QUICK STUDIES

I did these 1 hour quick studies and NO color picking.....or maybe I did like once.....its so tempting BUT I STOPPED MYSELF. I did these once everyday, except for the long orange one that's like 10 minutes since there was too much space in between mew!! I did lots more too ill post those tomorrow. I've been so busy work and then moving........arghhhhhhhhhhhh LIFEEE!!!! Hope everyone is awesome!!

A painting of Julia!

This painting I did sitting right next to Julia but never let her see this, I think i got it done the following day but was still deciding on the light since originally it is a low key ambient painting. So Julia Im putting this up here now, I loooove yews and I hope you like it. Also putting up my crappy process for it aswell :B

Graduation!

I'm Finally done from school! Four years from now I started my journey at the academy of arts. Coming from Pakistan having a language barrier, culture difference, home sickness feeling, missing my friends and coming from an engineering background, let me say IT WASN'T easy AT ALL!!! However I overcame it all slowly and steadily and worked really hard to the point I got carpal tunnel which is not good. I'd like to thank all my awesome teachers for helping me, especially Craig Nelson for bearing me while I ate his brains xD. All the awesome people I met here who were and remain my inspiration thank you Evan Davies, Richard Healy, Alfredo, Hannah Stephens and Diane Wu for looking out for me yesterday when i was in lots of pain T_T thanks guys! On that note i will post my very first drawing which i did 4.5 years from today when I was about to start (I was 17 then and I was so proud of myself lol) school so everyone can have a good laugh at me, and i thought I was good. This is fanart of ff12 btw.

Also I'm working on this personal project and THIS serves as the cover page for it. I'll upload other stuff I have maybe tomrw. There are so many things I did but unfortunatly I cant post them up because they are amazingly crappy

Aaaaaaaaaand Desy was her namo!

5s and 10s minutes clothe figure drawing stuff with desy! my drawings look nothing like her lol! This semester definitely gave me alot more challenges, which were super hard for me to phase T-T Im glad its over and hopefully the next ones are better than this one. I didn't get enough time for workshop or meet people this semester..... Yes I was anti social and seemed super angry according to alot of people (which I wasn't. It was just alot of sleeplessness. I hope everyone else had an awesome semester. Too all my great super inspiring graduating friends, Good luck on your journey ahead, you guys are awesome and I know you guys will do great! Oh well on to the next one for me <.<

Surviving the fall!

Yesss so I'm surviving so far. I've had fever and flu so far and then tendinitis too in my drawing hand T-T, but an artist gotta do what an artist gotta do, DDDDDDDDDDDRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW. Here's some finished work from my perspective class, or so I think it's finished T-T. I'm gonna post all my other work soon. I keep on forgetting about my post. I'll also be uploading some case studies for the stuff I've been asked for.

Floral inamorata

Enchained in first sight

I'm enjoying the class so far, very challenging and pushing me to go think shapes, variation and color faster. I mean this is not the level I want to be at, this is not as good, but I had no idea i can work on thing this fast. I'm happy to have awesome teacher and also that I'm not scared anymore of alot of work, unless my hands falls apart *DUN DUN DUN* <.< then that'll be bad. Your comments and critques are most welcome and. Hope you guys like. :)
