Drawing ruts and I'm honestly of the opinion that drawing ruts don't really exist.... let me explain. It's not that I can't think of anything to draw, it's that I can't think of anything to draw that other people would care to see. The problem there is obvious. It's either nothing I feel like drawing I want to share or I feel like I've already drawn the same thing over and over and it bothers me to think I'll be doing yet it again. In my opinion these are both very easy things to fix and if I did fix them, I wouldn't be in a so-called "art block" or "rut".<br />
<br />
To fix the first problem, I just need to not give a shit about what anyone else thinks of what I draw. That is a HUGE problem for me. I have plenty of friends who also draw and I think highly of them so I worry constantly about what they see me doing. I don't want what I draw to change their opinion of me. It's hard to get over that and the only way I have found is by drawing whatever I want and keeping it to myself. I don't share everything I draw. I do share about 80% with the internet though and <i>maybe</i> 40% with my real life friends, which is drastically lower than one would think.<br />
<br />
The second problem is only due to my own laziness. There are a hundred ways to draw the same idea and if I only looked, did some more research and was willing to experiment I would find the same subject matter interesting over and over again. I might even find better ways of portraying the emotion I wanted. This is why you sometimes see the same sketch from me a couple times with different lighting or colouring. It's because I realized what was missing or had a sudden idea I wanted to test out so pulled out an already started sketch.<br />
<br />
I'm sure most people are wondering why I'm sharing this by now. I hope it helps anyone else who is in an art block. Try sitting back and thinking about just why you "can't think of anything to draw" or "stare at a blank piece of canvas for an hour". There is probably something internally holding you back from creating. So grab your sketchbook and pencil and take a moment to think about what you REALLY like drawing. Really, truly like drawing and do it.Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-89043077376065351592012-04-02T20:22:00.002-04:002012-04-02T20:28:25.368-04:00Whispers- WipI won't post the images of myself I used for reference. lol but believe me, it was hard to pose this out when I am only one person!

Seriously. They weren't even new shoes, but I rarely get the chance to wear them with skinny jeans so seeing the laces for once was kind of neat. Not only that, I was interested in how the pant leg (since I tuck them under the shoe) bunch around the top of my shoes. So I went home and took some reference just for fun. The fabric of my pant leg wasn't quite as bunched up as I had hoped so the folds in the fabric weren't as much fun to reference as I was expecting. Still, I think this will come in very handy for drawing shoes, which I have a lot of trouble with.<br /><br />In lieu of my shoes, here are some shots of my roommate's:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsFRtRaZpSjNHn_zIhWHRRgScsQXD0kq9bujVvapRQEnorliI1eZaFWRnpW2pf2fOH_ugf1lLDWqEAPG5GHU1AIecz_12yMP7qciopyR2tSsDi5C4Q5bpfeCi3_-FvpTfOX6enDl-lUQI/s1600/HighTop3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsFRtRaZpSjNHn_zIhWHRRgScsQXD0kq9bujVvapRQEnorliI1eZaFWRnpW2pf2fOH_ugf1lLDWqEAPG5GHU1AIecz_12yMP7qciopyR2tSsDi5C4Q5bpfeCi3_-FvpTfOX6enDl-lUQI/s200/HighTop3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5726927481867041666" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5Aq_Qu-tXbEAWgJHiA-zBmFPBkqK45psrsX7MTIUihmkRO7OdR2A7Pstupc0qDTUxanric0jXNN7i7Fxa9B2XOTMnYW5HtOZbWvtnMAOOwstDuWMedknagFll6aEtEcoA3-7A4uBt2eQ/s1600/HighTop2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5Aq_Qu-tXbEAWgJHiA-zBmFPBkqK45psrsX7MTIUihmkRO7OdR2A7Pstupc0qDTUxanric0jXNN7i7Fxa9B2XOTMnYW5HtOZbWvtnMAOOwstDuWMedknagFll6aEtEcoA3-7A4uBt2eQ/s200/HighTop2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5726927474780102146" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCZlbHoEvvtzkMcw6_RnfOZ9G99V2Q6g15j-z2hPmR1ggdmRcl3wELaoNNlkmela7F43uU60auFtiKXzB0CF6Vk5OuAuKfFwatoLc2CnstZ2qatnzodplE82c5I__d6MNetzyFVy_3TJ8/s1600/HighTop1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCZlbHoEvvtzkMcw6_RnfOZ9G99V2Q6g15j-z2hPmR1ggdmRcl3wELaoNNlkmela7F43uU60auFtiKXzB0CF6Vk5OuAuKfFwatoLc2CnstZ2qatnzodplE82c5I__d6MNetzyFVy_3TJ8/s200/HighTop1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5726927469586533234" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsQ8R2KjTNX4CN1IRbbZQDpUDmU0WDS1TNi-ZAnDJ9DIAHDV2tIdlQK2qzVzO194Qlfa8_PxRYGP8llsPrkq91e5WfjAgJGEjWAV2ObWcT_Do0SyE13xnOJFmyJgNj_acQGUmELT5WDgw/s1600/HighTop4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsQ8R2KjTNX4CN1IRbbZQDpUDmU0WDS1TNi-ZAnDJ9DIAHDV2tIdlQK2qzVzO194Qlfa8_PxRYGP8llsPrkq91e5WfjAgJGEjWAV2ObWcT_Do0SyE13xnOJFmyJgNj_acQGUmELT5WDgw/s200/HighTop4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5726927488307400194" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Anyone else have shoes they care to share?

I was thinking about uploading to my dA, but I question how well it will be received. I still think his face looks overall weird and I don't know why... it's annoying. Also, you can see where I just got impatient with the hand and left the lines in.<br /><br />I got the skin colours from this image. I also had a ton of torso images up for reference, but I really should have pulled up a profile picture of the face and fixed the line work instead of just using a picture of the face for colour and light reference.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMJ6ww-lDYmbWoJ3MKgCRKBSrFySS6_blc-ZW6oftkCVvmtSUG0mQbivoaX_tApqhqpCp8uIsNsT5JJVFsrpNMSfqAcjl1MkeLAPWgEx6jM7Vtebgd8rm-WxZJwvWLRsgCtInUpw3d0v4/s1600/KyoSkinTonePossible.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 152px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMJ6ww-lDYmbWoJ3MKgCRKBSrFySS6_blc-ZW6oftkCVvmtSUG0mQbivoaX_tApqhqpCp8uIsNsT5JJVFsrpNMSfqAcjl1MkeLAPWgEx6jM7Vtebgd8rm-WxZJwvWLRsgCtInUpw3d0v4/s200/KyoSkinTonePossible.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724710814717331762" border="0" /></a><br />Overall, I think this was a success.Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-19377609540140498452012-03-17T17:17:00.005-04:002012-03-17T17:26:14.714-04:00The Art Order<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">I found this website in my spare time at work.

FebruarySo I missed that whole month there...<br /><br />I was drawing, but also, I have an internship, which is keeping me busy. Also, I recently got to attend a life drawing session and even those my drawings turned out terribly disproportionate from lack of practise, it was refreshing to be doing it again. I'll try to post those up soon. (Did I mention my birthday is also in February?)<br /><br />Other things on my plate include planning a D&D campaign and cooking meals that actually taste good and different from one another. Yes, I cook like a bachelor and I only just recently started to hate it. Hating it is motivation so hopefully I can keep trying new dishes.

It's not often I can't find the right words for them since I'm so used to their nature so many doodles have commentary from the characters right beside them. It's fine, I don't mind though some people find it a little unexpected. Still, there are moments when I know something needs to be said, but there is just no one sentence that is going to cover it. Those ones are tricky because my mind just won't leave the space blank, but I think I've found the answer.<br /><br />The anatomy is a little weird, but I think the body language is there. It was interesting hiding Kyo's eyes for once.

This is my last character from my set of three watercolours. I had him done for a while there, but I just remembered to actually get the photo from my camera. Isn't he lovely. Cameras really mess up any chance at all of getting the colours to look like they do in real life. He turned out a little flat when I painted him, but there is no undo button so hopefully I can get it better next time. =]Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-44556372424119388322011-12-14T20:13:00.003-05:002011-12-14T20:21:37.489-05:00Take Care of Him - WIPs<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTgqj9CUJuSoFJwwHR8LZhIShs3M07jsijigNzznzoVBdg_wEsBz_xN9RP9-d4l1ltXztLcwkxGvtL-GAuGm51r_RytHHWPSMxllubDbDecph48vJiZllt8gQ9GVddlXJ4v1EgVdGScR4/s1600/KarenTHUMBS.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 130px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTgqj9CUJuSoFJwwHR8LZhIShs3M07jsijigNzznzoVBdg_wEsBz_xN9RP9-d4l1ltXztLcwkxGvtL-GAuGm51r_RytHHWPSMxllubDbDecph48vJiZllt8gQ9GVddlXJ4v1EgVdGScR4/s200/KarenTHUMBS.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5686158363135376002" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHOpnwkwTmm7iHpn5ovk5499sBiowAxjNOS9uZosTMr8Y1ABhtC4KGFgnWUoFr72ZsmDlCl50VZsiGEMw0pAaZ-i3VBLKNc9alhnC96jzExGS0knpdr3gWgoxSVnsT0_M6SNYtPk8S85M/s1600/Karen_FoF4bwWIP1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 129px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHOpnwkwTmm7iHpn5ovk5499sBiowAxjNOS9uZosTMr8Y1ABhtC4KGFgnWUoFr72ZsmDlCl50VZsiGEMw0pAaZ-i3VBLKNc9alhnC96jzExGS0knpdr3gWgoxSVnsT0_M6SNYtPk8S85M/s200/Karen_FoF4bwWIP1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5686157463375919602" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbgMmGsqhhp7AofPI3HIwU6v4JtY2X010x8-kj0WD8Y6ErJWBEaVokVGBF-DWI_iyBGeA2vunzwCUAcaOrX-1G61ZhDvMpf_g2OnMcF92MxnVFyPmK3Difkr8-3it2n8-LeY1FqNoYwZs/s1600/Karen_FoFWIP2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 130px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbgMmGsqhhp7AofPI3HIwU6v4JtY2X010x8-kj0WD8Y6ErJWBEaVokVGBF-DWI_iyBGeA2vunzwCUAcaOrX-1G61ZhDvMpf_g2OnMcF92MxnVFyPmK3Difkr8-3it2n8-LeY1FqNoYwZs/s200/Karen_FoFWIP2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5686157466793822834" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMYqW5BnyZMIUFNSU3DWb0oLMJjzT-KqQPvoRkFt2JMNnrV-zPwSiifY8f0yUiUEfabNy9lXeRmR83PHNDkIqHOpfYo795WZVL6Z3EanRjcuft6K77hyxknFQFmlnpEZk74gAD7aGRkMg/s1600/Karen_FoF4bw2SM.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 130px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMYqW5BnyZMIUFNSU3DWb0oLMJjzT-KqQPvoRkFt2JMNnrV-zPwSiifY8f0yUiUEfabNy9lXeRmR83PHNDkIqHOpfYo795WZVL6Z3EanRjcuft6K77hyxknFQFmlnpEZk74gAD7aGRkMg/s200/Karen_FoF4bw2SM.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5686157468676430274" border="0" /></a><br />There is one little step missing in between the last and second last image and I dont have it because it was literally a rough brush over on the final layer that I then cleaned up here and there in the important parts. I liked the large brush strokes and randomness of a lot of the black sections and I didn't want to loose them by starting a whole new layer again. Anyways, so first was just a thumbnail and I did 3 of them then asked around for ideas, tweaked and blew it up to full size.

I find this art so impressive because you have to say so much with so little. I love looking through Amano's ink work for that as well as Sean Murphy's because they both put together fantastically dark moods.<br /><br />As for me, I have trouble committing to so much black, but I don't mind trying.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDIPB9d-6B0AMF_6EF5VRqw-Rd9CpOK6CEzueuzSBKAp90B8xs8bLYy_SIGq_ZFn4TirNlsL9hIbowtokpHZuABUgM8x9vohp7d_7F-_YTE4zyb0tZAMWu6_XvmQtKJ_1Sf2K8SAtHhig/s1600/Amano_styleTEST.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 145px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDIPB9d-6B0AMF_6EF5VRqw-Rd9CpOK6CEzueuzSBKAp90B8xs8bLYy_SIGq_ZFn4TirNlsL9hIbowtokpHZuABUgM8x9vohp7d_7F-_YTE4zyb0tZAMWu6_XvmQtKJ_1Sf2K8SAtHhig/s200/Amano_styleTEST.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5679465865313184386" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGoAWrMkz-uf_SgqymcMJ7mxeq_tB5syue2561xgxeRQMp5tiyM_cIOgbn33cdixdHjZUsXqthitzBB1urHrPEWr2eeIxZgoOT1xjP3ARwjzogBQXSIIY7DSCXv1UnYzEKuz_hnuRd4sc/s1600/Ken_ThruBlinds.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGoAWrMkz-uf_SgqymcMJ7mxeq_tB5syue2561xgxeRQMp5tiyM_cIOgbn33cdixdHjZUsXqthitzBB1urHrPEWr2eeIxZgoOT1xjP3ARwjzogBQXSIIY7DSCXv1UnYzEKuz_hnuRd4sc/s200/Ken_ThruBlinds.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5679465866727135922" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDzjcAMRjPPRvKm3BZ44qjn4PQQsa0tzLw-fV98coV12hTOSai5qbNMfm1gUIQSq5aGXpXAqtqblIZr04OU99LP2bV-MX_hTsBWc77NGjnP-kyi8vk0AVThF9O9ajFoKJttsUKiZg58DY/s1600/KyoKen_ArgueInk.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDzjcAMRjPPRvKm3BZ44qjn4PQQsa0tzLw-fV98coV12hTOSai5qbNMfm1gUIQSq5aGXpXAqtqblIZr04OU99LP2bV-MX_hTsBWc77NGjnP-kyi8vk0AVThF9O9ajFoKJttsUKiZg58DY/s200/KyoKen_ArgueInk.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5679465871695153426" border="0" /></a>Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-80254878755698452422011-11-20T19:43:00.003-05:002011-12-12T19:20:43.542-05:00Painting Practise- Portrait<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzgLltTG879q38Fsp8nav7KJEDprU-UzE9soWMtLQt_q8Z9IFG8pd1yRrKyR_mH-4j-WBlsPPG_1OZhoQR0zbVk187qK712bQ9SHzPnqefTBMosfHhUPtPDiJrCvGmi9bWl3N2PPcYL3Y/s1600/Ryan_Grey.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 199px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzgLltTG879q38Fsp8nav7KJEDprU-UzE9soWMtLQt_q8Z9IFG8pd1yRrKyR_mH-4j-WBlsPPG_1OZhoQR0zbVk187qK712bQ9SHzPnqefTBMosfHhUPtPDiJrCvGmi9bWl3N2PPcYL3Y/s200/Ryan_Grey.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5677243629682622306" border="0" /></a><br />Every now and then I dare myself to do a portrait. Faces this close up are daunting since I feel I don't know the planes very well. Still, I looked at some photos and made sure just to do it in greys to keep me from being overloaded. I know I could have went darker on the tones, but I really wanted this to be overall light and airy. So, the lighting on this face is referenced, but this is actually a friend of mine's character so there are a lot of changes.Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-22732146841677001932011-11-18T18:32:00.004-05:002011-12-12T19:22:13.009-05:00Today I drew for 6 hours<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7KReS1R4As2tRXFIAx34Vnb8cfqjnIA4OdQpCC-2ZR7UgtLhcrtMLhAtYOGu4B60YZgBbuplJ9FGLLbpGPfg_ltrNSabFrU4YW1d0SEqv_6_-RpSIVdPnuXs_e1yxkwYMT7HuRDRej4s/s1600/Kyo_TinoHeal.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 194px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7KReS1R4As2tRXFIAx34Vnb8cfqjnIA4OdQpCC-2ZR7UgtLhcrtMLhAtYOGu4B60YZgBbuplJ9FGLLbpGPfg_ltrNSabFrU4YW1d0SEqv_6_-RpSIVdPnuXs_e1yxkwYMT7HuRDRej4s/s200/Kyo_TinoHeal.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5676493955106309266" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pHx6mGVlZ4s/Tsb1LKwDPbI/AAAAAAAAAV0/VA1DRUjpSeM/s1600/OC_various.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pHx6mGVlZ4s/Tsb1LKwDPbI/AAAAAAAAAV0/VA1DRUjpSeM/s200/OC_various.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5676493952560348594" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Z3xDjO_Ol74/Tsb1LT9XUPI/AAAAAAAAAWE/JKQ_Kg1B-2g/s1600/CorVar_pie.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 146px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Z3xDjO_Ol74/Tsb1LT9XUPI/AAAAAAAAAWE/JKQ_Kg1B-2g/s200/CorVar_pie.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5676493955032109298" border="0" /></a><br />It was pretty intense.

I've been fiddling with water colour again so of course, my main characters took centre stage. I've got another one in the wing that I've started, but I'm having trouble finishing him. Anyways, I think it's obvious I'm just making these paintings up as I go. I have a lot of trouble mixing paint and keeping a consistent colour, not to mention I don't tape down the pages in any way so they wrinkle. It's from my sketchbook so I seriously think it's too difficult to smooth down in any way. It's been fun to play with regardless of my lack of training. It's not like me to try something without reading up on it or taking classes, but this seems to work.Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-22480876980550937132011-11-17T13:20:00.003-05:002011-11-17T13:28:32.854-05:00Thinking about nameIdeas are in my head about changing the address for my blog. I realize my profile is up there with my real name so I wonder if I should bother. I like to have all the sites I make linked to one another so you can always see me doing things, but in general I tend to separate people I have met offline from those I met online and censor the content based on that. With that I also think it's a good idea to keep that art theft concern under control. It would be a little awkward to have someone accuse me of stealing my own stuff because they don't know it's me.<br /><br /> It's likely I'll do nothing. I'm not sure I'm well known enough for it to matter.Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-67130327458207528022011-11-10T13:03:00.004-05:002011-12-12T19:22:23.917-05:00Ideas from Others<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0_lxiP8xlj8OgNr9k73Y1p7srCkjos73TAt251BgRavQf1Sg0B14KB3FHr8zYg3nOhwvdtZL9wsTXjic7VtluzLfeypEE5iuisVYEIUWsoRu5f6GK77M6EZyq58btfo6avbIFMyDoKoo/s1600/Emaleya.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0_lxiP8xlj8OgNr9k73Y1p7srCkjos73TAt251BgRavQf1Sg0B14KB3FHr8zYg3nOhwvdtZL9wsTXjic7VtluzLfeypEE5iuisVYEIUWsoRu5f6GK77M6EZyq58btfo6avbIFMyDoKoo/s200/Emaleya.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673430270407344658" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-stTTD4Me_2g/TrwSxfuMf8I/AAAAAAAAAUk/aeJDWhk8Veg/s1600/x%2BP%2BA%2BN%2BT%2BS%2Bx.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 128px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-stTTD4Me_2g/TrwSxfuMf8I/AAAAAAAAAUk/aeJDWhk8Veg/s200/x%2BP%2BA%2BN%2BT%2BS%2Bx.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673430272118128578" border="0" /></a><br />I do some sketch requests from people who have ideas on the website I surf. They are usually pretty quick, but sometimes someone asks for something that so easily can become a story that I find myself really enjoying it. I don't really reference or colour them, but I think they are promising as concepts for ideas I could come back to and make into a personal piece. So, it's a little strange because the lines are cleaner than a thumbnail I would use, but it's still riddled with sections to improve.Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-27214160277116912442011-11-09T18:15:00.002-05:002011-11-09T18:21:10.758-05:00Colour<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hNtuqbEqW74/TrsKT5Q7GEI/AAAAAAAAAUE/rTzU-WFBSck/s1600/Shoe.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 107px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hNtuqbEqW74/TrsKT5Q7GEI/AAAAAAAAAUE/rTzU-WFBSck/s200/Shoe.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673139492508866626" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GCNpE7Gq8g4/TrsKTdDAoQI/AAAAAAAAATs/GmBO_EMz8qs/s1600/J_beachClothes.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 112px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GCNpE7Gq8g4/TrsKTdDAoQI/AAAAAAAAATs/GmBO_EMz8qs/s200/J_beachClothes.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673139484934316290" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWy9f8Sr6yL-BMcsp1TQqFR8x-gY8xC2CublBycmlU1NDaUbClYjBHbLr1H_-3zqahFfGW9st6ddl3XFjwYNDwWzCpYHXWqQ_WmRQ80O2CxSPMGpdA1rvoqwSMtsZoi-AV9J0m51auIm0/s1600/PaintPractise_JSleepBed.tif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 155px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWy9f8Sr6yL-BMcsp1TQqFR8x-gY8xC2CublBycmlU1NDaUbClYjBHbLr1H_-3zqahFfGW9st6ddl3XFjwYNDwWzCpYHXWqQ_WmRQ80O2CxSPMGpdA1rvoqwSMtsZoi-AV9J0m51auIm0/s200/PaintPractise_JSleepBed.tif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673139486438713362" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8xPkbAf82cE/TrsKUNhfzLI/AAAAAAAAAUU/bYNmX-mG4Wc/s1600/ChaoticMCol.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 90px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8xPkbAf82cE/TrsKUNhfzLI/AAAAAAAAAUU/bYNmX-mG4Wc/s200/ChaoticMCol.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673139497947090098" border="0" /></a><br />I practise painting.... I might be getting better. Not sure really since there are large spaces between my practise sessions. I'm finding black and white photos way easier for my eyes to understand shadows with than coloured ones, which is good... but doesn't help me learn to see colours at all.Chaotic Manahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953163057870108138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8634343843744643736.post-53365105823633616582011-11-09T17:57:00.004-05:002011-11-09T18:12:49.055-05:00Playing with Thumbnails<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-b_SjyArA12g/TrsIoxCi0cI/AAAAAAAAATU/AbX4LXihHgU/s1600/Tino_VarSurpriseAtk.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 153px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-b_SjyArA12g/TrsIoxCi0cI/AAAAAAAAATU/AbX4LXihHgU/s200/Tino_VarSurpriseAtk.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673137652055069122" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw6zB_eTVsZnmGFlkUJG6PQqutLoMDvDgkNphjTdVHdeAh3BWMsj8Z4Oqhg_kggvVbbjCaK4kx6VoHEEmUyMFpt-V9_NeFUwUwVFaFOCI5A-gp_wR1TkRmiB4oayla4ihA4V1-Apv2ru4/s1600/Vamp_layouts.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 146px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw6zB_eTVsZnmGFlkUJG6PQqutLoMDvDgkNphjTdVHdeAh3BWMsj8Z4Oqhg_kggvVbbjCaK4kx6VoHEEmUyMFpt-V9_NeFUwUwVFaFOCI5A-gp_wR1TkRmiB4oayla4ihA4V1-Apv2ru4/s200/Vamp_layouts.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673136101064672690" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT0r9shITSkiJAf4RIBu6WEGjoDeTVDEtqAZ8RICJNj8XPi5yAWKjvg7PwEGbWLIyT5L7CiZHXSUtS6KUJI8lL8GFdONTM69bXy6BSiPQjNlKy61REt6RcVLMP8ORSkmh2sDZfNScPX-A/s1600/KenTino_work.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 158px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT0r9shITSkiJAf4RIBu6WEGjoDeTVDEtqAZ8RICJNj8XPi5yAWKjvg7PwEGbWLIyT5L7CiZHXSUtS6KUJI8lL8GFdONTM69bXy6BSiPQjNlKy61REt6RcVLMP8ORSkmh2sDZfNScPX-A/s200/KenTino_work.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673136094360210002" border="0" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-T80geouS93w/TrsIo9Gsy3I/AAAAAAAAATc/bMrmMpZVTJk/s1600/Kyo_JEnough.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 152px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-T80geouS93w/TrsIo9Gsy3I/AAAAAAAAATc/bMrmMpZVTJk/s200/Kyo_JEnough.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673137655293725554" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_LMlH7nnbrU/TrsHO5vLNxI/AAAAAAAAATI/stvBopsR-5o/s1600/Kyo_JKeephimCol.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 146px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_LMlH7nnbrU/TrsHO5vLNxI/AAAAAAAAATI/stvBopsR-5o/s200/Kyo_JKeephimCol.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673136108201522962" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Sometimes I just thumbnail out ideas I've invented.
