Rekindling a love for drawing
[Waiting in Vain @

Pardon the utterly wrong capitalizations for a title, but I've recently redeveloped an old hobby of mine; drawing. It all started with the hated art class. We were told to do FOUR paintings of surrealism in the course of, 3 or 4 weeks. Lots of time, right? Noooo, I managed to procrastinate till the absolutely last moments of the deadline, tomorrow. So here I was, rushing to complete 4 paintings in the course of 3 days, after 2 years of hiatus from any type of drawing. I've chosen watercolor as my tool (after failing with acrylic because the darn teacher told us to buy acrylic paints, failing to tell us that they are absolutely horrendous to use with SKETCH PAPER. I ruined a perfectly good sketch by using acrylic. Plus it was my first time too), which I bought in emergency near the canteen. It was a stupid cake color set, but it suited my need.

So I went home at Wednesday, panicking utterly since I have to get all 4 paintings done by Friday. I was skeptical at first on what to use. The last time I used pastels was when I was 8, acrylic is well..., I fail at penciling, and I'm not using canvases, therefore no oils. Remembering the last lesson I had 2 years ago on watercolor, I grabbed my watercolor and started painting the sky of my half done painting (mix of acrylics and color pencils). Now, I'll be honest. It turned out sorta crappy, the sky, but it looked kinda good from 5 meters away, so I let it go with a harumph, seeing that it was my first time after a long hiatus anyways.

Second painting: I rummaged through my picture folders, found a picture of a woman's back, so I improvised by making her cut through her back and revealing an eye, which suits the theme of 'eye and hand'. It turned out quite well, managed to blend the shadows smoothly, initially screwed up the hair, but it was acceptable after a lot of layering. Well, it was good, until I drew wisps of hair on her hand. Then it turned horrendous. Again, I let it go. I'm a perfectionist by nature (I would never dream of letting my creative writings out without at least reading it 10 times), but I hadn't the time to re-do all the whole painting.

I'm quite pleased to say, though, that even though I'm not happy with the paintings (or parts of it), I'm pleased with what I've learned through my blunders. I'm working on a third piece now, and after I've completed the task, I'll hop on to the art supply store and begin to practice painting at least weekly.
