Final #2 and #3

Aright here we go. They aren't perfect but I'm mildly pleased with them. So here they are. The demon is Ganon and the imp with the helmet/mask is Midna. Both from Zelda. I tried to never use any color straight out of the tube, but I don't know if I managed to totally do that.

Final #1

I know it's not that great, but I tried to use everything we've learned about mixing colors and making a good painting. But it didn't turn out amazing.

Interests Research

I have done several different posts of the interests drawings. I’ve done mostly digital art for my interest drawings. I really enjoy it and so I figure I’ll do something I enjoy if I have to draw and am given free reign. I haven’t necessarily researched much, unless you count watching Avatar and playing Zelda as research. (If so, best research project ever.) I have watched a few videos on how to digital paint though, it is pretty different than normal painting, or any other style of art, really. I often went over the 30 minutes, because if I’m going to create art, I’m going to make it look good, no matter how long it’s going to take. I’d rather take more time to create something awesome than take shorter time and leave it less cool.

My interests haven’t changed all that much. But I used to be way into superheroes and stuff at the beginning of the year, but I’m not all that interested in them anymore. Also, since the Legend of Korra season 2 ended, my fire for Avatar has kind of dissipated, but not much. (Nerd alert)I got (and beat) the new Zelda game and Pokemon game, so I’m a little more interested in them at the moment. And my friend showed me this new anime series called Fullmetal Alchemist that I have probably spent too much time watching….So maybe my interests have changed a bit.

It’s kind of tough to tell whether our interests choose us or if we choose them. On one hand, we like things because they appeal to us, but on the other, we wouldn’t like them if they weren’t interesting. You catch my drift? So it’s difficult to determine whether we choose interests or if they choose us.

Weekly Drawing #17

Two variations. One with clouds and one with the northern lights. It was fun to try.

Final project sketches

So here's the sketches. Obviously they aren't very far done. But I like how the composition of them is turning out. I need to make most of them a little bigger, other than that I'm happy. 

Weekly Drawing #16

Ok so I know it's not the best. It's supposed to be utilizing the rule of thirds and not have any negative space. I kind of like how it turned out but it's clearly not perfect.
