An Artistic Tumblog

My name is Eeve3, and this is my Tumblelog, dedicated to sharing a collective of interesting (mainly artistic) links, alongside sketches and doodles I make.

I’m sure if I’d have gone with my ideas and believed in them more I’d have done much better, and more importantly I would’ve actually enjoyed myself. I think the most important aspect of any artistic work is that it comes from you. If you want to draw a tree, it’ll turn out a million times better than a tree that you’re told to draw. Every time.

Education is the last place where you pretty much don’t have to give a fuck about what you’re supposed to do. As soon as you get into the “real world” you’ll have a hundred different people telling you to draw a hundred different trees. But whenever you make the time to draw that one tree that is because you want to you’ll notice the difference.

This is my advice to anyone on any kind of art course, phrased better than I ever could put it.

Hi thar! Long time no see. Since getting the Internet at my new place, I’ve been wondering what on Earth to do with my Tumblr; I’ve been so far using it as a place to reblog cool stuff, and that’s about it. I’d created two other Tumblogs on this account to use as WIP/sketch-dump blogs; one for my ‘proper’ portfolio (I may revive that at some point?), and one for my usual fare. But, really, there’s no need to have so many blogs, so I just deleted most of the stuff I’d posted (including a couple of blog posts you can find on my ‘proper’ Posterous blog, something which is also feeling a bit neglected), and more-or-less re-start this whole blog as something aiming for more of an artistic bent; posting my own miscellaneous works, links to cool art stuff, and so on. 

So to start with, have a scribble I started last night, of Marisa Kirisame of Touhou fame wielding a rocket launcher that Nitori built (how she knew how to, I don’t know. She’s probably in cahoots with Yukarin over that one). Just a concept sketch, but it seems too cool not to take further. Though I could really do with working more on Nitori’s face, and Marisa’s is a little bit creepy; she clearly stole more than she bargained for after stealing the technique for Master Spark! 

(Mostly, though, I just wanted an excuse to play with white gel pen on brown paper. )
