Esses foram as minhas 31 artes do Inktober 2017. Foi o quarto ano seguido que participo.

Postei todas as artes no meu instagram.

Escolhi temas para cada semana:

• Primeira semana: Animal Crossing;
• Segunda semana: Doctor Who;
• Terceira semana: Alice no País das Maravilhas/Através do Espelho;
• Quarta semana: As várias faces de Zelda, de The Legend of Zelda;
• Meia semana final: Halloween.

E por que estou postando no blog meses depois. Er… por que esqueci de postar antes??? Bom, eu gostei muito das artes desse inktober. 🙂

Ah, utilizei apenas uma pena G, nanquim e aquarela cinza. Alguns detalhes bem pequenos em algumas artes usei em conjunto uma caneta Micron Sakura e na semana da Zelda usei uma caneta marcador dourada chinesa. Bem tradicional mesmo. Foi a primeira vez que trabalhei com a pena G (só tinha utilizado uma mosquito anos atrás) e foi um desafio só utilizar essa pena para fazer praticamente tudo. No final, acho que aprendi a trabalhar melhor com ela. Pena que deixei a prática de lado depois do Inktober… mas nesse ano vou repetir o esquema da pena G. 😉

For the second time, I joined Inktober, the challenge to make a drawing a day all october with ink pens.

I love to work with ink pens, but a drawing a day is quite a challenge. Last year, I made one drawing per week.

But this year I was determined to do 31 drawings, and take a picture and post in my instagram.

And I did.

But it was not easy, no. Some days I had no idea what to do… because I had a little time to work on something better. I chose a small canvas to work each day to be more comfortable.

I made a lot of cute chibis for the sake of easiness. Some drawings tutorials helped me to learn what I did not know how to draw. But I had a lot of fun, in general.

It’s a curious thing… to make room in your schedule every day to work on a drawing. And even more to someone who don’t work only with art. Being an engineering student by day and an illustrator by night it’s a kinda busy schedule.

And it’s so easy to procrastinate, isn’t it? When you open your eyes, you spend one month without finishing a thing.

It’s nice to do some art, and have a bit of improvement.

I heartily recommend to do some art challenges, because sometimes (for me) is the only thing that make me do art more often, and to remember to not get myself stressed about college so much.

But you know what? It’s November 1th and I spent the day kinda thinking I had to draw something, hehehe.

 

What I did:

• 1 – A pretty kimono, inspired by a figurine I own.
• 2 – Alice and Mitsu (my character), from the game series Animal Crossing.
• 3 – Tuppence Beresford, from Agatha Christie’s books, inspired by the TV serie Partners in Crime (2015)
• 4 – Hylia, from the game series The Legend of Zelda (kinda forgot the little circlet… heheh).
• 5 – A matrioska doll.
• 6 – A pretty bicycle.
• 7 – A pocket watch (been watching a lot of Poirot these days…)

• 8 – Some lotus flowers.
• 9 – An owl.
• 10 – Alice and Cheshire, from Alice in Wonderland.
• 11 – Peggy Carter, from the tv serie Agent Carter.
• 12 – A chibi Chun Li, from the game series Street Fighter.
• 13 – A butterfly.

• 14 – A celtic inspired harp.
• 15 – A vintage bird cage.
• 16 – A chinese dragon.
• 17 – Ichihara Yuuko, from the manga xxxHOLiC.
• 18 – A chibi Watanuki Kimihiro, from the manga xxxHOLiC.
• 19 – An old key.

• 20 – Chinese lanterns.
• 21 – Some lilies.
• 22 – A dreamcatcher.
• 23 – A crown.
• 24 – Tasketê as a kawaii sprite.
• 25 – A mask

• 26 – A kokeshi doll.
• 27 – Kunogi Himawari, from the manga xxxHOLiC.
• 28 – Miss Cupcake and Wolf, from my sister’s blog.
• 29 – A cat doing some magic.
• 30 – A cute chibi version of myself and my dog Leo for my birthday.
• 31 – Kinomoto Sakura, from the manga Card Captor Sakura.

 

So, YAY for me! 😀

 

I joined #inktober for the first time ever. Ink pens are my favorite medium, so a challenge about them is so wonderful to me.

I actually remembered about it in the first weekend of october. Even so, my tight shedule only allowed me to post one piece each weekend. So, the first piece was made at the last minute… all of them were posted first at my instagram account.

Here are my comments about each piece:

Weekend 1 – Take a Leap of Faith: Such an obscure reference… from the show I love to hate: Once Upon a Time. This line was said by my absolutely favorite character from this damned show: August Wayne Booth. Because I have faith that he’ll be back this season (Fandom: I WAS HOPING). My artwork is a redemption of his mysterious box and his typewriter. Because, you know… August IS a writer. (good luck with your theories about who is the author… err, lets stop right here, because I’m sooo bitter with all of this.) Also, at the beginning of october I watched a friend of mine and my sister taking “leaps of faith” with their books. So, this one is dedicated to all writers out there. 🙂

Weekend 2 – Tower of Strenght (Love is a tower, you’re the key): I got Spotify this month. I don’t know why I never tried it before. I discovered a lot of songs from artists I already love, but didn’t have the whole discography. “You are” by Pearl Jam was stuck in my head…. so this happened.

Weekend 3 – Tiny: For a while I wanted to draw a tiny scene, in which houses in tree trunks and giant mushrooms were involved. It was kinda rushed, but I had a lot of fun while drawing it.

Weekend 4 – Forest: I have a thing for fairyland woods. And I also realised that this whole set is about fairylands. A nice coincidence, hahaha!

Extra – Flight: Flight was made for this month Creative Every Day, and I posted earlier this week. But it was made with ink too, and colored with color pencils. So it’s the 5th piece, as suggested in the challenge… I went with the 5k route. 🙂

So proud to finish this challenge successfully!

Participei do #inktober pela primeira vez esse ano. A caneta é o meu material favorito, então um desafio usando ela é maravilhoso para mim.

Na verdade, eu lembrei dele no primeiro final de semana de outrubro. Mesmo assim, meu horário apertado só permitia postar um artwork a cada final de semana. O primeiro foi feito em cima da hora… todos foram postados primeiro na minha conta do instagram.

Weekend 1 – Take a Leap of Faith: Uma referência tão obscura… da série que eu amo odiar: Once Upon a Time. Essa frase foi dita pelo meu personagem absolutamente favorito de toda essa maldita série: August Wayne Booth. Porque eu tenho fé que ele vai voltar nessa temporada (Fandom: I WAS HOPING). Meu artwork é um regate da sua caixa misteriosa e sua máquina de escrever. Porque, você sabe…. o August É um escritor (boa sorte com suas teorias sobre quem é o autor… err… vamos parar por aí, porque ainda ando muito amarga com tudo isso). E também vi um amigo meu e minha irmã darem “saltos de fé” com seus livros, então esse também é dedicado à todos os escritores por aí. 🙂

Weekend 2 – Tower of Strenght (Love is a tower, you’re the key): Baixei o Spotify esse mês, e não sei por que não tinha feito isso antes. Descobri várias músicas de artistas que eu já adoro, mas não tinha a discografia completa. “You are” by Pearl Jam não saía da minha cabeça… então isso aconteceu.

Weekend 3 – Tiny: Tem um tempinho que queria desenhar uma cena pequenininha, cm que casas em troncos de árvores e cogumelos gigantes estivessem envolvidos. Foi meio corrido, mas me diverti bastante desenhando esse.

Weekend 4 – Forest: I tenho uma coisa por florestas de contos de fadas. E, também percebi que todos esses desenhos foram sobre contos de fadas. Uma coincidência legal, hahaha!

Extra – Flight: Flight foi feita para o Creative Every Day desse mês, e postei no começo da semana. Mas ela foi feita com caneta também, e pintada com lápis de cor. Então, esse é o 5º desenho, como sugerido no desafio… fiz a rota dos cinco desenhos. 🙂

Muito orgulhosa de ter terminado com sucesso esse desafio!
