Silence, is Golden.

It takes a certain type of patience, strength and courage to be able to speak no truth, no lies, no words. In the best of times, but also in the worst of times, silence is all it takes. We can sometimes find comfort, and also sorrow.
So instead, look into my eyes, and tell me what you see.

HAPPY EASTER! Hope you had an awesome weekend and long-weekend for some lucky few!
And from this long weekend and mid-semester break from university, I managed to find some time for myself to draw this piece. It's been sooo long since I last painted digitally, almost two months! So I'm feeling a little rusty, but hopefully I can keep it up again

PS - side question: I've been suggested here and there to start recording my drawing processes as speedpaint videos, and I was just wondering if anybody would be remotely interested in it if I were to start recording and putting them on my youtube channel?

It's great to see you back! 

This is amazing, I can't stop looking at it *^*
I think her eyes are my favorite part, they're so intense <3

About the speedpaint videos, yes please, I love watching art videos and I would definitely watch yours, I'm sure I would learn a lot.

THANK YOUU! ♥♥

It's such a great feeling to be back. Honestly, I was really nervous to suddenly come back from a long disappearance. Was scared that nobody would remember me or care, but it's so touching to feel so welcomed back haha. Even though it wasnt that long really.

The eyes are pretty much my favourite part as well. As you can probably guess, I REALLY love eyes HAHA. It's about the way they can speak, and say so much with so little. Windows to the soul!

For real? I want to start making vids and tutorials, and maybe even teach people for whoever would care.

You're really welcome! <3

Well, you don't have to be nervous about that. I definitely LOVE your art, it's always super inspiring, so seeing it appear in my DA and Tumblr today after a while really made my day. *^*

I'm totally with you on that, I love eyes, they can be really expressive by themselves and I love that. They are one of my favorite things to draw, although I'm still trying to give them more life and expression. Practice makes perfection I guess! xD

Totally! Speedpaint videos are great, but even tutorials and stuff like that? It would be amazing! I really struggle with digital art, so I'm always searching for good tutorials, they are a great way to learn and try new techniques.

You're killing me here with all the love :')
I can't believe that seeing my work could even lift your day even the little //right in the feels

ME TOO! If you look at my sketchbooks theres like an eye or 10 in every page HAHA. YES! KEEP GOING

Yeah! See, I know that feeling and being thrown into the digital art world is really over whelming because there's nowhere to start and theres just tooo much. I still dont even know how I learnt to this day!

 I'm drawing too now, but not digital, drawing with pencil some sketches right now.
How about you?

kelogsloops In reply to Catstudio7 [2015-04-05 17:26:11 +0000 UTC]

YEAH! Me too. Well, that's all I could do for the past few weeks. I could never find time to just sit down and paint digitally for hours because of workload. SO I only ever got time for ksetches and watercolour pieces

Are you gonna put any up soon!?!?!?

Catstudio7 In reply to kelogsloops [2015-04-05 17:57:13 +0000 UTC]

Well, I have the same! I really want to draw stuff, watercolors and digital art and stuff. But I finally got time now to draw, there is only 1 report I have to write about art history. It's pretty big and we have to make illustrations for it as well. ;A; I did drew some small sketchy drawings in the new sketchbook I brought earlier.
But not sure when I will do my next watercolor drawing. I'm working on a drawing now, but I'm not sure if I will do it digital or with watercolors...;v;

Oooooooo.

Do show me or tell when you do it!
Try both even? Digital and Watercolour can actually work sooo well, I've seen some people do it and it looks AWESOME

Catstudio7 In reply to kelogsloops [2015-04-09 17:34:32 +0000 UTC]

Hey! XD

Well, I tried it but I found out that the paper was to small to even start coloring it with watercolors....and later I ruined it with my black pens so I'm glad I scanned the drawing before messing up. So it will turn our being a digital drawing instead. ^^|| I felt disappointed after I messed up, worked the whole morning to get it ready and than, bamm, you ruin it and can start over from the beginning....   .___.
Next time, I draw something that is bigger and hopefully I won't mess that up as well..I wanted to do a watercolor drawing so badly..
Well, I try it next time, got more idea's I want to try out, this just didn't work.
But I might upload the drawing I was working on, but then digital colored, so keep an eye on it. :3

Phew! See, thats why I'm terrified of watercolours hahaha. It really does suck because you put in so much effort getting it ready and it's all going so good and them bam!!!!!!

Ahh well, we can only keep practicing!

You gotta keep going! Don't give up on watercolours Renee!

Catstudio7 In reply to kelogsloops [2015-04-25 19:05:28 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha I won't give up, i will practice more and more and make sure I make copies next time XD I mostly always scan my drawing, before I think I will mess them up.
I got a long weekend this time soI hope I can draw some, but also got homework so I need to share my time. ;v;
When I made a watercolour drawing, I sure let you know about it!

kelogsloops In reply to Catstudio7 [2015-04-27 16:49:05 +0000 UTC]

YES!!! I can't wait to see what you come up with for the long weekend. Especially if it's a watercolour tehe.

I honestly used to scan my drawings before I worked on them, but I kinda had to reinforce my fear and just tell myself 'NO!! ONE SHOT, MAKE IT COUNT!'

Which is a weird mentality, but It kinda works for me!

Catstudio7 In reply to kelogsloops [2015-04-27 17:02:32 +0000 UTC]

Hahah Well up so far no watercolour drawing yet. ;v; But I soon got holidays, 4th of May till 17th of May.

I honestly, am afraid to do a watercolour, that's why I haven't done anything yet. College isn't helping either but I managed to finish 2 big poster projects.
One of them is for a festival that is hold on the 5th of May, together with posters of other people, they will spread them through the city. X3 It's cool to see your work hang into the city. I only haven't heard if they already spread it or not, if they did, I need to go and look for it so I can make a picture of it. XD
Anyway, I hope to do some watercolours soon, as soon as I find back my courage. *goes and hide in a corner.*

msdafjkafnafn I don't have that mentality, give it to me!! ;A;

Reading old messages is so funny because you say 'no watercolour yet so far' but really... HHAHAHAHAH ( I FREAKEN LOVE IT ♥)

Holy CRAP, you're actually SOO BUSY! That's a decked out week I tell ya! Did you pull through alright?

Honestly though, just looking at how well made that watercolour piece was, you have no reason tobe afraid!!!!

I'm glad you do!!

Yeah, I managed somehow XD I only haven't found my poster so that's too bad. Only the weather wasn't helping either.
It was raining all day, so I guess there wasn't much left of it either. 

dmsnfsdf,df I will try! Now I'm afraid all my other works will be less good then this one.
 I really need to do something about my self-confidence ;v;

NO! You will always think that, but even if you sketch and practice here and there and mentally think 'its not better than my other one,' it's simply a stepping stone to your next massive success!! It's a learning process!!!

I'll let you know when I get it going! Gotta get a good idea first haha. the one thing I'm paranoid about is my tendency to 'rotate' the canvas. I made a video ages ago and I had no idea what it looked like when you sped up the video a crap load, and you forgot that you rotate the canvas ALOT.

It was like a whirlwind hahha
