What to do with boring flats

Just a couple more pages of random doodles. The first are some ideas of what to do with these boring shoes I have. I ended up buying ribbon and gluing bows to them :) Mustaches and monocles would've been cool too though. The second are just random drawings... a couple kids making halloween costumes out of bath towels :)

Girly profiles

Making up some random people while I render out After Effects videos :) P.S. some hairstyles may or may not be inspired by all those Pinterest pins about hair.

Head Sketches

Here are some head doodles. I liked playing with the hair ones in Photoshop :)

Bikini Girl PhotoShop version

Decided to do a quick Photoshop version of the bikini girl I drew today. Definitely fixed up a few things I didn't like about her. Sometimes it's so much easier to fix things digitally! (just my excuse for being lazy) Side note: It's not supposed to be me, but I just tend to like coloring girls with hazel eyes and brown hair, and I also just bought a bikini almost just like this and so yeah...

Drawing Club 3 and Graduation

Here are some drawings from the LA Drawing Club a  few weeks ago. I still have a bunch more to post, but will do so in time!

My graduation ceremony is coming up and I am very excited to walk with my classmates :) Since it's the College of the Arts, it includes not only art but music, film, dance, theater, and design. And I have a couple friends in other departments, including one of my best buds, Gabby.

It's pretty crazy because once it's over, I'll permanently step into the realm of Not a Student Anymore, an area that looks down upon Messing Up, discourages Sleeping In or Partying It Up(the last two usually come hand in hand), and unfortunately lacks student discounts. I already have taken a tentative step into this place, having taken a full-time position and being expected to pay more bills and insurance payments, though I am still not completely comfortable here. I find myself sitting silently in the office kitchen while others chat about their 15-month old babies or their friends' wedding ceremonies, wondering instead if I can squeeze enough time out of my day to watch How to Train Your Dragon after work (I could not). I find myself in limbo, stuck between a world who calls me "ma'am" and my co-worker who calls me "kid." Somehow I imagine graduation to dramatically accelerate my slow drift into adulthood, though I know it will not. I try and think of ways to speed this up on my own by dressing less in printed t-shirts and more in ruffly tops and slacks, listening more to political radio, ...possibly pretending I have a baby? But then I remember that I've been an adult for far less time than I've been a child (4 to 18, a ratio of 2:9), and I probably just need more practice before I get it down right. 

LA Drawing Club 2 + Finally have Internet

So here are a few of my drawings from an LA Drawing Club session a while back,  maybe a month ago, with a Bladerunner theme. I finally ordered internet at my grandmother's house, now that I got a new job that will last a while! Since I last posted, I got a position as a Flash animation assistant working on some e-courses for a marketing company. It's not really so much animation as it is moving illustrations, but I am just happy to be drawing for a living (at least for a little while)!

Anyways, that position made me decide to actually get internet here, now that I will be here for quite a while longer than the initial 3 months I was planning on. Yay! Ok, well, Dancing with the Stars is on now, and I always watch with my grandma, but I will definitely post a bunch of drawings from the past few weeks now that I have internet access. :)

Love Dads

I love my dad, and this little girl loves hers, too! Even though it is no where near Father's Day. Every day I think of what a great person my dad is, and how much he's done for me and my sisters and brother. I'm really blessed to have him in my life! :) </super cheesy>
...I need to draw more haha
