Hi, friends, starting up my drawing plan 11. Yesterday, I woke up later but forced myself to the writing-table. I starting penciling in my morning pages on the IPad, it took me about 40 minutes to finish writing my pages. I can’t say what I wrote because it too damn private for you to read. Mostly about my issues and complaints. It’s a way for me to unclog the pipe before I move on to the drawing plan 11 in this case.
Hi, friends, starting up my drawing plan seven. I’m doing well with my morning pages, writing the 53rd set the other day. Yesterday, I spent the day on not streaming on IGTV, but mostly Trent’s Gumroad. His experience in drawing is exciting and how he grows as a concept artist. It moved me to continue doing my rock studies. Also, I reached out to him over Twitter to chat about his weird fingers in Olluf with the Moonkins concept art. Even though I had to do chores, feeding myself, and going to work eventually, I managed to squeeze in two to three studies. In the end, we need to move to illustrate plan six for today.

Hi, friends, starting up my drawing plan six. I’m obsessed with a Bluetooth transmitter, and it all started yesterday. Do you know about the Bluetooth device? Anyway, I want to get better at world-building so I can get exciting drawings. Eventually, I want to move past the drawing studies and have something interesting to illustrate. Similar to my man Trent Kaniuga. He is a great concept artist. He is writing a short story called Twilight Monk and drawing his characters, like my friend Nenad. The other day, I posted a new banner on my Deviant art page; it was from my rock studies collection. It was a lot of work, but fun, no doubt. So, I need a plan for my drawing project six.

Hi, friends, starting up my drawing plan five. What’s up with you? Yes, you? You may answer in the comments, as for me, I finished my post the other day on my fourth plan. Later, I wrote out my morning pages to get out all my issues so I can focus on today’s excitement. Yesterday, my girl’s father stayed over, and we got a fantastic dinner—fish with an eyeball, bean sprouts, and pork. I had to skip on the pig because of my acid reflex. For my art stuff, I managed to complete my art studies and finish up my study art book. So, I need to plan my day today.

Hi, friends, going to start my drawing plan four, how are you doing? I finished my blog post the other day. Later, I wrote out my plan for the rest of the day. Then, I ended up doing a bike ride to central park and completed two rock studies. Also, I had to clean some of the bathrooms, regular boring with Trent in the background. Later that night, I had wished I had more time, but I managed to squeeze some time to work on Imaginative Illustrators piece. It was about red pandas. That is a wrap for yesterday, what is my plan for today?

Hi, friends, going to start my drawing plan three, the other day I didn’t stream on IGTV, but I spent my morning writing my morning pages for Artist’s way. It’s a way to get all my thoughts and inhibitions out. Writing will resolve my complaints on the pages. In other words, I won’t be carrying the burden. However, it will sometimes carry over. It helps. Later that day, I got to do a few rock studies and even create a square brush for Clip Studio. I hope that wasn’t big random segway into my art obsession. Also, that day, I spent running around, going to the doctor to see if I have COV-19, and doing shopping at Whole Foods. Anyway, this morning is a brand new day, and I’m ready for my drawing plan three!

Hi, friends, going to start my drawing plan one, yesterday, I had an okay day. I wrote my morning pages. Now I’m up to 48. Each set consists of 3 pages. It’s similar to a previous story I wrote about the Artist way. I’m going to try to write out my plans for each day in a short post. I think it will be useful for me to do so because it will allow me to plan my day and keep a diary of what I prepared the other day. The other day I had done my IGTV stream on Instagram on tracing using the DIET plan from the Rueben Lara website as a guide. It went reasonably well. Then, I spent several minutes procrastinating if I should buy Trent’s Kaniuga tutorials. I think I spent like four hundred dollars or more of his stuff. Let’s jump into drawing plan one.

Trapped Behind Wall, that is my mind for the last few weeks. In other words, I had cooked up an image inside my mind, and I wanted to share my thoughts in writing and drawing form. Besides, I have not told you yet, but I’m into astrology, and it has gotten me thinking about how my mind works. Plus, I want to give you a better explanation of why I feel the way I do, but I figured it would be an exciting journey to experience. If you’re stumped by my thinking, let me know, and I’ll try to explain in the comments.
Enter The Mind
Do people feel anything these days? You don’t have to answer.
They never do! Go ahead though, tell me all your fears and convictions.
Listen; In my mind, trapped behind the wall, pressed like a car being squeezed into a square and moving forward is not an option. Resisting death of all I know, I used all my remaining strength to push through the gravity of the situation. Hand gripped, banging against the blue sky and nobody to hear or see.
That evening, I am walking on the cold sand towards the rails of the dark lit boardwalk city. My hands press against the hard stiff sheet. Pushing harder like a mime acting out a story through body motions, without the use of speech. Motionless lit city, trapped behind the wall.
In frustration, the thin sheet doesn’t budge, but so doesn’t my persistence! I promise you, a breakthrough will follow!
Masters, we are at the conclusion of Trapped Behind Wall, but it doesn’t need to stop here. You can follow my blog, Twitter and my latest stories. Also, if you have any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate and ask and I will answer them.
Now and then, I have thoughts about drawing prompts or writing. If I had to choose between the two, you know what which I would pick? Nothing against being a writer, but I feel that I’m struggling and I don’t even know if it’s having a negative or positive impact. In essence, I wrote that because it’s my solution. At the end of the post, I’ll include the weekly art prompt. If you feel so inclined, go ahead and write or draw about it.
Like any week, I haven’t been writing, but drawing every day, I could find the time. Write or draw? The answer could include keeping a diary or a notebook handy to jot down my thoughts. What kind of ideas should an artist record? Two solutions can consist of, the problem and process. I can decorate the artwork with instructions. It will look messy, but I can say it’s part of the art.
To answer the question above, replace the second word with your passion. For example, write or sports, write or music, write or eating, write or draw? If you have time, try to think about your enthusiasm and how you can combine the two in interesting ways. In my case, maybe the problem is the solution. If you do comment, thank your time!
If you answered the write or draw question above, you are well on your way in becoming great. However, if you truly want a challenge, see if you can come up with a response for Back to School drawing prompt? In other words, write or draw anything related to that cue and include a link back to this original post. The previous prompt was Internet dating, while not a prompt for WordPress. It is in the meetup, Imaginative Illustrators Of NYC.
To share your views on drawing prompts:
Days ago I started a new journey of creating subway doodles. My art instructor, Michael Korosty recommended I try to develop doodles on the subway. He mentioned that this would be a way to practice my eye accuracy. However, my goal is to practice his technique. In fact, a few days ago, I created a video called How To Draw Proportional Spray Can? Thus, when should I practice his way and is there a way I can still blend into my daily trips?
Wait, why doodle in the subway and why subway doodle at all? Well, it all started with my wish to get good at drawing. Okay, not ultimately, I wanted to get better at accurately landing ovals and proportional drawing. Pause, I still owe you an explanation, I’ve been commuting every day and been drawing random sketches. That’s all it is, and at this point, I’m getting bored that nobody is interacting with me. Hopefully, by me drawing real living organisms, people will recognize it and socialize with me.
It’s quite simple; Don’t worry about anything and draw whatever in front of me. If the subject moves away, then I paint on top or create a new layer in Sketchbook Pro. In fact, I’m using more gestures than accuracy. Even so, I feel as though I’m not improving. In fact, what I want is to do studies of my subjects, but without looking weird. In other words, I started drawing using a part of the technique, but I felt guilty that I didn’t measure correctly.
Do you ever look at a beautiful woman and stare? If the answer is yes, then you might be an artist. Joking, I don’t know, but see if you can find something interesting, then try to break down its beauty and draw it merely. Similar, imagine your standing in front of a blond woman who is sitting down, and you want to paint hair for whatever reason. If your lucky and she isn’t looking at you, and you might catch different shades of dark and light. That’s called a study if you can then draw that effect and practice it until it becomes stable.
Somehow I need to fit all of this into my daily commute. Do a few doodles, practice accuracy and do a few studies. Earlier, I wrote about Phoenix sketches, which is less connected to technique and free to rendering what is in my mind. In other news, above is a picture of the MTA subway train getting ready to leave the station. As always, good luck on your adventures!
Gremlins is a 1984 American comedy horror movie😱. I’m excited to draw it to today’s blog post! 😎 Also, “its an imaginary mischievous sprite regarded as responsible for an unexplained problem.” Besides, Google defined Gremlins as a mischievous creature. In contrast, this morning, I did not need to get up, bedridden, and ready to drink Upma tea. It’s a type of grain, also known as cream of wheat. Also, waking up to a friendly face is the best feeling in the morning: a breakfast dish and a touch of spice.
Drawing dragons is fun. Not only, had already finished sketching the lines, and I was eager to start coloring them in. Also, I’m drawing from a book called DragonArt: How to Draw Fantastic Dragons and Fantasy Creatures. Today, I learned about using multiply and screen layers. For example, multiply with color selection allows you to paint on a shadow. However, the screen layer with color selection creates a highlight. After drawing, we had lunch and watched Once Upon a Time with Jennifer Morrison. We wanted to watch the Moon Raise Kingdom on Netflix.
Later that day, I went to the dungeon with comfy couches and soft pillows. Thereupon, I watched two crazy fun sisters play Overcooked and Zelda. Not to mention, I gave them tips on moving through the levels. I enjoyed watching them squirm over losing. In the same fashion, you can get them for the Switch or PS4 gaming console. We played monopoly for a little bit, but it got boring, it is fun if more people join. Also, it has an online mode, but I didn’t try it.
Thank you for reading quick poses.
