★ Theme: Lemur
★ Time spent: 56 mins

Story time. I'm gonna try to keep this as short as I can. (lol)
Original plan: use markers ...to draw a lemur
I decided to be smart and thumbnail my idea digitally first so I wouldn't have to erase a bunch on paper. (I erased a lot for the recent colored pencil prompt.)
However, I continued digitally and nixed the marker plan cuz my idea morphed as I drew.
Original idea: A pink&purple lemur, sitting in basically this pose, circle bg, and green foliage around it. It was gonna be a standard lemur, aside from the fur color.
What happened: First, sorry to anyone here who loves lemurs: I don't think they're cute. Well, they're cute in my mind until I see an image and remember that they aren't cute.
And I wanted to draw something cute.
I looked at images of lemurs and remembered that they aren't cute. (cute cute cute cute... it's the best descriptor here)
New plan: Draw from imagination. I went for rounded fur shapes to try to keep it simplistic and cute.
Downfall: The pose I drew wasn't working out.
New plan: The way I drew the arm made me want to add droopy sleeves. So I added a hoodie / bunny hug. I also added pants cuz I find the Winnie-the-Pooh-and-Donald-Duck style awkward. I used clothing as a copout to hide how bad it was going.
I nixed the foliage since I didn't want to complicate the colors. I wanted to use fun, bold colors... but not a ton of them.
I like the final outcome. This is a lemur in clothing all drawn without ref.
I had to get the ref back out for the coloring tho. I colored it in... then double checked a ref.. and saw I'd gotten the markings and coloration wrong. > <; Fixed that.
Also also, my app doesn't have a good "fill" function. It leaves pixel artifacts alllll over. So a lot of my time is spent just flat filling. <.<
@the art in the spoiler:
That's my Lemur art for the 100th day of the 2020 event.
I found it humorous that I added clothing to today's lemur since I added clothing last time I drew a lemur too. That one wasn't a copout. I did a VSCO girl theme for that one cuz I found it amusing to juxtapose an animal I didn't find cute in that cutesy pose.
It had been a long time since I last looked at my VCSO girl lemur. It's a good reminder that I need to copy some of my older art. I still do a lot of the same tricks, but I keep too many "styles."
I keep saying that I need to make a folder of my own fav art old to continue to make art choices that I like. I still haven't. This one wouldn't have been on my radar, but I like it. It's nice to look back at my old art and like it.
Medium Challenge: Markers (paint markers OK); Tiredness; Lemur; Mountains; Capricorn; Marriage |
