Day # 015
Theme: Spirit Challenge DTIYS part 1
Time spent: errrr 2-3 hours





Comments: Somehow the background, snake & skin colour are too similar in my version compared to the avi... I definitely need to darken the background.

*10 min pause* I added another layer to the background & I'll let it dry, but keep this version above for the day's entry rolleyes

Comments: I don't know where the yellow came from on the face, edge of the brush from previous mixing?!? gonk

Day # 22
Theme: Medusa
Time spent: ~30mins





Comments: Just a sketch today - while original Medusa was greek, I liked the idea of drawing her like she had snakes styled like braids/dreadlocks?

Oh dear gods the amount of times one eye was too low or too high & chins? How have I forgotten to do a non-anime not pointy chin?? xd

Day # 023
Theme: Draw with your eyes closed
Time spent: 30mins





Comments: So I drew in my sketchbook, then realised it was only 15mins, so drew on scrap paper with an actual plan. I limited myself to 4 markers & a pen.

In the RHS of sketchbook, there are 2 ducks & 2 rabbits. LHS is a face....the long bits on each side are reeds/flowers not her hands!
So on the scrap paper, there is a deer...and 2 rabbits. Except I had to leave briefly so I turned my paper over, and when I came back I flipped it the wrong way so now there's stars in the grass & a rabbit poking out of the trees!! lol

Day # 024
Theme: Style Challenge: Ink Wash
Time spent: ~45mins





Comments: So I have this chinese brush painting kit... really cool ink stick & ink stone pad heart I didn't use the brushes - too bristly now - but brown one in pic is wolf hair & the white one is goat hair! I used my waterbrush.

Also because this isn't watercolour paper, the paper kept absorbing the water & drying out too quick so I had to move fast! Used a tutorial for an idea of what to do.

Day # 025
Theme: Hospital
Time spent: ~1 hour





Comments: I'll do the proper outlining once it's dry - on one of those finish a theme days.

So this is St. Senan's Hospital. Was an asylum first, became a psychiatric hospital later.

...so we used to joke if you did something silly/mad etc you'd be going to St. Senan's!

It's been closed since mid-2010s, they're going to do it up & turn it into apartments iirc? It is a pretty building outside though!

I think I spent most of that time with greens doing layers of stippling-ish & now you can't see most of it! lol
