School come back to me!

I miss school!

Work is fine, but I miss having specific animation or drawing to do.  I went to the animation open house a couple weeks ago, and WOW! Some of the drawings there made me want to scream! They are amazing!  Maybe if I get in to the program, with lots of hard work, I will be able to make such captivating and emotional drawings like they did.

Here is a few drawings I did a couple days ago. I know, its not much but its something right?


 Now when I edit it (on my sweet new camera), and put it to negative, it makes it look like I drew it in chalk! Pretty cool hey?





P.s. I am soooo sore today! I went rock climbing again yesterday, and man my arms are not used to that kind of exercise.  We did get our belaying ticket though!  This means we can go there whenever and do it all ourselves. Nice hey? 

Here is a little hint to a video Melissa and I are currently working on.
(obstacles is back)

If you don't understand, read Melissa's Post.


Anybody have any challenges for me (drawing wise)? Leave a suggestion and I will see what I can do.

Happy Late Valentines!

I have not done much drawing over the last week, but I did make my boyfriend a Valentines card.


This is Timon with a girl meerkat. I put it in a clear envelope thing because the normal envelopes were not the right shape.  Also it was raining that day, and this would protect it.

Here is a picture of me and my boyfriend on Valentines.  We went to Castle Fun Park!  
(That's right, be jealous.. heh heh)


I lost at every game (including mini golf) except for this one racing game! I was really proud of myself!



So best present ever.. I got a touch screen camera for Valentines.  It has crazy settings, like the unfocused background, and it can detect when you smile and then take the picture.  I think it may be smarter than I am.

Magic Worlds and Fairy Tales

As promised, I did draw more yesterday, though they are not all the greatest. 

Trying my hand at drawing some Disney again. (Its been a while)
Robin Hood!


Rabbit. The head is way to big, but I did not feel like fixing it.



Meant to be my boyfriend Jacob, but it does not really look like him.  It is so hard to draw people I know for some reason.


This is sort of me.  I drew it from a picture of me, but changed some things.



Sometimes I wish I lived in a land of fairy tales, and magical things. Wait, scratch that, I always wish that.  It would be so great though. Just think of all the amazing Disney movies.  Now imagine you lived in a world where all of that was possible.  Where magic wands were used daily, and princes came to your rescue. I like to imagine I am a mermaid, of course.  

When I think of Disney, some days, my heart feels like its filling up with Joy! I get so excited to draw or read about Disney, or watch a Disney movie. Maybe I am being silly but I love it!

Do you ever think of something and get filled with a giddy happinessÉ 
(Sorry I cant make question marks, I pressed something on my computer.  By the way does anyone know how to fix this... please let me know!)

Don't worry I am still here and not slumping back in to my "non-posting-ness".  Your welcome!

I did not have time to post yesterday, but I did draw on my way to work. 



Here are a couple more life drawings that I did not post the other day.




I hope to have many other drawings for you by the end of the day.

Unicorns, and bus rides!

I am making it my goal to try and draw on my way to work. There is people all around me, which is great for inspiration.  For some reason even if I don't draw anything I see, its easier to come up with ideas.

Before I left for work I drew a unicorn. One of my friends is slightly obsessed with them, so I am going to colour it and give it to her.


I passed a dog while on the bus and his face was incredibly saggy, which inspired this drawing.


Another drawing I did on the bus, this one just kind of kept forming.


I am happy to report that I am starting to get more hours at work! Whooot!
