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’m currently in a vacation (staycation) and we are literally in the middle of Malacca Strait and, well, the data connection is not super great.
Anyway! No Little Cat but still with little critters (part of the story, I guess?)
I really enjoy drawing the little mouse on the tub.

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.

The tree fairy is inspired from Walt Disney ‘Silly Symphony: Flowers and Trees’ (1932)
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).
