Day # 002Theme: Sparkle
Time spent: roughly 2hrs
Comments: A surprise gift for
MaeA very rough lazy art but i put a bit more effort as it's a surprise art gift for someone i've knwn a looong time.
This piece is kinda difficult to express why I chose 'sparkle' for a
friends avi when there's no sparkles in her avi.
To sum it up, it was to thank and show my gratitude for being my friend and checking up on me from time to time and that her art cheers me and wows me so that's the 'sparkle' i tried to represent.
I've had so many feels when drawin this but i'm not the best with words plus im not feelin too good (the heat here is killin me!!!) to even get my thoughts out straight... so i'll let the art speak for itself instead.
hope the message 'sparkles'!
I'm quite happy with how this turned out.
There can be more improvement on some parts like the hair, effects and flowers but i wanted it to be quick and stress-free so i tried not to overdo stuff. I did push to make the shadows more 'shadowy' as possible but somewhere the highlights kinda got overshadowed i think??
I took a break from drawing around an hour in, to eat so, thankfully i didn't stress my hand which is awesome.
I kinda like how i tried the eyes - i did a rough sketch and after painting her, i saved the eyes for a bit last so i used a new layer on top and redrew it a little bit more neatly.
Still not happy with the shape of the eyes thou - needs to be more doll-like and like my trad style but i'll get there!
