Day seven: whatever tickles your fancy
Day two: a picture
I couldn't decide what to do for this, and this is somewhat halfhearted because I really can't be bothered turning on the desktop to use the scanner, but...
Black Arabian mare. Pretty you might say, if you like horses (I do. I never grew out of the girly-horse thing). But why would I post this picture in particular, out of all the amazing pictures of horses out there?
Because this is the picture I'm currently mid-way through drawing (I apologise for the *appalling* quality; it's a pic off my phone because see above re. scanner. It's a lot less fuzzy in RL and takes up most of an A3 page):
A few weeks ago I remembered that I actually have a whole bunch of art stuff still lying around and if I put my mind to practising, I could probably make a passable artist. It's just making myself make the time to practise; this picture's been sitting around for about four weeks now so I've probably forgotten all the pencil techniques I was relearning again. Still, drawing is a whole different kind of soothing to anything else. I'd love to become properly good at it, so I'm definitely thinking I should make more time for it. This drawing is kind of the first thing I've done in years though, hence the not-quite-there-yet quality.
Now I have to turn off my internet for a while, because I've done nothing today and I really want to do *something*. I meant to accomplish a lot today and I really haven't. It sucks. Even though it's my fault. -_-
