I'm sick, so I sketch

Hey everyone!
Sorry for not posting recently!!! So I got sick on Wednesday and I have been in bed trying to get better and it's just not fun!!! But I've been sketching, and trying to keep myself from going insane from being sick for the billionth time!!





The previous drawing is of these monkeys that my grandma made for me from polymer clay.





I tried to draw all my necklaces and it just became so tedious because there's too many of them!


Random flowers cause I couldn't think of anything else to draw.


This is a turtle made of seashells. It's got a straw hat!


I was planning on drawing how I was opening the paper clip but my hand got tired and I got lazy to do that so I just held the paper clip.


Some random hair clips.


I've been drinking lots of tea so this is the wrapper from the tea bag.


I decided to start the edm begs. So this is challenge #1.


And this is challenge #2.

Been busy, catching up with old stuff

I'm sorry I've been gone for some time. It was my uncles wedding so everything was very hectic and there was almost no time to post let alone draw!

Some of these sketches are from me sitting on the train sketching random stuff. I generally dont draw people on the train cause I feel like theyll notice, maybe it'll happen in the future.












The next drawing is of two candles my mom took from the wedding. They are shaped like wedding cakes and they are in a really cool box with a nice ribbon so I decided to draw it since I didn't draw anything else wedding related.

Lanyard and itchiness

So I'm just on this thing I guess of drawing things from my desks at the moment. I drew my robotics lanyard with my flash drive on it, and there's a cute camel attached to it. Awwww!!! Who doesn't love a camel?


Also I'm having some issues with the mosquitos. Let's just say they really don't like me...

Keychains

Got interested into drawing some keychains. So I drew the keychain with the flash drives for robotics that I have to pass onto one of my friends. Then I drew my keys.

Afternoon kitchen sketch

I wanted to take a break from doing my school summer assignment so I decided to go draw the kitchen table. Im visiting my grandparents so it was very hard to get my grandma to leave everything on the table as it is rather then putting everything away as she is known to do. A messy composition is better then a clean one because there's always a story behind how everything got its place.

Morning sketching

Sketchception

This started off as just a sketch of my smaller sketchbook (but the sketch is done in my larger sketchbook). Then my friend suggested the name Sketchception when I told him about the sketch and how it's like inception.
Thanks for the name!!! :D

Late night sketching with new supplies

I have a tendency to sketch late at night. This time I started my new sketchbook. It's the same company as my bigger one but it's a smaller (baby) size. To anyone who cares, the bigger version is 8.5 in by 11 in, while the smaller one is 5.5 in by 8.5 in. (im hoping to get either a stillman and bern beta or delta for my next sketchbook because those have thicker pages then these sketchbooks.)




I really like the smaller version because it's more portable and Im really going to need that during the school year. (junior year is so close, it's actually a bit scary)
I was able to do a sketch on the inside cover. (notice the large amount of purple and green, shout out to my robotics team, the FeMaidens haha) I also realized that a lot of mardi gras masks use that color combo. Love it!!!



New supplies

I recently ordered some new supplies from JetPens!! I was super excited when they were supposed to come! They came in 3 days and that was with free shipping so I definetly love JetPens now.

I got a fountain pen, 2 spare cartridges for the pen, those special erasers that you click and it comes out of the container, 1 pentel waterbrush (medium), 1 petit portable waterbrush with a small bottle to store extra water, and a pack of 6 color micron pens (.25 mm). I was practically checking the door for when they would come. Of course once I got them I started drawing with them.





Im also using a new app on my iPod touch to do my blogging. Its called blogpress! If I remember correctly, it cost me $4.99 in the app store. Highly recommend it better then the blogger app!

Also did some micron color tests, and some color tests with some of my old watercolors. Those watercolors are like 8 years old so I didn't expect anything from them. ;(






Then I did a drawing of my pen cup!

Drawing at my Friends House

I visited my friends house this past weekend and I got to sketch a lot. I was able to sketch 2 fireplaces, a small table, and a window.

Late night sketching/queens

I started sketching a picture of the Eiffel tower from my architecture book and I only finished it the next day while waiting for my friend at some mall food court. I really enjoyed sketching there because lots of little kids kept coming by an staring at my sketch. It was really funny. Then I sketched my friend while she was writing a story and talking to me.

Random dress stuff :)

These are just drawings I felt like doing at the time.

Dress Sketches

These all use the same pattern for the material and they have some similar visual characteristics that are quite noticeable.

Coney Island Beach Visit

I went to the beach today and did some sketching there after swimming in the ocean. I sketched the lifeguard who thankfully did not move a lot so I could draw him. Before that I sketched the view of Luna park and all the rollercoasters that were seen from my viewpoint.

Dresses

Started sketching some dresses that I found online. Then decided to make 2 sketches of a similar dress. Th dress style was copied from a dress found on the social apparel website. The pattern is similar to a pattern that Hayden Williams back in March or April.

Late night sketching

I was in the mood to stay up late one night to sketch and watch tv shows online. I started by being inspired by paperfashion.com for the swimsuits page of sketches. Then I did some practice sketches with my different brushes. I also tried a modern art attempt of the letters of the alphabet.
