let the seasons begin; art post

[longerthanwedo]

Under the cut you will find all my previously un-posted fanart: pretty much entirely portraits, some pencil and some digitally painted. And like one pen and one print, I think. This is what I do when I'm in class, basically. That and write, but my writing ends up having Misha's face doodled all over it so same diff.

These are BEAUTIFUL! What do you draw with? Probably a TOTALLY stupid question idec.

[longerthanwedo]

Thank you! Mostly just mechanical pencil, actually. If I need to do a really dark section then I'll use a softer one, but I don't use 87253486 different pencils like a lot of people.

You can do some hot shit with a mechanical pencil, girl! I drew my first decentish thing in a long time today but it does not even compare. I bet you can guess my favourite.

Thanks! What do you draw? Lolol, I wonder. Could it possibly be AMY ACKER?

YOU WIN THE TEDDY BEAR!

People, mostly. By that I mean women, mostly. One of the reasons I stopped was lol I have no range. Now you know where the lack of artistic confidence originally came from!

Duuuuude, I used to draw only women in the exact same way. I have like 10 sketchbooks full of drawings that all look similar. But then I drew a guy, and it all went uphill from there xD

lmao I will have to try that. Quell my inner raging lesbian.

Have you ever sent any of your portraits into the actors? Your stuff could be on Cribs!

[longerthanwedo]

Those inner lesbians put up a tough fight, it's true.

I have! Actually, most of the ones I've sent to the subjects are my portraits of musicians. But Dichen Lachman has seen my drawing of her, and... I think that's it, actor-wise.

Ooh! That's so cool, and Dichen's so fab. I would totes pick her for a portrait for no other reason than she has a cool-ass attitude about life and I want to marry her.

Plus she's gorgeous, so that's a bonus.
