i made this too! inspired by regina’s skully tumblr post (please click it because its just that amazing) and it was so fun to make
a change!
summer is over, so that should mean the end of this but art is so much fun that you know what i need to follow ‘all of this is fun’ and actually say you know, all of this IS fun so there!

so, i was very inspired by diana’s latest piece, and i’ve been using this really great pencil at work (it looks like a normal pencil, but its blue. and it doesnt look like a colored pencil, which i really dig) which has inspired me to draw with it.
and so, the reason why i stopped drawing for a while is because i really like drawing portraits, but i just can’t get it as realistic as i would like. its very frustrating for me because i want it to be perfect and i cant get it that way. but tonight, i just didn’t care. i didn’t want it to be perfect, i didn’t want to get frustrated, i just wanted to have fun. and so, i found a portrait, and just drew. i just did what i wanted. and, five minutes later, this is what i made. and i felt so great. its such a freeing feeling to just let go and just let the shapes and shadows take over and wow what an amazing thing drawing is
(oh and i know there are some wonky things, like those funky pupils, but thats another story where i never draw pupils because they’re, in my opinion, the hardest parts to draw due to the fact that they are the most expressive part of the face, but i finally just did it and its not the best but its my first time in a long time and whatever)
