SHE HAS A TUMBLR

2 min read

_{I made an art blog guys

pockypaint-sketches.tumblr.com

There I'll be posting WIPs, progress pictures, finished pics that I don't want to post in my gallery, and other stuff. Right now there are only a few posts but they're mostly pictures of me practicing with the copic markers I got for Christmas.

I hope to post on that blog much more regularly than I'm posting here on my dA right now (not that that would be very difficult....) so YEAH ANYWAY IF YOU HAVE A TUMBLR PLEASE GO CHECK IT OUT <3}

Hello friends! / Drawing bucket list

4 min read

_{Hi all,

I know it's been a while, but I just want to thank everyone who has stopped by my profile over the past few months! I just realized this evening that I've only posted one deviation within the past year. It's kind of crazy. I've been really busy with schoolwork, college prep, and other personal things and I haven't drawn anything that I've felt is worthy of posting here in my dA gallery.

BUT, I really want to breathe some life back into this lil' gallery of mine! I want to set some goals for myself that will motivate me to keep coming back and keep drawing.

So, here are some things that I want to do:

I want to create a new OC or a group of OCs to practice design and character development. Then maybe I can use them for roleplaying or for writing stories of my own!
Someday, I want to create my own manga.
Someday I want to create an inventory of works that's refined enough and diverse enough to stock a table at an anime convention.
I want to create pieces of artwork with meaning, not just random poses of characters.
I want to create enough new works to be able to gain some consistency in my style and begin taking commissions, maybe as soon as this summer.
I want to get better with color theory to create pieces with a united color scheme.
I want to take more risks with my artwork instead of just staying in my comfort zone. I want to practice more with using exciting color schemes, poses, facial expressions, and compositions.
I want to get better at drawing backgrounds.
I want to stop comparing myself to other artists and take more pride in my individual style and my individual improvements.
I want to develop my own style of drawing characters and coloring so that it is unique.

I think what makes these goals so hard to achieve is because they are so abstract. Anyway, I think all artists are striving to improve all the time! If you have any experiences struggling to achieve these same goals, I'd love to talk with you :') It's been a long time since I've been on dA and I wanna meet some new people!

Anyway, thanks for reading

P.S. I am SO happy that I'm not "Miss-Amane" anymore xD Oh god. Middle school. *shudders*}

Kai Kashine's 1-Year Anniversary

1 min read

On the 29th, it will be Kai's 1-year anniversary! I can hardly believe it!!

I know I haven't given him enough attention lately, so in celebration of this event I had him sing a cover of Jin's popular song Imagination Forest!

Check it out here: youtu.be/2hSaZhIGKNs

Thank you to everybody who has left kind comments on Kai's pictures and videos. I really appreciate it!!

AP Exam done = get my life back

So that's all I wanted to say. Just...hello, I'm still alive, and I'll probably be posting some pictures in the relatively near future~

Thank you so much to all of who who have continued to fave my artwork even during my absence...I love you for that

Hello all :)

It's been a while, huh?
I've been lurking, but I haven't really posted anything in a long time. I blame schoolwork...

But anyway, I hope everybody's having a wonderful holiday!

So, getting to the point of why I wrote this journal entry in the first place...

I'm thinking about opening up for commissions.

I really need some money, and I think that drawing would be a nice way to earn some for myself.

Is anybody interested? If somebody even so much as expresses interest in commissioning me, I'm sure I would be ecstatic and I'd open them up in a heartbeat!

Please post a comment or send me a note if you're interested

Also, I have a bunch of art prints left over from the Summer Matsuri!! If you're interested in a Miku: Crow's Twilight print or a Kai Kashine print, I'd be ready and willing to sell them for $7 a piece!

Miku Hatsune: Crows' Twilight by pockypaint

And an image of Naruko, which I'll post a link to soon!

I also have buttons of the following designs:

And an exclusive design of Misa Amane which I haven't posted on dA!

Buttons will be sold at $3.50 a piece. All payments can be made through PayPal! Send me a note/comment if you're interested!! ^^

I've been super inactive all school year because of my AP US History class...I haven't finished any pictures for months ;w; It's really sad when I think about it... BUT NO MORE OF THAT. I took the final exam today, so we shouldn't have any more work in that class....I can just...RELAX. There. I said it. I CAN RELAX. It's an unfamiliar concept...but I'm sure I'll adjust quickly. ~imhappynodplz (https://www.deviantart.com/imhappynodplz) So that's all I wanted to say.
