Storybook-ish work set 2+bonus

<Yea...got reaaaaaaaaaallllly bored and tired drawing out all this cutesy kiddy stuff. Half wished i could draw in Charlotte on the next page but I had to finish all this today so this was the most I could do.

Then besides trying to finish these had a hand in helping my sis come up with a cover composition for her Polterguys comic.

Storybook-ish work set 1

 bleh. got 4 more pages to churn out for my aunty's project class. She made the story, I just make pictures. XD;

Friends and comics

Ugh. I am so bad at not checking my doodles before I shrink them. B|

Anyway, this day was sort of productive on a couple of things. Some comic drawings, but mostly just chatting with old friends all day online, and then new friends throughout the night in the dorm.

Speaking of dorm- holy cow we are spoiled. Our general RA's given us so much nice stuff to organize our kitchen- we've even got a frickin spice rack to hold the community spices! XDXD I'm going to miss all the quietness and cleanliness of this place before the others come back.

Blah day

Night before the dorms open up again. Annoyed at a couple of reasons.

-Having to pack again.
-Having to pick up our room and gate keys on the Other dormitory, which is located right next to school campus, which are both super far from the dorm.
-That sickening thought form of unaccomplishment creeping up on me.

The day was pretty okay listening to my sister watch Parks and Recreation.

Byebye bro

JJ had a slight panic attack when his ride back to Santa Barbara called to say he's sick and can't drive- fortunately for JJ he managed to hitch a ride with another friend heading out later tonight.

Had the fastest chinese eat out ever, and after that, hugged my bro bye and headed back home.

San Francisco and Good byes

Spent the whole day yesterday in San Francisco with family- we mostly just wandered between Powell and and Montgomery chilling and eating while my bro had an appointment to meet. At night we ate at Amici's and came back late at night, where I finally got to show my bro and dad this old kung fu flick called 'The Crippled Avengers'

Today was spent doing laundry and helping pa clean up the christmas lights and packing my school sketches and old artwork to ship back to the Philippines. Finally got the nerve to ask my old EfN opponents if they wanted the originals of my watercolor work, and they've said yes. |D; so that'll be one project to work on. My pa flew back earlier this evening, and my bro will be heading back to Santa Barbara tomorrow morning. Sad.

I've started work on an exercise my old Character Design teacher gave to his fall sem students, but for the sake of 1 pic a day promise, I just doodled this Spider-man thing so I meet my quota.

Trine and sibling cooperative play

Today finished playing Trine with my brother and sister, and man is it so much fun insulting, screaming and laughing at each other's deaths, mishaps and achievements at a gorgeous looking but still kind of a buggy game. Bro played knight, I played wizard, sis played thief.

Not much feeling like doodling people atm, I think doing these abstract color things will give my head the space to just chill and experiment. I'm hoping with enough practice I'll start being able to think outside of the box (eg. sky is blue, skin is tan, etc.) Too bad I double shrunk that 2nd picture by accident. Whoops.

New Year- new resolutions and all that.

Barely a minute's worth, really.

Now that the busyness of Christmas and New Year's have started to ebb off (and there's finally some space again to plop my laptop on the dining table haha)- got to talking to sister and a friend about future projects and more art stuffies.

Lately I've been extremely envious of a lot of friends who I imagine seem to be farting artwork on a day to day basis and I realize the only way I can get there is well, do what they do: draw something colorful, everyday. Plus I Have to make use of last semester's Color for Illustration.

It wasn't so bad when I started, then I had to quit when my own brain started hammering too many negative thoughts about technicalities. After that brief cloud of doubt, it doesn't seem overtly bad-it's just a doodle after all.

So that'll be my New Year's Resolution- just learning to chill out as I draw.
