Due to the large response I got from my last journal *
* I've decided to sit down and write a list titled "Upcoming Art Projects", including personal works, things I owe for Art Trades or belated Gifts. Just everything; I can upload this, I just won't be showing my entire personal work list, as they're surprises.
Earlier today I went through my folders, plastic sleeves and loose bits of paper I keep shelved in my desk. I found things that I'd started and sketched out (from 3 years ago!), but just didn't colour. I even had a few
"How on earth did I do that, then?" and
"What the hell was I on?" moments, so I've kept what I think I can re-work and complete; which, surprisingly, isn't much.
I've also decided to start the Pokémon Challenge – drawing every single Pokémon; the Black and White Pokédex I may or may not attempt as I didn't really get into it... I mean Timburr, Girdurr, Conkeldurr? SERIOUSLY? I lol'd when I first heard it, but...*sigh*
ANYWHO! I have begun the journey, starting with Bulbasaur. I'm trying to think of creative or appropriate backgrounds (not just shapes or random colours to fill the area, but actual settings to build atmosphere of the artwork). Each piece will vary in media. I may use digital for one, pencils or watercolours, ink or paint, and even try sculpture work for others. I've just spent the last hour sketching out the Bulbasaur piece, and so far, I'm really happy. I've surprised myself.
Stay tuned guys, I have a lot planned!
As it's 4.a.m, I'm going to bed... to read.
