Lyraina's sketchbook

[Lyraina]

Archreux: Thank you! :) Haha, I'll definitely stare some more at people. Just really need to get used to it, and the weekend was a good start on that since in Dresden/Berlin are way more people packed in one place than what I'm used to! Those recent studies are just me working on fundamentals again, mostly areas that I realized I am lacking when I did the last batch of finished pieces during cgma class. So I'm trying to polish what I was most unhappy with now (some color issues, but mostly drawing/structure/perspective things and also workflow), then do more finished stuff again and work on design, rinse and repeat :) Thanks for the comment! I will send you a note about the notes.

Mike: Haha! I was worrying a whole lot about drawing in public, and I can tell you, my adrenalin levels were so high I'm not sure how I managed to get some straight lines down. But I was worrying about a lot more at that weekend anyway, so decided to go all in and face all of my fears at once :P But it definitely can be fun! And there's not much to be lost, a few strange looks won't kill you, so I'd say just give it a try! Not sure about the getting arrested part. If that's your goal, maybe try some life sketching in girls' changing rooms somewhere? :P
But jokes aside, bring sunglasses and earphones if it makes you feel better - I sure wished I had thought of bringing those so separate myself a bit more from the outside world while drawing.
ramalooke: Haha, thanks a lot! Not sure you have anything to catch up to since you're way ahead, but revising fundamentals is always a good thing to do! :D

pnate: Thanks! I'll send you a postcard from prison after following your advice! :D

Cyprinus: Thank you! :) Yeah, I guess it's not really all that dramatic, I'll just have to get used to it and be less nervous about it!

Happy Halloween.



Not sure if WIP or scrap. Why can't I paint rocks...
