The Aunt Project

This is what I've been up to this whole week I call it the Aunt Project. Recently my aunt's dog passed away and her other one is really sick. My brother, I would say little brother but he's taller than me, comes up with the idea that I should paint our aunt a picture. This was a great idea so I got to it. I did a thumbnail for the sketch, after that I sketched it out and inked it up, and lastly painted it. I used pastel watercolor pencils so as you can see it's kind of sketchy and needs some work plus I used one brush for the entire painting which was good but had its limitations. It was my first time using it which was frustrating at times because I had no clue what I was doing but it turned out ok. So here it is the Aunt Project. Also I bought some more brushes which were on sale Saturday and framed it for her which was good and only cost me $6.00, thank you Hobby Lobby. I just wanted to say if you have a talent don't keep it to yourself. Well that's it for now, I'm working on something for my cousin & I'll show y'all later.

Daily sketch [05/12-17/2014]

Not a lot of drawing this past week I was mostly working out this whole week trying to get my physical fitness in order but I have come up with some stuff. Lately I've been, not worrying but, thinking about the next step in my education. Just been praying that God guides me in the right direction. The pictures that I am going to show you guy are my recent ones and at least two of them I am going to paint. I've decided to do watercolor with these so here are the sketches for this week:

These next two are the before, the outline, and the after, the sketch, and this is going to be for my cousin that I promised to do three years ago. So I decided to draw a natural girl with pearls around her neck. Also in the little girl's shirt is my cousin's initials which is C.R. So check it out:

Finished Sketch

Lastly, this layout is for my aunt who's dog pasted away early last week so I decided to do a painting for her as well. This wasn't just a dog to her this was her daughter. Someone she could come home to and who was there to comfort her if she had a bad day. She raised her since she was a little puppy. A lot of people can relate to this because in most cases a pet is not just a animal they are family. So check out the outline and the finished product should be coming soon. That's it for today, thanks for all the suppot. Enjoy!

The Destination

I know it has been forever since I posted anything but now that school is over I have time. Here is what I have been working on. I decided to stick with the grey skeam for this but then things changed. It is called The Destination because lately I have been going through a lot and I am just trying to find my place. I decided to make it looking hazy to make it seem like it is still hazy but I can still see it.So check out the original sketch and then check out the digital sketch. Enjoy.
