Despite how I really feel, I like to make sure that I am ready to take on the day.

All I ask for is a little bit of guidance.

And seldom do I ask for help.

fucking awesome

Karu - END OF MONTH SUMMARY (May) 

Out of the many attempts in the past to get myself to draw everyday, this challenge is the most effective method for me to follow through. Though, it did take me a while to adjust, as I would frequently procrastinate until the last minute and end up with some bullshit that doesn’t have any technical value… even in general, actually. It’s pretty embarrassing to post any of that. I became more pressed for time towards the end of the month, and I learned to get my act together and manage my time to not only draw for the sake of it, but to create something that is worth it to me in some way.

There is no set theme either. Sometimes I base the content out of a song I’m listening to, or try to vaguely express my inner emotions of the moment.

I do draw a lot of girls though. Usually naked. In fact I was looking at my portfolio a few weeks ago and realized that I didn’t have enough variety in my illustrations; mostly tall, stoic nude women in muted colors and static poses with a lacking background. And having a style is fine and all, but marketing myself has been difficult lately (interested in fashion illustration but draws women with no clothes? C’mon.). I know myself that I can do variety but I haven’t been showing it to others.

So the goal for this challenge is to explore techniques and ideas that are lacking in my work. Use different brushes, play with lights and colors, draw loosely than be nit-picky with details, dynamic poses, expressive faces and body language, backgrounds, different body types, tell a damn story, and for Christ’s sake, draw more manly fuckin’ men! Show that I can draw more than just a pretty face. 

The pieces I wanted to highlight for this post are the ones that convey at least one of these ideas.

To a new month of more wholesome work!
