days 39-40 of my #100DaysChallenge of drawing animals. I continued working on some watercolors and more intentionally to be finished stuff - with the result that except for the elephants that were actually finished at this point, the rest is still languishing in my room in the same state like, 2 weeks or so later. Gah. I hope I'll have the energy to actually finish them this week!
day 41 of my #100DaysChallenge of #drawing#animals. For this day I first did some #chicken studies from video (paused), then went to draw my neighbor's living chickens. Then took my rough (very!) sketches home and added some details (heads, feet) from my by now accumulated generalized chicken knowledge.
On day 55 of #drawing#animals I continued looking at flamingos, delightfully weird flamboyant flamingos, this time with some color studies, still gathering information for my personal flamingo drawing cheat sheet.
on day 55 of #drawing#animals I also started a bunch of more involved larger watercolors of Flamingos, and continued working on them on day 56. Here are some progress pics :) The first one I consider finished, though I got some feedback on it from a teacher that made me consider doing a second version. Maybe some day!
on days 58 & 59 of #drawing#animals I focused on #insects, such beautiful varied weird creatures! I could easily fill another 100 days just with drawing bugs :)
I lost my patience on the first image studying the structure of dragonfly wings. I still want to get back to it at some point, or to something similar. Want to get better at nailing those shiny lacy intricate structures, but so far my inking skills falter when confronted with them.
drew this traditionally first but didn't know how to proceed and i was scared to ruin it.
so i decided to work on it digitally. #art#procreate#drawing#MastoArt
Octavia Butler said “First forget inspiration. Habit is more dependable. Habit will sustain you whether you’re inspired or not. Habit will help you finish and polish your stories. Inspiration won’t. Habit is persistence in practice. Forget talent. If you have it, fine. Use it. If you don’t have it, it doesn’t matter. As habit is more dependable than inspiration, continued learning is more dependable than talent.” #drawing#art#illustration
