Yeah, this dog was this happy in real life.

My boyfriend and I went to a party in the Summer, this dog was there. I HAD to draw it! Such a happy dog!

You'd swear too if you were the chosen one

Sorry for the language guys, but Harry is in a pretty serious situation and he's freaking out a little. This was also some experimenting with outlining in ink. Oh yeah, Hermione is there too. She's alright I guess.

Sneakity snake!

This is me, sneaking around a corner. I don't know what I'm planning, but my outfit is adorable. :P

Toon April

I just wanted to draw myself in Toon Link style. It's a really easy style to draw anything in and it looks so darn cute when you're done.

New Animations Soon

Prepare yourselves for actual animations from me! New animations. Not just dug up from years ago crap. This Christmas I'm getting ToonBoom so you bet that during the break there will be plenty of art-doing by me!! I really look forward to getting into 2D animation again. I only have 3D classes right now so I miss it dearly. Also, I suppose that soon I might render out some of my 3D assignments and post them up for some variety. 3D is definitely not my strong suit, but I'm not the worst that I've seen. With lots of practice, I think I could get a job in 3D but I don't quite enjoy doing it yet.

Mystery Woman

I don't even really remember drawing this. I have a vague recollection, but she just kinda showed up in my book. I like the shading on her pants.

I'm Gaga for Colour.

My favourite piece of art yet. It's not complicated. But it just looks so clean.

John Locke-topus

Don't dare tell him he can't golf, because as you can see, he totally can.
I'd like to colour this in photoshop soon. I think this could be a really fun piece.

Desert girls are hot.

These drawings sort of have a desert feel. Cleopatra, an exotic dancer, a grave robber of sorts. I like how bored Cleo looks.

A whole lotta practice.

I just thought I'd fill a page of different girls and different expressions. Just showing how I work when I'm not working on something polished.

When I'm sad I shade like a mofo.

I usually don't shade a whole heck of a lot. I was feeling pretty sad the day I drew this, and when I get sad I either colour or shade.

Angry!

I was mad one day. I forget why, but it was awesome.

Hope you guys don't mind if I Flash you...

Man practice. The Flash is also one of my favourite men, so why not? I think his little ear lightnings are simply adorable. <3

Luna and the Thestral

I just think thestrals are gorgeous. I drew this a few years ago.... Yes, I'm digging out lots of old art....but anyways.....the idea of thestrals is really intriguing and I needed to draw one after seeing one in Harry Potter. (Also, Luna's hair looks pretty. :3)

April's Magic Trick

Wow.... this was a few years ago. I loved this when I was working on it. I guess I still like it. :)

Lady Gaga, Batman the Animated Series Style


I don't know why but this is Lady Gaga in the style of Batman the Animated Series. Shes pretty much just Poison Ivy, Harley and Joker all in one. I really like this one a lot. :)

Oh, you like Nathan Fillion?? Me too.

Watching Castle one night, I drew Nathan Fillion. He's pretty charming and almost good looking. I'm a fan.

This drawing used to be in good taste.


This drawing originally had the little girl with a sucker in her mouth. My teacher then asked me if I could add a smoke trail to make it into a cigarette. After I added the smoke (on a different layer in case I didn't like it...) I thought it looked hilarious. In no way am I pro-smoking I just thought it looked funny.

Tattoo Design

A tattoo design that I am pretty proud of. It's done in light pencil, then outlined and shaded in ink with a dip pen and a wet brush. I needed a VERY steady hand!

I've decided to do something really awesome.

So I'm known for just drawing people that I see. It's usually very casual and quick sketchy-type things and most times it's just their face. I've now decided on doing something that will challenge me and hopefully fill my blog up with lots and lots of awesome. I'm in an animation course and my goal is to draw everyone in the course, all three years of it. I'm going to draw them from their head down to their toes, none of this "just the face" bull crap. A lot of someone's personality comes from their posture as well so maybe this way, people will be more recognizable. The people that I draw will also have the option to have a copy of these drawings to keep. (If they want it.... :P)

Wish me luck, everyone! I'm going to start this project very soon and there will be some progress posted in the next few days!

Love you guys, and thanks for the support!

Birthday Dress

This is the dress I wore for my birthday and I had to draw it, due to the fact that I got a sassy new haircut as well. :P (It wasn't a great night... but I looked awesome!)

Me in My Comfy Bed.

One night I couldn't sleep so I brought out the old tablet and decided to draw what I wanted to do. It worked and I fell asleep with my computer still on my lap.

My Best Friend.

My friend saw that I had drawn a bunch of little Toon Link style Aprils running about and doing various things. He thought they were adorable, so I made him his own version. Isn't he just so darn cute!?

Ye Olde Drawing I Found

I was feeling pretty inspired after buying a very fancy-schmancey notebook. I drew this a long time ago, and I still love it. <3

BAT-MAAAANNNNNN!!!! (Is a jerk!)

This drawing just.... happened. No planning. Just.... came to be. And yeah, I think it's weird too.
