A Japanese tutorial on how to draw plaid on skirts, but can be used on any piece of clothing. The images are easy to follow, so the text is not important. Can be used with any medium or style. Source unknown.

Photographer Dmitry Miroshnikov captured the 2011 Sardine Run with some pretty amazing results.
About the project:
These photographs reveal one of nature’s greatest phenomena - the annual sardine run. Millions of the fish move north along the coast of South Africa where they are eaten by dolphins, sharks and gannets in a huge feeding frenzy.
See more of his images from the hunt here.

Got some spare time? Make a comic!
Download the sample printable comic right here!
Reasons for doing this?
1: My followers can finally have a printed comic by me.
2: It seemed like a fun activity to do, specially with young kids.
3: It might be cool if interweb folks shared tiny little mini comics with each other. And a whole bunch of people can print each other’s comics and maybe we could collect ones by other artists. So… ya know. Why not?
ahhh cute
Yesss…

A big ol’ tip on drawing cities from street-level. The drawings are pretty crude, (I did them very fast,) but I think they get the point across :) I’m sure some streets like in the first example actually exist in the world, but why would you choose to draw something so boringly bland?
Hope it helps you out!
weh I have so much to learn on in the “drawing cities” front. I always try to push myself to do better, but I can never quite stage my sidewalks right. I blame it on growing up in a town with no sidewalks or buildings higher than two stories.

I finally got around to painting another Ace Attorney fanart. This shows some of the process in painting Mia Fey. The steps are quite straight forward. Some of the process can be found on my livestream.

As an addendum to my last post/reblog… I still feel the need to stress that art is pure imagination, creativity, a manifestation of your own interpretations and ideas into something that is as unique per person as their fingerprints. Even the best copiers can’t get everything right. I hold the opinion that everyone has their own style (whether it be visual art or otherwise) because everyone thinks differently, writes differently, sees the world differently. All of the portraits above are drawn by my hand, inspired by different styles and a couple of my own. One is anime. Is it bad? What makes it bad? What makes you think this way?
Similarly, what makes it good? And if you are a person who doesn’t like a certain style of cartooning, I want to hear reasons. Because as far as I’m concerned, art transcends a solid definition. “Good” and “bad” are invalid thought processes… art opens up a huge forum of thought and discussion and opportunities for collaboration.
I just don’t think it’s right for anyone to be a critic anymore. I hate commercialization and the way it’s changed the way we look at art. I both love and hate the ways art can be used to manipulate people—it’s interesting how it’s started wars, inspired movements and can make you want to buy a Coke.
Bleh… I’m rambling. Talk?
