Anime Cartoon Girl

     So after a while I said to myself, why don't I try drawing humans! One time I drew a human, and it didn't come out so great, so I told myself I'm never gonna draw humans, but then I learned that I shouldn't be so hard on myself. When I tried it out, I wasn't gonna do some really hard masterpiece that would take a million years, I was gonna start off with something small. How about an anime girl? So I tried it out and I really like it! I am going to start drawing more cartoon characters before I start moving into real life. I hope you like it!

The Wise Owl


     Hi guys! I know I haven't posted in a while, and I feel bad, but I promise I will get back to it and start posting everyday. So this is an owl I sketched that took about a week! What took the most time was the shading. I worked really hard trying to make it look realistic, but now that I got my charcoal pencils for Christmas, I could shade better. What I noticed in a lot of my animal sketches is my eyes, I really like doing them, they are my specialty. Anyway, I hope you all had a great Christmas with your family and got great gifts! Happy New Year! I appreciate all of you for following me and liking my post!

The Plant in the Pot

     This is a picture of a plant in a pot I colored. Actually, it was an art project my group did at school, the teacher said: "You will have to draw any type of plant in a pot, but you can't use brown." And it turned into this! I admit, when I got home I did add a little brown, but when I was at school, i tried all these colors that I normally wouldn't use and I loved it. My parents were very proud of me. I added the seed bag when I was at home, and I was astonished! I didn't know I could do that! I was around 9 in 3rd grade when I did it. I hope you all like it!

Snow Leopard sketch

     Here is another post! I'm doing two today to make up for the days I didn't post. Here is a sketch of a snow leopard staring into the distance. Before it would be a bit hard to do the spots, but now that I have learned how to shade, It was a bit easier. I hope you all like it!

Hawk sketch

     Hi guys! Sorry I haven't posted for a few days, I have been busy. Anyway, this is a sketch I recently drew of a hawk staring into the sunlight, it was tough to do the feathers and the eyes. I hope you all like it I worked really hard on it!

My first ever experience painting

     Okay! So I'm going to take you way back to when I was 2! This was my first ever painting, you might be like why are you showing me this? Well, most little kids when they do their first painting its sometimes all brown and the paints are not mixed good at all, but my mom and dad knew I was gonna be an artist one day by how I mixed the colors in a unique way and it doesn't look like a brown blob. Anyway I just thought I'd show you this because it was my first painting ever! Remember I was 2 when I did this! I hope you like it!

My First Commissioned Painting

     Okay another post. So this is my first ever painting, I did for my mom's friend. She was my first paying costumer and she asked for a painting with a jazz theme. She wasn't expecting this, haha. This painting took about 4 months to do and I worked really hard on it. I used water colors and it came out looking like this! I am very proud of it and I am thinking of doing more paintings.

     I was inspired to make this because my dad was a musician, he passed away about a year ago and I wanted to make a big collage of instruments for him. So I hope you all like it! Leave a comment below telling what you think!

One of my young drawings

    As I said in my last post I will be posting some of my old drawings when I was young. Here is a giraffe eating off a tree in a valley. I was five when I did this haha can you believe it! I laugh sometimes when I go back and look at these pictures, on how I drew the eyes, or the body, but you can definitely see how I progressed from this to what I can do now. Well I will be doing a pattern like old pictures then pictures I did not too long ago. Leave a comment on how you feel about it!

The Rose - one of my latest drawings

     This here is one of my latest drawings. It's a sketched rose. By the way, if you were wondering, I haven't had any art lessons or art classes. I started when I was 2 and art has just been my passion forever. At first I would just draw and color, but then I started sketching and now I shade with my finger. When I would see something interesting I would try it out; then if I like it, I do it but with my own style. If you haven't noticed yet this drawing is my profile for my blog. It took about a week to finally finish the final touches. I have been mostly drawing animals and I wanted to see how I would do with a plant, or flower in this case. I'll be posting a lot more sketches and as well as some of my old old drawings like when I was 4 or 5, haha. I'm 10 now just so you guys know how I progressed over the years. Anyway, I hope all of you like it!
