Artist Rambles Article 1 - Starting New Projects


Creative Process Blog 1: Sketching



So If you follow me on Instagram you will have noticed an increase in sketches and drawings. I currently am attempting to make a come back as a traditional artist. I have been pushing myself really hard to increase sketches and drawing time whenever I have free time. Usually at night these days. It has been an up hill in heels battle so far and I personally do not feel like I am making any progress. I have filled two sketch books so far and will be making a new sketch book soon. 

Back in high school I had tons of passion and drive, there were so many inspiring things to me I kind of kept "books" on them. Fashion magazines, movies, comics whatever I saw that was interesting would make me want to create something. When I went to college my drive changed to where music was a huge influence as well as video games. I was dead set on making everything into Silent Hill or Dir En Grey inspired and I would listen to movie sound tracks over and over. Eventually I burned myself out and stopped creating all together. 


Basically I decided to blog about this struggle I had gone through a hard depression and it lead to a complete shut down to all things creative. I really wasn't happy with myself that I let everything decay. I am happy to say I am working on it and eventually will get past this road bump. So here are some sketches that I made where I actually believe they show how much progress I'm making in coming out of this bad place. I hope you enjoy.

The wand is triangular in circumference which is really great for getting to all of my lashes, it's also very long which grabs most of them at once and since it's a tubing mascara it would need to. My eye lashes are super black and don't smudge or run and I have extremely runny eyes that just pour tears out of my outer corner whenever they are even slightly irritated. So lucky me, this mascara is yet another 25$ way too expensive product but honestly it's great. Here's the down side I do not recommend putting mascara on the top and bottom at the same time. Some mascara's don't mind touching together but sin...

Weekly Journal Spreads

These are my journal spreads for week 36/52. This week was horrible there were such rude and nasty people who just could not for the life of themselves be decent. At my job we're all inservice training courses and maybe the whole planet needs service training. Oh well this weeks over and a new week is coming with more surprises whether good or bad.
