Ooooh, so now we have even more space for art :O I approve.

Um, okay... I have so much art lying around that it's kind of hard to pick something, but here goes

Self portrait from before I cut like 40 cm of my hair off

Made with my drawing tablet in ... paint tool sai? I think so

Even older than the last one (by old I mean I made it like ten months ago)

Sketched out with a hard pencil, lines drawn with a black pen. The siren is coloured with watercolour pencils and the background is regular watercolour.

Yeah and here's something I drew two months ago. I really really really like drawing hair ok I swear it's the most fun thing to draw ever.

Sketch made with a hard pencil and lines made with black pen but I think that's pretty obvious


EDIT: I forgot to say, but your drawings are all so awesome! You guys are crazy talented

So are you!  I'm amazed by the self-portrait you did on the tablet.  After spending half an hour fumbling about with graphics in Microsoft Office and realizing I can't even write legibly with a mouse, I am doubly impressed that you were able to get such fine lines and delicate color control when you're not actually touching the art medium.

And I love love love the hair hair hair.  That drawing is so lyrical -- it reminds me of Alphonse Mucha's Art Nouveau pictures.  (I'm far from the only Mucha fan here.)  As a "person of hair" myself, I know whom to commission if I ever want a glamour portrait drawn!

Thanks! And believe me, it took a lot of trying and failing to be able to draw somewhat adequately on the tablet. I'm not good with technology and computers and stuff at all, so basically I just sit there and do stuff I don't really understand until I'm satisfied...

Wow, thank you! I love Mucha! Hehehe, the dangers of having me draw you is that I might only spend like two minutes on your face so that I can get to the hair straight away (believe me, it has happened before, albeit not when I was comissioned)

Y'know, that was exactly what I thought of after I said that.  :D I haven't seen it, but I want to.

Ooooh, I've heard that it's supposed to be really good (and as a bonus it has songs by Lana Del Rey)! I've been meaning to watch that one, actually. Thanks for reminding me! :3
