Inferno

'The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll be able to function as a soldier is supposed to function: without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it.' -Ronald Spiers-

I somehow love this quote. This picture was inspired by the HBO series 'Band of Brothers'. The particular scene that really inspired me was when they were fighting in the Ardennes forest, Bastogne, Belgium's border to Germany, where they were surrounded and cut out of supplies. This scene is more popularly known as the Battle of the Bulge. Love Major Winter, followed by Spiers, Buck Compton, Eugene 'gene' Roe and Captain Nixon.

Richard Winters: These men have been through the toughest training the Army has to offer, under the worst possible circumstances, and they volunteered for it
'Buck' Compton: Christ, Dick, I was just shooting craps with them.
Richard Winters: You know why they volunteered? Because they knew that the man in the foxhole next to them would be the best, not some draftee who's going to get them killed.
'Buck' Compton: Are you ticked because they like me? Because I'm spending time to get to know my soldiers? I mean, c'mon, you've been with them for two years? I've been here for six days.
Richard Winters: You were gambling, Buck.
'Buck' Compton: So what? Soldiers do that. I don't deserve a reprimand for it.
Richard Winters: What if you'd won?
'Buck' Compton: What?
Richard Winters: What if you'd won? Don't ever put yourself in the position where you can take from these men.

Sunset over the tree

I'm sorry i haven't been submitting any drawings lately because i just started my college..A-levels..blah..anyways the moment i saw this scenery/ picture i knew i wanted to paint it..and here it is...i can paint it better but i don't the paper is good enough..i have to find better materials..but for now i guess this will do..

I think sunsets are just really beautiful. It makes you calm and feel all warm and fuzzy inside.haha.owh and it's also very romantic. but i think you all already know that.hehe. I'm really glad about how the tree turned out. i actually did that with ink pen. painfully trying to get the leaves just right and it was all worth it. i really needed to draw. it's been soo long, i was afraid that i forgot how to draw.

What really made me wanna jump back to drawing was the other day in college. I brought my sketchbook and folio cause i friends wanted to see it. Their reactions reminded me of why i love drawing so much. some even said that i could sell my drawings and they would buy it. that really boosted me up. In a way i was kind of surprise cause, well nobody ever said that to me. I mean of course i know i can draw, but i never thought i could do it very well.So thank you guys.

Anyways, i'm on my mid-term break. I'm trying to do as much artwork as i can before the holidays end. so wish me luck!

Tick Tock Tick Tock

Okayh...i haven't been drawing much this couple of days cause i've been busy. Well, sorta. I'm just enjoying my time before i have to go to college. You know since i'll be living there. Also i haven't been much inspired to draw and there's no use drawing when you don't feel like it. Then it's just gonna turned out like crap cause your heart is not into it. Anyways, after watching Transformers(that movie is just sooo awesome!), I've caught the drawing bug again. Hopefully i'll draw my hearts out before i have to move into my hostel which is this Sunday!! Tick tock tick tock..time is definitely running out. So i have to stop procrastinating and get gear on in full drawing mode. Wish me Luck!

Anyways, as you can see, it's a picture of Bumblebee! My fav transformer. He's just so cute and loyal. You can always count on Bumblebee to save you when you're in trouble. I want a Bumblebee!! hehe. It took me well over 4 hours just to draw this. I'm planing to colour it but maybe a another day. I got a headache just by drawing this. I'm also afraid that i'll ruin the picture if i colour it. I mean i'm not that good at colouring so why waste 4 hours of precious hard work. So, we'll see. You can already guess that my inspiration for this picture is Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. It was awesome! i worship the graphics! but on the downside it was a tad too dramatic for me. But all in all a good movie. I think i'll be doing alot more of tansformers pictures after this. Just hope that it won't give me a headache like this one did.

Tattoos and Good Mornings

Sorry i haven't been updating lately. I've been busy preparing for college. I'm going to check into my hostel on the 5th of July. My college starts on the 6th of July. So, i'm pretty excited yet nervous about it.

Anyways, the first drawing is titled ' The tattoos on her back'. i always find tattoos on a girls back sexy. especially at the shoulder and at the lower hips like in the drawing. When i was drawing this i was thinking of a guy that met a girl. it was only for a brief moment. But somehow he can't forget her even until many years later. He doesn't even know her but all he knows are the tattoos on her back. If i were to get a tattoo i would get like in the drawing. but maybe a different design on the lower hips. But i love the idea of having a picture of a feather tattooed. It was when i was working i saw this customer who had it and it looked so pretty. Not only does it look pretty but it's interesting. It shows that you are a soft but deep person. I don't know. That's just what i think. I decided not to draw the jeans cause first i really don't know how to draw jeans and secondly it would ruin the picture. So, i'm just going to leave it as it is. Since i can't have tattoos, i could only dream and draw about it.

The second drawing is titled ' Good Morning Sleepy Head'. Basicly it's about a nice wake up call. I know i would want it but it would be a guy not a girl. haha. When you have a good morning, it will set the rest of your day. and it looks like the guy in the drawing would have a pretty good day. lolx.

So, hopefully i wont be too busy to continue drawing.

I miss you

I did something like this awhile ago but it didn't turn out as well as this one did. something that i always wanted to do. jump on someone! haha.

Anyways, the tittle says it all 'I miss you'. The reaction when 2 people meet after being apart for awhile. The pure joy of seeing someone that you miss so much. When you are so happy that you forget about everything else. Nothing else matters except for that someone. Obviously i'm missing someone.hehe. I miss you baby!

Brown is the colour

A found a picture of the first drawing and thought 'That's a nice picture to draw'. I think the picture is peaceful. I chose the colour of her eyes brown because i think it's a warm colour that can melt any heart of stone.lol. I find that this drawing makes you want to know more. It's the mystery behind her eyes. Anyways, I'm really happy with this drawing

For the second drawing, Well it's basicly a picture of a horse. I have always wanted to do a picture of a horse. They're my favorite animal. I love it how they are often used as a symbol of freedom. I did this in watercolour.I'm quite satisfied with it. I hope to draw more pictures of horses in the future. I find it easier to colour animals and landscapes than people. So i guess i'll keep continuing doing that. I'm also really glad i manage to do 2 drawings in one day. well actually 3, but the other one i'm not satisfied with. lol. god, i'm such a perfectionist.

Anyways, tomorrow is my dad's bday. So, i'll have to come out with a card. Which means that i might not be drawing today or tomorrow(i'm going tomorrow to celebrate it). I have to make up to it later.

When all my inspiration is at a minimum, I'll probably start drawing characters like harry potter and stuff. The only problem with it is it's a very frustrating thing to draw cause it never comes out the way you want it to. But i'll deffinately try.

Always Me,

A little bit of colour

This was actually a fast drawing compared to my usual drawing. It's not like i intend it to. I just had this idea and i started drawing it. I finished the drawing faster than usual. So, i consider this a fast drawing. I wanted to highlight the eyes. That's why i decided to coloured it. I thought it would be nice to capture the beauty of it. Green came into my mind instantly. I think green is a very mesmerizing colour. Sorry i haven't been posting lately. I'm trying to reach my target of one picture one day. But like my boyfriend said "don't put so much preasure on yourself. It'll take all the fun out of it. then, your drawings wouldn't be nice and you would end up upset. If you don't feel like drawing today, that's okay." Now that's some really good advice. So i'm taking it one step at the time. Like the saying goes 'Rome wasn't build in a day' . I have some other pictures, just that my dad's been using the computer which has the scanner. So i'll just have to be patience and take day by day.

Last Minute Drawing

Okay. This is a drawing i did last night at around 11pm while waiting for my boyfriend to call me. I was doodling at first and it turned out like this. I'm actually very happy with this picture. Though i do need some work drawing guys. Maybe i'll edit him later in the future. For now i'm satisfied with this work. I'm also very happy that i'm reaching my goal which is one drawing for one day. I hope this inspiration will carry on. I found that my skills are getting better too. But it has only been 3 days, so we'll see. This reminds me of me and my boyfriend just laying down(don't get any dirty thoughts) and just talking and laughing. it just feels so peaceful and happy. i really miss that. After i finished this work i also found out that it resembles alot like when Edward and Bella was at the meadow. lol. Anyways, you can look at it anyway you like. For me it's just a happy memory.

Rush Colour

Okayh...i think i was in a rush to do something today, so i came up with this. It's just the feeling of waiting for that something that will make you complete. Sorry about the horrible background i was kinda lazy to do it. I probably re-do it. anyways, the scene where Edward leaves Bella in the forest also inspired this.

Not like any other blog

Okayh.i've tried my hand at this before and it never really worked out.Either i'm just too lazy to update it or i forgot bout it. So why the heck am i doing this blog? I did it for my artworks. That's right, this is not going to be a blog where i rant out all my thoughts to the world. I have my boyfriend for that.hehe. This is a place where i'm going to display all my artworks and my inspiration behind it. I hope this will keep me motivated to draw and improve as an artist. and yes, i do have an deviantart account. i just wanted to do something more. no harm with doing that right? Allrite enough said. First work:






I've been listening to alot of classical music lately so bare with me. Okayh this was inspired by the song Bella Notte by Ludovico Einaudi. It's a beautiful song yet sad and tragic at the same time. The story behind this picture is the pain of losing everything or atleast the one that you love and you can't do anything bout it but just stand and watch. Yes very tragic indeed. I was thinking more of her losing control and end up killing or hurting the one she loved. yet she can't do anything bout it but just watch at the chaos she created.Hopefully i'll come up with more cheerful and coloured drawings.

Always Me,
Anna
