i hate my scanner

So, the scanner only scanned part of Bowie. But, most of you have seen Bowie IRL, so this doesn't affect you much. It still bugs me, though.
Anyway here's a Bowie:

Man I love David Bowie! (platonically of course)

COLORS

I just finished drawing a picture of David Bowie (that I will post tomorrow), and I realized something; I can't use COLOR.

I mean, I know how the primaries and the secondaries and the color theory stuff works. But, everytime I try to use a wide array of colors it looks like gook. Especially when I try to do bright, neon-y stuff. It's like I always just end up choosing colors that look awful together. Then, I'll try to fix it by panicking and adding more colors, AAAND it's a downward spiral from there.

This is probably why I stick to only using monochromatic schemes, and the primaries (never secondaries, I think they are gross together).

On a somewhat relevant note, Jesus I hate contrasting colors with a passion. Why do we ALWAYS use that scheme in art class? If we did nothing but primaries all year, I would be SO CONTENT. Heck, why do we even get assigned color schemes in art class? I WANT TO DO WHAT I WANT /whine. But, some people just don't get them, I guess. Just like they don't get contour lines. Dear God someone get me out of my art class pleeeaasseee


PS: I totally used primaries on David Bowie

cover

Welp guys, I finished the cover for SPOOK!


It's the only thing that's going to be in color, so I went all-out. All-out LIKE A MANIAC.

SPOOK is almost complete, by the way. All that's left it Marley's advice column, Kathleen's mystery picture, and some technical nonsense. ARE YOU EXCITED? I am. This is exciting.

Boo!

why why why

So, I've decided to start a series of watercolours. Watercolours of ghostly schoolgirls. Many of you saw the first one (and refer to her as Nubs, sending me into a blind frothing rage (PS: I promise not to call you K-fed anymore, Katelyn, lmao)).

Anyway, when I drew that one, it was like; "Oh yeah, pencil to paper, bam bam look at that".

Then tonight, I started on another, and it's like, "HOW DO I ANATOMY????"

NOTHING LOOKS RIGHT! It's all disproportioned, or awkwardly angled, or WROONNNGGG!!! I hate it. Feel my seething frustration.

Tomorrow I will try to draw them again, after I have calmed down. Hrrrhhggnnnhhgdffkdgld;h

Please enjoy this lame and poorly draw depiction of my day so far!

Now I'm going to go do productive things. Namely, homework.

a house!

Please enjoy this drawing of an old house!

I kinda ended up "squishing" it in my drawing, oops. I still like it though.

Also, you may have noticed that I also drew this house in my sketchbook. All I can say is; I really like this house.

Kay bye!
