me before drawing: aaghh unimaginable pain, please oh god don't make me do it

me while drawing: my soul is at peace. my pineal gland has been cleansed of worldly desires.

i chose the goofy fun and i have no regrets :3c

met with an overwhelming urge to draw adorable things from seeing olga ortiz’s pokemon designs over on instagram. it’s so infectuous. but i have to focus. i must stay strong. and work on my fundamentals before i have the goofy fun. i must learn how to control placing values. i must practice so i can get into my dream art school and i must learn how to use traditional media ooooooaaaaa my god i drew a sunbear flower

genuine question, how does one make oil pastel look good ? im struggling to grasp how layering works here. it’s not as translucent as watercolor, so how do i get that multiply effect without making it look like literal dog water..? or is the trick not to layer at all?? how do you blend it properly then. What am I missing here in understanding oil pastel. i feel it is right under my nose

so funny how i struggle with drawing still life objects. i get distracted with thoughts of why am i doing this. what is the point. egg so round. so what. metal shiny. ok?? so is the pokemon that awaits me in my emulator. but if it’s a marble statue of a wrinkly old man you bet your ass i lock the fuck in. beard so poofy. i must do it justice. angry eyes that make those two lovely wrinkley folds above the nose. ooooooh mama
