Weird drawings of disheveled pretties
****EDIT!****
For some reason, my latest blog posts are screwed up, and you weren't able to click the photos to see the drawing bigger, which is retarded. I'm not sure why that happened, since I uploaded the drawings the same way I always do. I fixed the ones on this post, anyhow...back to the post:
Drawing has been fun the last week or so. I've been able to actually think about all the comics and projects I want to do, and make some progress on them. Usually I get overwhelmed with the feeling I'll fail at trying new things on my own, but recently I haven't really cared about that and have just been drawing because it's fun.
These drawings are of my friend Kathryn, who I went to Highschool with.
I'll probably limit how much stuff I post from the comic I'm working on, at least until I make more progress on it, but here are some doodles of me trying to figure out a simple design for a wild, child-of-nature sort of girl. The first ones are wimpy but I like some of the later ones.
I should add that there's a heavy Shane Glines and Christophe Blain influence here!
I kind of want her to look as though she's thrown off her dress and is running around in a slip.
These ones above are super weird!!
I kinda like her with the crazy hair...what do you guys think?
Here's another doodle page.
I liked how this one came out:
I've been drawing from lots of old photos, and at the early part of the century, it seemed a lot of people had the same eye problem as this little girl. I didn't think it took away from her cuteness, but added a weird sadness (seriousness? I'm not good with words).
Ok!! Besides new drawing, I have some neat stuff to announce.
1. I'll be putting up a new print, and maybe some new original art for sale on my Etsy store soon!
2. Dumm Comics is undergoing a big change...Ricky is now doing Nightmare Theater 3 times a week! His comic is amazing, and everyone should bow down and be grateful that he's taking the time to entertain everyone 3 times as much. Also, the new schedule means that Skadi has been moved to Thursday, instead of Wednesday.
3. GO FOR THE GOLD 3 is ready to order! GFTG3 is a big anthology of sketches from various artists, and I am happy to say I am a part of it! There's some stuff in there I haven't posted, so please take a look! The list of wonderful artists who contributed is long, so click the link to the Meathaus site and check them out yourself!
Seeya around!
