Digital paintings start from one single figure with a blank (gray) background.

If you need a background to go with the character/mascot, ask for the additional background options.


*Notice*
Upon request of a commission, please inform the style/theme of requested artwork. It would be in your best interest if there were images or photos that have similar art styles or feelings. Also, it would make a significant impact if I know the purpose of the artwork (personal or corporate).

Its so easy, yet so hard.

Hey all...
Sorry its been a while since my last update.
I've been mad busy (yeah right) and practicing a lot lately (this is true) and kind of lost on the way.
But I noticed a few things during my journey of enlightenment of creativity, and I think its worth sharing this bit of information to whoever is reading this.

Its been almost a year since I decided to go straight forth with artwork and illustrations.
And if you have ever took the time and checked out my deviant art account, you might notice something.

artwork from high school.


Before we get in to the bit of information, let me go back to my high school years when I first stopped drawing.
You see, there was this friend of mine who could draw the most artwork I've ever seen in person.
Me and him became closest friends, not only for belonging to the same Karate team (yes, you can call me Mr.Miyagi. Its true.), but from the common appreciation in films, comics, art and alternative rock music.
I wish I had some of his artwork somewhere but unfortunately not. Up until high school, I thought I was the best artist in the world.
And then I meet this guy and for some reason I thought "I would neve draw as good as that guy..."
This shattered me inside.
The sense of defeat. Some inner voice in me telling, "drawing is not your gift.... Its his....." And that was it.
I know it was stupid. I mean, there were plenty of artists, professional artists that were much better then I was at the time. But I think is was the sense of realty in actually meeting another person who's artwork was better then mine, that shattered my egoistic dignity. But that was it.
I think I never drew after that for over a good 10years. Maybe some doodles here and then, but nothing serious at all.

Now, about 4years ago, no longer capable to subside to the itch for art, I bought a pentab.


Pentab experiment

I was expecting by the help of cutting edge technology,I would instantly turn in to a modern day Leonardo Da Vinci.
And it turned out I was anything but that. And then that voice came back again. Telling me to give up. And so I did.
I no longer used the pentab, and it just sit there on the desk over the years.

Last year in October, no-longer capable to coupe with the mundane desk work day-job, and from the desperation to do anything art related, I thought I should give drawing one more try.
I drew on and off, from time to time but nothing drastic ever happened. No master pieces. No leaps in my creative progress. Just little "oh I drew a girl." or " oh that hair looks like a cloud. Nice... "

Until one day.
Struggling to find time to draw between my day job, and daily family commutes (taking care of the kids, pleasing the Mrs), I noticed that, at this pace I'll never get better at drawing. I had very little time to draw at night, and the midnight art sessions where taking its toll by rendering me not fully operational at my job.
It took me 30minuets to walk to work.
Why dont I draw on my way back home?
It was enough time to do 2minute gester sketches with plenty of models walking around the streets.
Enough time to ponder and scribble down ideas for my next piece and come up with a few thumbnails.

Suddenly my artwork began to improved because I was studying anatomy of the human body... My understanding in composition expanded as I practiced with thumb nails everyday. And as I did this practice, (walk-a-draw I call it) I noticed I didn't think that much.
Now, walking and drawing dont mix too well. Theres constant detractions, lines come out crooked and almost nothing comes out the way you intend to.
Most of the sketches turned out horrible. Some, incomprehensible. But some, turned out great, and helped me understand my bad habits and things to improve. But my goals with walk-a-draw was to get as much figure drawings as I can in the least amount of time. If I saw a jogger, I drew him. And when I was done and looked up, if I saw a high school student, I drew her.
No time for thinking. I just drew. Thats it. I drew and I drew and drew.

I didn't think about drawing subjects I was comfortable with. I just did it. I just focused on keeping the pencil on the paper as long and as much as I could on anything. And I improved!
After this I learned more because I wasn't afraid to try new things or unfamiliar subjects.
Thats when I noticed, it was me who was dragging me down. Me who said I wasnt good at drawing. Finding excuses, blaming that I didnt have the proper equipment and avoiding to try. To just do, from fear of failing it.
But now I know this.
We all fail and we all fear to fail.
And that fear tells us to stop.
But thats all it does. Nothing more, or nothing less.
And the more we DO, the less we fear, because then we know.

All that counts, is the amount of time that the tip of the pencil (or pen) meets the sheet of paper, and how much heart goes in to the art and how many challenges we take. I started doing that 4months ago.
I now stand here. I'm not saying I'm a great artist. I'm still just a nobody. But I'm proud at what I can do now, and I KNOW that I will get better at what I love the most.

Moleskin

Been doing a lot of scribbling and digital art lately and my moleskin seemed a bit lonely.
It feels great to draw with the pencil again. Beats carrying around the Pentab.

Be the RED GIRL! ~赤女のsoppo


最近なんでも思った事を口に出すと、途中から自分が何を考えているのか分からないぐらい混乱して来た。。。。
お昼の時間にガンジーを書くはずだったのに、急に女の子の横顔なんか描いてるし。。。。
「せめて名言だけでも!」との思いから無理矢理詰め込みますた。

Be the change you want to see.

う〜〜〜〜ん。。。。名言。。。。

Luch Break Sketch ~ 昼下がりのショージ村上


Despite the whole chumba wamba about Instagram bought by Facebook, it seems like their having a few problems with their integration, or I'm seriously screwing something up here.
No matter what I do, my photos don't showup on my updates and keep hiding in the shadows of my timeline page....
I hope someone fixes this or figure out a new trick soon cause, seriously, whats the point of posting images on facebook where no one goes to see it???

Blawwwwww.......Bithchy me....
Its gotta be Monday....



Oh hey.... No wonder... It is monday....


Insagram経由でFBにイメージをアップロードするとどーしてもタイムラインに載るんだが、近況アップデートには見当たらない。。。
せっかくうpしても隠れてしまっては身も蓋もないじゃないか!
Insagramは経営上facebookのものになったんでしょ?
統合されてるんじゃないの?
こまるっすよ。ザックさん。。。。。

あ。。。結婚式で忙しいんだ。。。
