The Amazing Digital Circus | Pomni

May 14, 2024 Time: 2:42

Ohhhh here I am, milking the Big Indie Show. I quite liked ep 1, but I've been on the fence about 2 and 3, since the 'find an exit' central focus has kind of been dropped. I get that the exit was fake, but I still feel that Pomni should be a lot more annoying (ask questions) about anything and everything regarding how the circus works. It's only at ep 3 (at time of creating this post), so we'll see how I feel about the future eps.

Really like the pose I came up for her here. Very anxious 🌚. That's the thing I've really enjoyed while making the sticker designs, I really want to convey the character's personality with their pose.

Traditional wips

March 12, 2020

insta notes:

sketches/first pass for my traditional stuffs too lazy to get all my digital wips together but there's a lot of them (~7?)

I'm hoping to get the spring plants done this week and hopefully get the fall/winter ones sketched after that gonna focus on the bg and flats of the bird for the hawk painting 4 now. I'll limit myself from the details until the frame for the wings is thought out/the rig is made #5 is a mixed media thingy + maybe 3d drawing cos i havent doen anything like that in a while

wanna get the castle bnw detailing done today

hawk - started apr 11 ti plant, #5 - apr 12 algaonema, caladium - apr 8

Well lookie here, look at how much I lied. hoping to get the spring plants done? What an absolute buffoon I am. There is one success story here, though - Rosewood and Iris, surprisingly. Everything else are failures.

AAM Inktober Day 7: Supernova

October 7, 2024

Didn't want to do another night sky one since it'd be too close to the first day's drawing, so I did a character instead. Took inspiration of the characters some people made for the galaxy prompt

Made a tiny thumbnail for this one, too

Castle kill redraw

March 12, 2021

insta notes:

ayo the whole drawing can't fit in the cropping 😎

redraw of the second pic. og was done sometime in 2016

slide 7 was the hair before I realised that it's at the wrong angle

the skull is kinda out of place, proportionately inconsistent, and looks horrible if mirrored, but I love it.

this was my first choice for the discord thing but they specified that the drawing had to be from 2020.

Introductory Sketchbook Assignments

~February 2020

Gr 9 sketchbook assignments that were meant to teach us the differences between the following terms:

Inspiration

Appropriation

Plagiarism

Notes:

These are three characters I like to draw that were initially inspired by the angel on one shoulder devil on the other trope. It's an example of inspiration because that trope inspired me and I wouldn't have reached this result without it. Pen on sketchbook paper

This is appropriation because I used elements of another person's art/work (cutouts from a magazine) and created my own art out of it Acrylic paint, pen, and magazine cutouts on sketchbook paper

This is MY painting. Completely original. This is a totally new concept that has NEVER been done before! Van Gogh who? Did you just think that it wasn't Van Gogh who painted this? You're right! Because it's MINE. I thought we established that already. (Let's pretend this isn't a painting that's well known) This is an example of plagiarising because I'm taking someone's own art/creation and claiming it as my own.

Little drawing I did in a sort of loose leaf paper sketchbook. It was an instant redraw of a drawing (same pose and characters) that I didn't like. Don't have the original, as far as I can tell.

Maybe inspired by Kiki's Delivery Service ¿?

Out of Place

January 2020

Cute painting I made with a decent amount of 3D elements. The shapes themselves are 3D because of the acrylic. Although the acrylic I used bordered on too soft-bodied for this purpose. It dried decently flat and there are holes littered throughout,,, idk why that is. It's not terrible, I just needta keep that in mind if I ever do smth like this again if I want better results.

This piece was rlly big so I did it on the floor. I had a lot of moments of getting angry at my dogs for being stupid and walking on it.

The 3D peeling away was achieved with newspaper and a lot of mod podge. That part's taken quite the beating since this painting was made, and a couple of the pieces have fallen off.

I like the contrast in this piece, and painting the little revealed part was my favourite part of the project.

Photography Assignment

September 29, 2020 - September 30, 2020

I hated this assignment when I first did it, but I'm glad I did it. Got some good pictures out of it.

Gr10 photo assignment. Every picture was supposed to utilise a different photography element/technique but I don't remember what they were.

The last photo is from a different assignment where he took us to the forest near our school and we had to make art w the stuff in the forest. My group did some glowing nest thingy. - Oct 9, 2020

Beetlejuice | Sandworm

Here's the start of an era. I started making sticker designs because I got a stickermule deal of 10 stickers for 1$. I thought that it meant 10 sticker designs (it wasn't LMAO), but the misconception was good because it made me make 10 different designs >:J

Starting off strong w a sandworm sticker because great monster sticker design,,, I should make a beetlejuice illustration sometime im obsessed

Anyways, I was way too motivated for this when I should have been doing classwork, but the heart wants what the heart wants.

I might go back and redraw it in a more tim burton esque style, but I also like it how it is so we'll see.

Also this is the start of me being consistent with my 'signature' and adding annoying ass watermarks because stickers are quite possibly the most stealable designs. (and I don't trust yall)

The Babs | Tyrian, Duke, Marine

~March 2020

I completely forgot that I made this, until I randomly found it in my parents' room.

Again, tentatively put in the timeline. It must have been recently after their creation, since it's just the three of them and the hourglass was a feature that didn't stick for long.

(plus this painting's concept sketch = is in the same sketchbook as my first drawings for them)
