Um, it's a lot more organized. Yeah. You are welcome to be offended.

Heavy on Images

Sketchbook stuff from summer to present. Current tiny sketchbook is for class, supposed to be a drawing a day... there's a good mix of terrible and okay, mostly lazy bad.

A sort of self-portrait, I suppose. 

"What are you looking at?"

"I don't know... something, I think."

References used. Two kings of different eras and proportions.

I could say I was going for shock factor. 

I like these dollar tree pens because they bleed, not blob. The only downside is that the ink runs out super fast.

Ho ho ho May my lack of wit convince you that I am a pervert, but only because my mum told me I was one.

This may just be an inner excuse for not being a great artist, but I am strangely drawn to shitty drawings. Maybe it's a hipster thing.

Quick in class still life. Whatevs. 

Actually it's getting better, hooray for life non-sucking!

Ugh 

I really like this white gel pen, but I'm not entirely sure how to fully utilize it without using a shitload of ink or without dying from sharpie fumes... because I hate sharpie smell. 

Some poet said something like, "dark in the dark," and I thought it was cool.

Probably the day I forgot to put myself on the keylist and had to do a shit ton of shitty self-portraits.

I got that in a kinderegg. Their surPrizes suck now. So sad. 

Ugh I saw a kid with a wolf tail at school the other week. Shortly after reading an Internet meme about hot topic ruining Internet memes ahahahahaha they are already ruins from birth

Note to everyone in the universe: Make spares of your keys. Especially your car keys in case you happen to lock your keys in the trunk of your car that doesn't have back seats that fold down and doesn't have automatic trunk opener by the gas tank release. FFFFFFFFFFFFFF

I haven't touched that comic like I said I would. I am a bad boyfriend. 

Another in class still. Ever since watercolor however many semesters ago, I loathe paper bags. And yet one of the watercolors I did of paper bags is one of my favorites of my own pieces.

Da Vinci master copy. I have no idea how he makes these figures so natural and organic. I can copy fine, but how do I do it from the mindddd????

F UUUUUUUUU da vinci

I did it for the lulz. Messed up the faces.

My new muse is personified marshmallows. Seriously, not kidding. They bring me such inexplicable joy amidst their lonely groupings. 

Eventually, this is how our band is going to be. Again, seriously, not kidding. 

Concept sketches for a comic that will prolly look just about the same. I did a slightly larger version on newsprint, and the original original is in a notebook. I figure that if I draw it enough, something will happen. 

haha jk NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.

Yeah.

I was waiting for everyone to finish the English test today and I just can't not write on something that's white and blank. That's like dangling a fresh vagina in front of a serial rapist (too graphic? my only excuse is that I am an artist.). So I drew a marshmallow man falling to his knees [repetitious image] near a ledge and I just... don't know. I was slightly [under-exaggerated] overcome by gassy laughter that I had to suppress due to the test not being done yet. Yet at the same time, while I couldn't help but smirk, I felt a tearful sadness about my eyes. It was weird. I came to the conclusion, as I constantly do [self-fulfilling prophecy?], that I am literally going crazy. But I guess that's okay if I'm therefore happy most of the time. 

Urggggghhh

Just ended up doing another self-portrait instead of fixing the other one. UGHHHHHHHHH. But I had already wiped off the top half of the other one. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

The bottom one took about an hour and I only used burnt umber and yellow ochre mostly, with some white and alizarin crimson for the red parts. I guess it must take a lot of time for me to process colors. I still don't get it.

I can't paint my face right. Ughhhhhh this is so much easier when painting other people in class for 5 minutes each.

UGHHHHH SO BEHIND ON WORK ALREADY

WASSAP MOTHAFFFFFFFFF

Current homework: 4 self-portraits with hats, 2 paintings / 2 charcoal [no smudging]

You'd be surprised at how much homework and time you have to invest as an art major. And you can't really bullshit this in terms of time. Almost makes me miss accounting. Almost. Hahahahahahahahahaha accounting. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Pretty accurate, right? ahahahahahahaha ugh. Still trying to explore extreme colors. It always ends up green and muddy. Buh.

[second later edit]

SHIT I forgot that I was supposed to put a hat or scarf in there. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I just spent like 3 hours on this ugh I hate my life

Late Night Art

Brainstorming for ideas for my art final. Pretty much a free for all. Whatever.

For these, I wanted to use typically happier and "girlier" colors [pink, purple, and orange] with light lines to make sort of angrier and heavier image content.  

I think I'm going to add text to this one just to keep it consistent with the others, but I haven't thought of placement. I like this though. I know it's bullshit to say, "I'll leave it up to the viewer to determine the meaning," but I like the idea of not knowing what he's actually doing. Maybe he's strangling someone, about to stab them. Maybe he's a really passionate butcher at a meat shop. Maybe his worst enemy just fucked his girlfriend and he's really pissed off. I don't know. 

This one came from nowhere, but I really like it. Sort of has a blunt yet vague message about pregnancy and... I don't know, obesity? Maybe it's like being sucker punched by a Justin Beiber pillow. [This is where you say, "What does that even mean?"]

Sorry for the crappy piece-together scan. I think I'll redo this one one day. 

Creepy, right?

And then this is where I gave up and went to bed. [after thought: Sleep is for the week.]
