Apron dresses, my way

As I imagine loungewears, I can't help but want to create apron dresses, and when they, by any chance, materialize, I want them to be denim, comfy, airy, and utilitarian with lots of useful pockets. 

Face Study 3

Made a face study this weekend, it's bigger than the last time. What do you think of those blush ons? 

I kind of like them. 😊

Flamingo Colors

Tried my new Staedtler Triplus "Flamingo" Pens. So far it was okay, it wasn't the tip that I was expecting but some colors are nice.

My first attempt in trying to draw a rose. I want to draw flowers, too.

My "Library" and Nook

Upon the arrival of my treadmill, I suddenly felt the drive to rearrange my spaces. And cleaning came next.

It was past 12 am and I was moving my things around. I hoped I didn't disturb anyone. I think I was making a lot of noise for 5 mins while I was pulling my sewing machine out the nook.

It was tiring but time flew by fast, when I checked the time, it was 2:20-ish am already.

So just to share, here's my workspace and "library" because my long table made this area look like one and I work here. The  nook where I used to put my sewing machine somehow looks like a treadmill room now. 😅

Ovicx Q1

Last week, I decided that I was going to get myself a treadmill. 

I hope to get back to exercising. I NEED IT. I gained weight and not losing any. My mother approves of it, she also wants one and I want one. It's a win win situation.

Katas to ng work from home. 😅😂

It's easy to set up but it's heavy, it wasn't light at all. Everything is compact. Setting it up is intuitive and I just followed a video from YouTube. 

It looks better than what you see in the picture, bigger and more spacious, too.

Arte time: A wrap up

There is magic in pen and paper that helps me clear my head. Perhaps it's the energy I put in shading colors, in stroking lines, in selecting colors, in putting my ideas on the paper... 

Looking at these outputs reveal to me that I like vibrant colors, cute and feminine aesthetics is shown in my drawings, and I love using pens. 

I hope I continuously illustrate even after my short vacation. I really enjoyed this and I want to be be good at this. ❤️

Face Studies

Yesterday I made my first face study and did another one today. I'll finish coloring tomorrow.

Today's study

To add, down to my last sheet in my sketchpad, I made two figures. It was supposed to be three but I messed up the third one.

Hand and face study

Practice practice, I'll get a hang of drawing the hands. Still not slim and seamless enough. More practice pa to. 

The face, too. I want a signature face for my drawings. 

Came up with a face study, here it is:

More illustrations ...

My kind of clothes and colors. I designed few garments the other day and kind of thought of putting them on one page. 

I am enjoying this activity so much. What a good way to destress, find something therapeutic to do, and practice all at the same time. 

Used Dong-A Hexaplus Fineliner for my mask ladies. They wear masks, so should you. Stay safe!

Reimagining fashion figure shapes

I hope for the day to come that body diversity will be genuinely acceptable to the fashion industry. 

I used crayola, Dong-A, and colored pencils here.
