Sorry, couldn't think of a title for this entry! :giggle:

So a little update about life and art: life's been spanking my nerves like mad recently. Still don't know if I was re-admitted in college, I know how it's all going backstage (looking good, but knowing all that makes me even more nervous) and still my heart's been giving me enough clues for me to ponder taking a heart exam. Of all the people, ME, who never got bothered by any kind of stress in the past! :XD:

I'm not so art-lazy as I was, and am quite happy to see the results of a few weeks of not drawing. It seems that if I work in cycles, the results are more productive. Strange, neh? Still, I'll have to get used to working over long periods of time if I want to be an illustrator. Have to practice a bit more regularly.

Themes are something that I'm lacking right now as well, and I want to take a break from drawing always the same characters and environment over and over again. I might try creating something a bit diferent. Any suggestions? :)

That's all for now. :) I'll update here if I get back to college. You'll be seeing a LOT more paintings, digital art, drawings, photography, and God knows what else in my gallery! :la:

Check out Juxtapoz, its full of ads but its you can see some pretty weird/interesting stuff.

Some guy made a pinhole camera out of a girl's skull and thats not the only strange camera the guy has made. Made a picture somewhat based on that.

Imagine Fx has a good site and magazine with drawing and art tips for all media. Can give you the link if you are interested.

Feed your eyes.
I used to go downtown to a big magazine store and check out the art related magazines. Would look at stuff about ceramics, sculpture, graffiti, "lowbrow", basically anything that would catch my eye. I would buy the magazines and tear out the interesting pages and put them in folders.

Go to museums and art galleries if you can.

Having a large pool of inspiration to draw from gives you more ideas and stuff to do.

Have seen your tarot chars and they look great but it would be nice if they were drawn against a background. What sort of place would the Fool or Empress be found?
