, I can publish it by this evening (Malaysia timezone).
