Emotion Haul

Following my week of melancholy, more emotion shit!

I find it questionable how useful art is as a therapy means, but I do like drowning myself in depressing pictures to pass the time.

I won't struggle. Just shoot me through the chest.
...or,  judging from the picture, more like the neck! Amirite?

Not much to say besides it's pretty emo.

Strangling the b**** who ruined it all.
Caption explains all. Man, who needs me when you've got such a descriptive caption?

Huh, maybe I should change the title from "haul" to "double" or something. Not many pictures here, really.

Pink and Purple

As I write this, I just finished drawing this picture.

This picture is actually a teaser for my annual birthday picture of my dear persona, Yukiko.

Hide your eyes because there's bright pink.

So what I like:
  • Focused on two colours I kind of just chose on a limb (no, really, I just airbrushed some pink and purple on the background because I felt like it).
  • Instead of blue in her hair and white on her dress, it's really shades of pink and purple, gasp!
  • Her face turned out quite vivid... before I messed up the background.
  • Coloured in 1 layer.
  • The guy's coloured in the same colours as the background so he's not super intrusive.
  • Background first, people after.
  • It didn't take me a long time
  • Experimented with colours in ways I usually don't.
Now what I don't like:
  • Did my drawing abilities deteriorate? The anatomy is lol as well as the face... and pretty much everything else about it.
  • What the hell happened to the background? 
  • What am I trying to accomplish with this? Huh?
  • Her right hand. Period.
  • The skin tone I chose is so lifeless and unnatural.
  • I don't like it!
  • etc etc etc

It also took me about 2 hours to finish this picture - a first! No wonder it looks so bad, huh?

A week of meloncholy

All I will say is that it happened the Friday prior to the week I'm writing about, and obviously, it's not a happy thing. Bleh, it's pretty obvious what it is, too, from the pictures.

Despite the solemn undertone, I'm really happy about this weekly endeavor. I came out with some great pics I love looking at every time I flip through my agenda.

Note: The days of the week does not correspond to when I drew it, it's just what part of my agenda it is labeled as.


Sunday
The start:
Keep on falling.

Monday
How far will my voice reach?

Tuesday
Melt away.

Wednesday
Earth bound.
She's not an angel, just a girl with wing. The end. The image has been in my head for a while... and I did not capture it in paper. Shame.

Thursday
A stoic, moon-white face.





Friday
Sing you a song you won't hear.

Saturday
The end...?
Ashes and Wine

I've got to say that this is my favourite picture out of the bunch. I spent a while shading in the tones. The entire lyrics for the song Ashes and Wine is there. Now, you'll just need to read my handwriting.

Fly away...
