I have had a great deal of trouble coloring ANYTHING these past couple of years. I think I have forgotten color theory or something.
So, I started inking this picture in OC 1.1. I'm not even really sure I want to ink my drawing in this program. I played with using complementary colors and analogous colors.

I post much of my abstract artwork here, and now I feature tips on art supplies and how I use them.

Random thoughts and drawings
Why doesn't the sims 3 have zombies? That would make so much sense...
Mori kei allows a lot more knitted things to be made than lolita. That is so unfortunate.

Black Lolita Lineart
Finished the lineart. Not sure what do to for the colors. Perhaps pink and blue for the dress?
The eye is bothering me a bit. I might fix it. The dress too. I dunno. This pic is getting old. May be time to color it and then leave it.

The idea of weaving.
Hello! I"m back.
Busy with school. Trying to get art internships. Very hard.
Right now, I'm taking a small break, as it is sunday and have done a bit of homework.
Lately, I have been spinning cotton on spindles I've made myself! Its a "green" cotton, 4 oz, but to everyday people it looks tan. I'm making it into sport/fingering weight yarn. I don't know why I am compelled to spin it so thin. Maybe because I see everyone else online spinning their threads that thin or thinner.
I've been spinning for a few months. I believe, since summer of last year. Its so fun and calming to watch a huge cloud of fiber turn into thread or yarn, a more useable form.
I like the idea of growing your own fiber though.... call me crazy.
I've been making this japanese thread crochet dress pattern. I feel its very mori kei or classic lolita, and is just the thing to go over more plain outfits. Of course, I had to do quite a bit of math. If you want to make it, chances are, if you're not 34" bust, you're going to have to recalculate the size. http://gosyo.co.jp/english/pattern/eHTML/ePDF/1110/4w/211s-11_Amijin_Cotton_Buttoned_Tunic.pdf Its from Pierrot Yarns. I want to try their yarn one day. Their english site is here. http://gosyo.shop.multilingualcart.com/.
I am mainly working on larger drawing and sculpture projects rather than a few sketches. I need to draw MUCH more. But me working on projects 7 days of the week is a start, even if I do stop to play videogames.
Working on a comic, and an art robot sculpture that requires me to know about electrodynamics and basic physics/mechanics. Ugh.... probably should go to the sculpture studio tonight to work on it.

Miss Tori
This is Miss Toriko Starlight, my most frequent muse and the one who has been with me longest. Fourth or fifth grade?
I am supposed to be drawing comics for my thesis class. But she did not want to go away till I had drawn her.
