Moving Up(literally) and Out

So the reason I've been pretty inactive lately is because the school year is almost up and it's time for me to move out of my dorm that I've spent my first year in college at.

It's funny because my pack rat mentality has really screwed me over.

Two suitcases full of clothes and I still have all the drawers to empty out! Too many shoes than I could ever want. And how could I throw away my constantly expanding string collection? (Who knows when you might need those strings again?)

Also I discovered I had a penchant for stuffing all my "unworthy" art under the bed in a big ripped, taped up mess. Time for some serious post spring/even late summer cleaning!

So case in point, while this move is being performed and I have my two finals up and coming, I will not be artistic and or humorous as both require some sort of mental mindset made (lookit that alliteration!) impossible by my current frantic state to complete everything.

So hang tight. My all of maybe one watcher who isn't really interested in a prolonged hiatus since I never post anything anyway.

This happens way too often. Especially when I'm supposed to be doing something else. 

Art Block of Fail

Sorry for not being able to post any art lately. I've been in a major art block both creatively and qualitatively. I can't seem to draw anything good. I'm going to try an approach where I take clothing designs and models and draw them from various fashion sites. Hopefully this will help my art and style. However I won't start til this weekend at earliest.

I am currently working on a logo design that may or may not be used and I am celebrating Bastille day and Harry Potter premier at the end of this week, so pretty busy!

Jim Sturgess How I have forsaken thee

SO I was listening to this song and I was like Guaaaahhhhh :D

Kingdom Dance Tangled

So for a while I had been working on this drawing on and off. But all in all it took maybe 5-8 hours of drawing, and photoshop work? Wow... I really need to get faster at all this.

NO stealing, or removal of the website from the image or I will be forced to watermark all over my art!

Seriously, I may or may not want to use this in a portfolio some day.

Overall I'm happy with the design. (First time doing that position of the head so yay!) But I think the shading could be better (I used/abused the dodge and burn tools as a cop out.) And if I could redo someday I would make the skin tanner for color scheme reasons.

Also inspired by a much better portrayal of the scene here:
