2 Point Exterior Drawing
Pencil Drawing
2 Point exterior of a house that's For Sale. I like how the atmospheric perspective came out in the back. The forest or at least trees look far away since I blurred and make the values very light.

Charcoal Drawing
This is a drawing I had to do for school of a bust. I think it came out okay, but I still need a lot more definition and to bump up my highlights, shadows, and fix that god awful shoulder. Most likely I won't have time to fix those imperfections though. Below is my block in of shadows and then the rendered version

Realism - Charcoal Cloth
This is a charcoal drawing I had to complete for my Foundations Class as AAU. I'm very happy with it overall. I think I'm getting stronger with determining shadows, highlights and the 5 part value system.

Valentine's Day Speed Paint
So....Valentine's Day is coming up so I decided to paint a quick painting in SAI. I tried to go as realistic as I could while painting this before the superbowl today. Its a girl holding a heart pillow outside with fuzzy hat and fuzzy sweater on. I really enjoyed working on this picture and will probably continue doing more realistic paintings as well as anime. Happy Superbowl and Valentines Day Later

Clannad - Tomoyo
I'm going to make this quick because I've got school work to do, but I recently joined a new group where there's a list of characters that you do for fanart. I need work on improving my hair and artwork so I decided to join. So I created this fanart for Clannad's Tomoyo. I really like the way it turned out. I'm getting the hang of using SAI. I'll post my next artwork.
So I decided to start drawing some more realistic sketches, backgrounds, and other artwork. I will be adding a new folder to add my work there to. Eh I really need to be more open as an artist if I want to get better.
As for the speedpaint. If anyone knows how to user Hypercam 2 properly, please please please let me know. I'm doing research myself on it, but the file sizes are way too huge my computer just crashes. I really want to get these speedpaints going to see my progress and to have exciting stuff for youtube.

Please Teacher
So I decided to work on some more fan art. This is of Please Teacher's character. I tried to go with a more painterly style, I'm still trying to find a style I really like. I'm not as impressed with this drawing, but I do like the way her eyes came out. They feel more vibrant.

Bikini Girl
So, I finally finished another bikini girl picture. This time I tried to make it look like she was on a diving board. I kept the black outlines for my style because I didn't want to make the image too soft. I really like the way the image came out. I worked mainly in Sai but did all my effects in photoshop. Not sure if it comes across, but the bottom of the diving board is supposed to be a reflection of pool water X.x orrzz...it was difficult... Anyway, I also wanted to create a glistening and wet look so that's what I did with her this time. I'll have other ones coming out shortly.

Chibi Kirby Lover
So I finally finished my next piece. And finally wasn't too long XD but anyway. I really have been playing Kirby Dreamland on the Wii and I absolutely loved it. So I decided to draw some kirby stuff. I have several more sketches that I have of kirby themes, so I will be doing that for a little while. I'm also thinking about starting to take commissions, so I will try to create some images that will show what commissions would look like. Okay, back to work. Bai bai.
Here is the process of how I did this image: Sketch, Lineart, Colored Image, Image with Background
I really wanted to start creating images that were more appealing compositionally. I believe a good solid background is important for this. So I created this 60's type of background with the same colors to keep with the girly theme. I wanted to do this to add to the "cuteness level" of the image.

Too Close
Alright, its been a while since I posted because I had to renew my license and I've been dirt poor, but now I have! I just posted an image called Too Close and Too Close again. They are the same image done in two different styles. If anyone gets a chance, please let me know your thoughts. This is my first time in a while doing an image of a couple and I wanted to have that cute feeling to it. The guy is leaning in making the other girl uncomfortable because she is cutely shy. <3
I am including the process it took me to do this image: sketch, lineart, and finished image. (I unfortunately didn't take an image of just the flats and then the finished render) I may in the future decided to do a series of speed painting videos. Its an idea that I've been messing with, when I become more efficient at my artwork.
