Color me : The Beginning!


Well...it's been a long time since when I did something just for fun. Taking a summer course, I've been "working like a house-elf" (J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series!) and haven't found time to pick up my good ol' pencil! However, I was looking through my sketch book the other day and I realized I can take some of them to the next level. Though my sketch book is nothing like those of all artists I know, I decided to take a leaf out of their book (in this case, sketch book!) and color my drawings one by one. It will be a fun practice!
I'm learning digital painting on my own which means making mistakes first and then learning from them is inevitable. I know it's a long way but I prefer it to the high way!

Cheers :-)

Unbelievable!

Something AMAZING has happened! You won't believe this...well...that's the way AMAZING stuffs should be; unexpected and hard-to-believe! I've received a surprise email couple of days back from a lovely friend, Caitlin Malone, informing me that she'd got a tattoo - here comes the AMAZING part - and it's the lil' mermaid sketch I posted way back in my blog. I've forgotten about it really and when I saw the picture of Caitlin's tattoo, my mouth just fell open!! Am grateful that she shared this news with me; it really made my day...thanks a million Caitlin!

Cheers :-)

PS - By the way, the tattoo artist who's done such a great job is Charlie White. Thanks Charlie! :-)
