Just wanting to quickly upload some pictures I am working on atm outside of uni work. Both drawn in the past few days and screaming out to be marker penned and outlined. They are both inspired by a combination of Persona and Kobato. I adore persona! Persona 4 is THE most addictive PS2 game ever, and I thank my lovely friends for getting me back into it and I shall never leave it be <3

Enjoy 8D <3 bye for now!



Dr Sketchy - Highland Fling

Right now I am sat in bed with a big glass of juice watching the ever more gory film Apocalypto feeling absolutely nakered! But the tiredness I feel was worth it. Saturday was another Dr Sketchy event in Nottingham this time held at The Glee Club on the Canal side with a glorious view of the Canal and the train station, huzzah! Alot nice than the previous venue. After a good three hours of drawing and burlesque (including the whole new concept of Boylesque which was rather cool) me and my Uni friends who I had adventured with set out to the Yo! Sushi  : D it was marvelous! Tiring, but marvelous. Though after a day of not moving much other drawing I seemed to have shifted a small bit of ache.

Although it took a little while to get back into drawing from real life again I got back into the flow of it ok and it was a really enjoyable day out. I want to post up my two favourites from the event, one of Cherry Loco the male model who did the Boylesque and another of one of the female models ( whos name escapes me ahhhhh ;A; dangit) who wore the most amazing greenwig, it was an enormous mass of curls and loveliness and was amazing to draw.



Anyway I am off to finish my film, catch some Pokemon because I am so cool like that 8D, and get some sleep to talk to my lecturer tomorrow without making an idiot of myself, will post more work up soon. Bye for now :3

Circus!

Our latest Univeristy module has been Circus. Whilst I have set my dolls aside for some much deserved rest and thank them for the grade they manged to obtain me, I am, after a long art dry spell, alot more fired up for this project.

Once again we have to create a ten double page illustrated book, much like I made for my Digital work last term. You can do it in which ever style you like, children's books, artists books etc and at the moment I am stuck in the middle, but as I am continuing to experiment my work seems to be more focused on children's books. So I decided to just roll with it!

I am majoritly using inks at the moment and am enjoying using a mixture of vibrancy and patterns in my work. I chose to focus on Indian Circus as my starting point so I began looking into henna, decorative jewelry and the decoration and colours used on elephants.

Unfortunatly until my scanner stops being a jerk and starts wokring I only have three illustrations to put up. These are very rough and very inky illsurations of figures inspired by Indian Circus I did recently using inks, crayons and many other media. Hope you like them.

I love the figures in this, and nothing screams happiness to me more than dribbling food colouring down pages :D

Not one of my favourite illustrations but I was developing basic figure movements and how to represent them and enjoyed doing this one alot.

More movement and pose development, love the leotard though so continuing to use that throughout my illustrations.

Thats it for my univeristy work scanned at the moment and when I eventually win the war again The Beast (my A3 scanner and printer) I will put some more up, until then I will stick to these and an illustration of a character I designed whilst having some time away from the circus work at uni.

This is Soleme, and will develop her further during my summer holidays. Until then she will have to go around without a past or an outfit!

Signing off to do some more circus work! post more up soon :3 ciaooooooo!
