Speed painting practice

All this rain and greyness is making me feel a little homesick so I did a quick painting of Ottawa.

Simon and the female changeling from DS9

"If you ever feel like drawing a picture of me with the female changeling, or me as the female changeling, or worshiping her or something, I would not be opposed."

Daily Challenge Day 31: Draw what keeps you awake at night

BAM! All 31 days of the Online Daily Drawing project completed!! (Except for Day 22)


I really like my apartment but one of the problems is that when it's summer and the night is clear, it's very bright in the bedroom sometimes. Fortunately it's been very grey and cloudy lately so it doesn't feel like a UFO is landing outside.

Daily Challenge Day 29: Make a drawing of something and the shadow it casts


"Power resides where men believe it resides. It's a trick, a shadow on the wall - and a very small man can cast a very large shadow."

Daily Challenge Day 19: Draw a scary monster from your imagination


Daily Challenge Day 18: Draw something you use every day


Well, the good news is that I finally bought a cintiq!!
The bad news is that it seems to be not getting along with my computer - not sure if it's because my laptop is starting to get a bit old and still running Windows XP. I did something very simple to get used to the new cintiq, but it still doesn't feel very comfortable to use yet :(

Daily Challenge Day 15: Draw a bird or animal from life

Sketch:

Without sketch:


Drawn from a photo rather than life.

Day 14 was drawing a hand with my left hand and I didn't feel like my effort was worth posting up.

Uh oh, losing effort already. :(

Daily Challenge Day 3: Scribble for five minutes without lifting your pencil off the page.

This was probably trickier for me than the first two challenges. Goddamn time limits. Good thing I use a Cintiq and Photoshop!

Daily Challenge Day 2: Draw your shopping or to-do list using pictures not words.

 












I had to reference "Hyperbole and A Half" because cleaning ALL the things is never not on my to-do list.

Daily Challenge Day 1: Draw a houseplant

I did the Vancouver Draw Down daily challenge today, which was to draw a houseplant. It took me about ten minutes during my lunch break, don't know if I will be able to keep it up for the whole month but I had fun. :)

We only have two houseplants in our apartment, Kraken (the aloe vera) and Bob (the cactus).
