Mommy tree and her daughter.
I hope they'll always be close to each other.
Pushing yourself to the next level is a great experience. I did it today by drawing this illustration.
It's what happened to me:
- I created effects I've never done before,
- my creativity reached its new highs,
- I developed new painting skills,
- I'm still feeling amazing.
Day 4 of #whimsicalByMamaminia art challenge.
A portrait of a pair of characters from my Victoriana tabletop game. An unlikely couple that drum up support for everyone odd and forgotten by the oppressive society they live in. As a red haired Eldren, she is considered cursed and likely to commit dark magics and as a Ratman William finds the residents of London look upon him with derision.
Twenty years ago, in high school, myself and my peers were instructed to tie a piece of string to a candle. Holding the candle and dipping the string in India ink, we drew portraits. I added some watercolor along with the "blah blah blah..." around her head. I remember being frustrated at the inability to control the utensil and craft a "perfect" image. The meaning of the word "perfect" [for me] has evolved immensely since then.
Yet another self portrait. Whenever I am questioning my artistic abilities, I draw a self portrait to remind myself that I can draw but that I just need to familiarise myself with the subject matter.
