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)
