2009-06-03T23:46:00.000-07:00

When done there will be a ballerina in the trinket box, the fin will have more texture, the hair might not be red, and there will be a much more established "underwater look"

I used a tool to make the balloons shinier. I think it turned out well

Tammy and the Bachleor

2008-12-25T22:34:00.000-08:00

Very cute movie that made me look up pictures of the charming Debbie Reynolds.
Hope everyone had a good Christmas!

YAY! Finals are over!

2008-12-18T20:38:00.000-08:00

Color Instructions:

!. Click either new layer background or duplicate layer--either will work.

2. Click Image at top bar: Mode: RGB (don't flatten)

3. Choose the color you want to paint with

4. Choose the brush and paint on the transparent layer.

5. Choose Layer: Layer Styles: Blending options: Blend Mode (dropdown box)

Click on either color burn (to darken), overlay (truer color) or color

5. Click okay. Where you've painted will look "real". You can continue painting.

If color gets out of place, use eraser to remove it.

I used a picture of myself when I drew this, and tweaked a bit here and there, like changing the dress and adding the hat and pearls. I love it in person, it's so-so on the internet.

More Peter Pan Drawings

2008-12-10T10:31:00.000-08:00

I've decided that I want to make my own illustrations for my favorite book, Peter Pan.

Here are some designs I made for Tink.

You better watch out...you might cry.

2008-11-30T12:28:00.000-08:00

This is for my sister's Christmas card. I don't know about you. but if this guy slid down my chimney in the middle of the night I would probably run for cover in hopes that my Chihuahuas would save me...

Also My childhood:
And now (not quite as cute (-: )

Peter..I should like to give you...a thimble...

2008-11-23T11:41:00.001-08:00

Favorite Book. EVER.

Back to Drawing...

I learned to properly color b&w photoes in photoshop...love.

2008-11-08T17:49:00.000-08:00

I really like this one. Its very dark..which is not what i usually do.

My daddy when he was a wee child (:

20's

2008-09-27T16:55:00.000-07:00

I'm gonna try watercolor with this one...

More 'Punzel

2008-09-06T18:22:00.000-07:00

Stumbled upon an Aurora Picture, and drew this: Think Rapunzel post-hair cut...

it's okay...I'll upload the finished later.

And...I really don't like it because I got lazy..

A Couple Drawings I like a bit more...

Ariel and Flounder

2008-08-23T21:59:00.001-07:00

Finished Later.And Done.

While experimenting with photoshop i did an Audrey Hepburn collage as well.

Cya.

Mean Ol' Lady

2008-08-12T14:23:00.001-07:00

I think I can say I've pretty much got the 'pretty girl' concept down, so I decided to go for something a little different. Still going off princess and the frog.

I'll color this and upload the finished one in a little bit.

EDIT:
meh....

i think color sometimes takes away from the actual drawing..

Bear and The Bow Concept...Kinda

2008-08-01T15:26:00.000-07:00

I was looking at a picture of Rita Hayworth, then I stumbled onto the one piece of concept art for the Bear and the Bow, and something just clicked for me, and I started drawing.

I haven't had a chance to color her yet, I'm about to go run hills with my sister..
(ooh, and does the King guy look like Slim for Home on the Range to anyone else??

Here:

EDITT..
And Finished..(not a big fan of it, but I was experimenting with the smudge tool)

Twice in one Week. WOW

2008-07-21T00:51:00.001-07:00

Photoshop is oodles of fun.

Punzel

2008-07-16T07:07:00.000-07:00

I learned how to paint my drawings with photoshop. Its really fun to do. Right now I'm taking a computer animation class. I'll update later as I'm off to that class right now!
Later

Been Studying Chris Sanders

2008-02-24T15:10:00.000-08:00

Some of these I hope you can see how my studies are coming along. A couple of these (mainly the imitation Ariel's) are from a while back, but last time i tried to post, I lost my password, so this time I decided to post at much as I can b/c I don't know when I'll be back C:}
I was focusing more on bodyshape along with making my drawings and cartoons more...animated?? Haha, along the lines of how Sanders does his characters.

I also have a new animation practice of mine up on youtube.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=-VC1ES_DsTY
It is only something like 14 frames doubled (so 7 truthfully)
Until next time! Maybe then i'll have something I really am proud of!

TTFN!

Messing around with paintshop...

Mermaids (Some of my favorite stuff I've done lately)

Concept art for Rapunzel I'm working on.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=4VrRfQPSeFs

Some of these are quite bad, esp. the portraits. This is some of my earlier work.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=GNWqRaKhsX4

This is the Rapunzel opening I talked about above. Bad voice, and some of the drawings aren't very good, but, I still had a fun time making it.

I'm going to upload some of my old drawings to here too, but they are on my old computer, so I'll get to that later.

Till then,
So long!
