An Update from the Frustrated Artist

I recently re-read a number of my posts in this blog site (which also helped me get inspired to start writing here again) and I came across The Frustrated Artist (Really Frustrated), a blog I wrote after one of my painting sessions.

Years later, I can say I did improve a lot. I can now paint decently (relative to my watercolor works from years back) with watercolors. Some of my watercolor tubes I use now are still the same watercolors in the picture in my previous blog. I guesss that’s what I love about watercolors. Nothing goes to waste. You can just wet it and you can use it again. No need to even clean up your mixing plates every damn time.

This is my sketch of Angela, my favorite (most used) hero in MOBA Mobile Legends Bang Bang. She’s powerful for a support and easy to use. The drawing at the back is Hanabi.

I tried coloring it with watercolor and here’s the result:

I’ve also been trying to digital drawing, but drawing faces is really a challenge for me. The first subject of my digital drawings is Song Jihyo.

The first one is a vector art I made using Adobe Illustrator Draw on my phone. This is the first digital art I’ve made from a person’s photograph.

My succeeding digital drawings are made from my tablet’s Autodesk SketchBook. It’s easy to use and I couldn’t use Adobe Illustrator since it’s only free in the playstore for phones.

Hope I get more time to practice!
