This category is reserved for artwork that is yet unfinished. Usually for artwork I expect to be working on again soon.
After all of the craziness of yesterday, today has been a much better day. I haven’t been home all that much, nor have I been in the drawing mood. However, the show must go on I guess. I spent about 40 minutes crafting a brand new wizard to sit (literally) in the middle of my library. I had a bit of trouble getting the gradient shading to look right on his clothing, and I still think there’s a lot more work to be done.
I didn’t get as much done today as I would have liked as I’ve been in full on stressed out mode for most of the day. And what do you know, there it goes again! My Internet hasn’t been working hardly at all the last few days. Off and on, off and on. I’ve written about it on here before. It just went off again, and I’m hoping I can save this post and get it done whenever it decides to come back on.
That was a whole lot of books I just did there, and I still have so many more to go! However, I have very high hopes that all those hours making books will pay off in the end. I mean, just look at the back shelf there, I think it’s shaping up really nicely. The books have zero detail on them right now though, but I hope to add symbols, numbers, and letters to each of them. Or maybe just a bunch of tiny squiggles.
Hello! Today I got started (and made some decent progress) on a library for my wizard to hang around. At first, I was going to try to make all my lines super straight, but I ultimately decided to have fun with it and just do everything free hand! Even though everything ends up a bit squiggly in the end, it’s good practice for keeping your hand steady.
I only had maybe 20 minutes to do my drawing today, so I decided to get started on some Ukulele Mario edits. Some were suggested by my cousin, Eric. The guy that originally asked for the design. I really just wanted to create a scene for Mario to be in. As I mentioned yesterday, I like the idea of Mario being on stage moments away from playing a tune.
Okay, that’s it for me today! This is two days of slacking in a row. I’ll have to make sure I set aside a few hours to work on this tomorrow.
I had originally planned to add a couple of tree branches looming over the left and right side of this sunny beach picture, but I couldn’t get anything to look quite right. So I opted to just leave this picture be, and get started on writing today’s post. Every time I sit down to write something, I see something new I want to change, edit, or add to this picture. That would be by, according to the post title, I’m not entirely sure if I’m done working on it.
This is one of the first pictures I’ve done (at least in a very long time) that has elicited some kind of emotional response from me. I mean, when it comes to looking at other artist’s work, I often have an emotional reaction, but from my own work though? Hardly ever. Today though – as soon as I added the sun in there – I really got a sunny beach vibe. You know, the sounds of nature, hot sand, cool breeze, sun burns…
