My first personal piece since the end of the semester.
It felt really weird to be drawing one of my own characters for a change; I was actually really bothered by how estranged I felt. Like, since coming home I've been in this funk, thinking I have class again on Monday so I shouldn't relax, but I KNOW it's summer break, but all the same...It's driving me crazy. I actually really struggled with getting this piece to where I was okay with it. I also keep thinking I have critique soon haha.
But even though it felt strange it was great to, to FINALLY be able to do a piece of digital work, for myself, on my terms. So while I feel like I could have done so much better on this piece I feel like it's perfect too. I don't know if that makes any sense, it's just I feeling I have, I guess. But doing something digital really felt wonderful, I can't wait to draw morrrrre! There's so much I want to improve on this summer, if I can get out of this funk. XD
But yeah, just Ama disappearing into the darkness of the night and snow. Ama's my quiet, muted atmosphere guy. :3 So relaxing to draw. And I couldn't think of a title. I had been watching the new True Grit which had a STUPID ending and I also watched Tristan + Isolde which had a STUPID ending (and I was all excited about this movie because Tristan is one of my favorite knights evurrrr) so titles weren't coming. Usually I get my titles from listening to music while I draw.
Anyway, since coming home I am totally exhausted; I've actually spent the past three days not doing much else besides sleeping. It's going to take me a few more though before I think I'm totally rested, the last month of school hit me really hard. So yeah, digital art finallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!! Off to go to bed soon, after a snack or something, I just realized I'm really hungry. XD It feels great to be posting again!!
I love the shading and the dark colors and the tranquility.
