I like the flow of this figure a lot, it turned out very fluid I think. Sometimes, I feel sad that I drew a drawing on cheap newsprint, but I keep reminding myself that practice makes it perfect! If I wanted to make a version of a particular drawing on good paper, I could with … Continue reading Leaning figure, charcoal drawing

One night I was set to paint some gourds, and... Doesn't this gourd looks like an adorable duckling on its back? ^_^; I think with everything that's going on, we could use a little of cuteness! I used watercolors to paint this little one. It's 8.5 by 5.5 inches and painted on 138lb paper. Available … Continue reading Duckling gourd, watercolor painting
I really should have flipped the paper horizontally for this pose, but I got too lazy ^^; Overall, I like the way it turned out. I'd work more on the values and hands if I were to finish it up.

I also always feel upset for eating all of the beautiful … Continue reading Three persimmons, watercolor painting

The figure on the left took me 10 minutes, and the figure on the right -- only 5. That feeling when less effort produces better results... XD
This one is a 20-minute pose, and looks like she's walking some place important! 😀
These are 10-minute poses. I think I captured the basic proportions well in the left figure, which allowed for a more successful rendering afterwards.
