Praise the Lord

Here's your ticket!! I gotta gotta learn how to differentiate drawing styles for different age range. Example here, I'm not sure if it suitable for kids age 6-12. 12 is near to teenage, huh? or is the range too far that it confused me - but honestly, I gotta have extra awareness on that issue. Anyways.. this is for my friend's sunday school kids choir concert (I did their christmas invitation last year, too). I'm looking forward to see it!! They have Amani Utupe, and some other cool songs!!

I love making colorful posters - the thing is that I have to make it work. Think of what's the main focus again, and trying not to make people puzzled instead, below is my first attempt. I feel like the colors on the children at the back (on top of the hill, i mean) is distracting us from seeing the poster title where I want the main focus be..*awh.. internet colors degrading the saturation :(*
This is after I edit the color on the kids at the back :)

They Turn Out to be ... Cute


Horror, dark fairies was the idea of the project. He told me no to go with the cute stuff on these three fairies *they look like dolls to me - since he didn't want any wings. I've tried and tried, but somehow they all turned out to have that cute feeling to it. A clean character filled with light *well.. at least that's how I see them. Thank goodness he liked the rendering. I haven't heard any complaints; I haven't heard from him again, to be exact. ~ i'll bug him.

Sketchbooking Again




I bought a new book and start discipline myself (again) to draw - to learn to see again :) *like Hawthorne said. Well, here's one of my self portrait. I bragged to my friends I can make a look-a-like, but never done one for them ; and now I did but didn't turn out a look-a-like one, haha.. I hope they won't find out ^_^'

Coloring Storyboards

To color not to color.. I love colorings, I haven't done like this style before ( i mean paid ones), but I quite like it!! And trying to discipline myself to do more... Practice makes perfect! *Oh - here i only do the coloring, not the drawing :) I kinda like the drawing too actually. I found storyboards are better drawn this way than with vectors (like the one i posted some time ago).. 

Wedding Invitation

These two birds are for my wedding invitation :) I'm using the color green and pink to match the event theme. I'll put up the invitation design when it's done, ok ;)
