Alice Arisu Wonderland or Bust!

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 track...

I've been a little bit obsessed with making cell phone cases. I always wanted to do traditional decoden, which is on the cellphone itself. Back  in the day I used to cover my flip phone with stickers, rhinestones and 3D objects but  since smartphones have replaced most flip phones in the US I decided it's not such a good idea to permanently cement rhinestones to my iPhone.   So here is where the cases come in. I remember decoden was sooo big in the 90s! Big nails, big hair, big cell phones....but now bling style is kind of a standard. So the first cellphone case I ordered was from an awesome girl in the UK whose screen name is YYKawaii. She has an Etsy store and makes fantastic cases. I decided to make my own after ordering a total of 5 cases from her. So in here I will include the photo's of all of the cases I have ordered.
