Until further notice this blog is closed. I probably won't return to it as I plan to create a new sketchblog, and right now I'm participating in an art-a-day thingy also on this blogger account. See my profile for the link.

...Back in England

Yeahhhhh... that didn't last long. >.>

We moved back to England just a few weeks ago after much debate and many tears on the subject. I'm not happy about it, but I've got to make the best of things. This being said, this blog will be strictly sketches-only from now on, no more personal blogging, that'll stay in my LJ. It's the start of a new era. Or something. ._.

OMG We're BACK

In Canada, that is! I'm so happy! xD


I've been drawing on and off since my last post, so here are the highlights:





This is a collection of sketches I did while we were still in the UK. We were at a get-together at a pub after a funeral, and I wasn't feeling particularly melancholy. So instead of showing this and probably offending people, I buried my head in my sketchbook.







This is the very first page of sketches I did in Canada since moving to England. I sat down and drew a whole page's worth of stuff to make sure I hadn't lost my drawing ability - I'd not picked up a pencil for at least a fortnight at that point, since it was really hectic with packing just before the flight. I had barely any free time for drawing.








This is one I coloured with watercolour after the first day back at school. I'm really proud of the colour job, since I had my doubts about how nice it would look. But I think it's a great substitute to digital colouring. Our copy of PS Elements got lost in the shuffle when we moved, so it's pretty much my only option now, unfortunately.


My style's solidified more, I think. It's got common elements now, as opposed to bits of whatever manga I've been reading recently. xD

Sketch + Quotes

I've added another daily quote widget at the bottom of the screen, I hope it actually works this time. I got it from Widgetbox. So many cool things there! >.<



And a sketch!




This is not my usual style, I went for a really anime-ish feel instead. He's cute! I'll put the coloured version I did on dA and link to it later.

D'oh!

Yeah, I forgot to mention: we are moving back to Canada! I am so happy! >3<


We're going this summer, after my school work is over, end of June. I won't be able to update this blog for awhile till we get a computer, unfortunately. D: I really do hope to get that watercolour done by then.


I also pre-ordered this fantastical thing the other day. It's my favourite shounen-ai webcomic. I totally did the pre-order just to get the free postcard. I am a hopeless loser when it comes to HoneySyn. T^T Go buy one and spread the lurv! (Although I highly doubt the thing needs advertising, it's crazy popular already. :P)
