I want to work more on the whole action/drama on this drawing. I’m trying to capture the waterfall, but I guess it’s another day of learning. And with this, Inktober 2021 is officially finished! When you are scared, but you do it anyway, that’s brave. Neil Gaiman (“Coraline”)

I like snakes. I always feel their images on mass media are rarely justified. In Disney’s animation “The Jungle Book,” Kaa is displayed as one of the antagonists as Disney himself felt that audience would not sympathize with snake character — despite the Kaa character on the novel is actually one of the mentors for…

I really don’t have any idea how to draw the porcupine’s feet — that’s the reason I always have them covered on the drawings.

This drawing is that kind of drawing that I thought I’m going to hate, but I found myself interested on it. I think it’s because of the tree trunk texture (the tree rings.) This is that type of drawing that made you go, “WHY DID I CHOOSE THIS PERSPECTIVE,” and you ended up with, “huh.…

It’s good for his Lord to have…

One of my childhood dreams was to be a palaeontologist— the first one was being an astronaut (this is one of the many reasons why I love drawing space — especially Moon-related — scenes.) When the Earth was young, when the fire was forged, when the soil was rich with whispers. It’s kinda a long…

I think my medium-nib brush pen got slightly frayed. It keeps getting this “feathery” look, and it annoys me. This is one of the drawings that I feel “meh”, but I’m glad I took the courage to try drawing rain and the water splash when it hits the earth. I still need to learn a…
