Hey guys, happy new years to you all :) i stumbled upon ca.org a couple weeks back but i've only been lurking around, considering whether or not i should make a sb - and here i am, with a new years resolution ;)
my name's stephanie and i'm 15 (16 in three months! wahoooo) steph or amarone//ama is fine, though. i've always loved to draw for as long as i can remember, although personally - and my friends agree - i haven't really hit any drawing "milestones" until around 7th grade - that is, people could actually look at my drawings and figure out what i was trying to do... i never had any drawing lessons except a creative arts class throughout middle school but it was mostly just a free drawing period with various mediums, nothing like an actual lesson/class. i have big dreams for an artistic career, i'd love to work in the entertainment industry/video-game concept artist.
i got my wacom tablet at the end of march 2009 so going digital is still fairly new to me. i was entirely traditional - mostly pencilwork - before. i started from anime which progressed to anime/real life which progressed to comic?/real-life. i don't really sketch or do studies at the moment-part of my resolution for this sketch book is to actually make it a sketch book ;)...most of the stuff i do right now i aim to finish. that fact + no formal lessons probably explains my difficulties with anatomy and rendering. imo i do very well drawing directly aka "copying" from reference but when it comes to my imagination i spend a good amount of time getting anatomy and colors right. i'm actually hoping for some deep/even harsh crit here, i welcome them and will appreciate them very much ♥
the following stuff i will be posting in a few will be mostly finished works from the past few months :) the pic right below is something i'm working on right now.
