I want to draw, not do my art homework D:

Funny how that works.


I've probably done this meme like...five times already, but I like redoing it because I chaaange over tiiiiime
(aka I need an excuse to sit here and do nothing)

◆Your name?
Effers

◆If possible, your age?
NO, IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

◆When did you start drawing?
Everyone doodled as a kid, right?

◆Which hand do you use for drawing?
Right.

◆Which is easier to draw - male or female?
Maaaaaaaaaale so much girly or buff

◆Which is easier to draw - long hair or short hair?
Depends on the style, but I much prefer short.

◆Is it easier to draw the head facing towards the right or the left?
LEFT I need to work on the right dammit

◆Is it easier to draw the side view of the face or the front view?
Hurm this changes a lot. It like, goes in a pattern. Front, then 3/4, then profile, then 3/4, then front...in that order as my style slowly progresses...right now it's probably like somewhere in between front and 3/4 (what even). But profiles are really fun so.

◆What do you have problems in drawing?
Perspective, action poses, profile bodiesss, suddenly I really hate necks and shoulders, backgrounds...and then of course things I never draw but should for the hell of it, like cars, different animals (which used to be the only things I could draw, how depressing I don't draw them anymore), etc

◆What do you like to draw?
Faaaaaaces.

◆Are you a traditional artist or a digital artist?
While almost everything on my devi is pretty much digital, I think I probably prefer traditional. ...well that depends. I work more with traditional, though. And nothing beats the good old pencil and paper.

◆Where do you start drawing from?
guidelines, usually for the face...need to start with other stuff though and so come action poses or something, fsh.

◆What is your drawing habit that you are aware of?
PROCRASTINATION...talking--or rather writing--to myself on the side of my sketchbook next to what I'm drawing...making dumb faces while I draw...huh, I dunno.

◆Any tips for coloring/shading?
Don't puke rainbows. Don't use blacks and greys for shading colors, don't use white for highlighting colors. DON'T USE THE GOD FORSAKEN SMUDGE TOOL. Fool around with stuff, see what you like. Consider lighting position, source, intensity, and color. Study real-life objects to see how light effects them (like the skiiin).

◆How long does it take to finish a piece of art?
Depends what the hell I'm doing and how much I get distracted. Last few digital pieces in my gallery took a few hours.

◆What music do you listen to while you draw?
Depends upon what I'm drawing.

◆How long does it take you to come up with an idea?
Aw jesus if I'm lucky it just comes to me suddenly when I'm actually near paper and able to draw. Usually ideas come to me when I can't draw at the moment or when I can draw they just don't come and I stare into space or doodle.

◆Your favorite drawing utensils?
Paper and penciiiil.
Other than that, traditional-wise probably charcoal. Digital-wise photoshop.

◆Your favorite color/the color that you use a lot?
Blues and purples.

◆Your favorite style(s)?
Unique, individual styles!
As far as influencing me, cartoon styles, manga, art nouveau, and baroooque and late rennaisance stuff actually. Such nice figures. D:

◆What kind of artist are you aiming for?
One with a unique style, and with a wide range of abilities, from realism to graphic design, specifically though comicking abilities
