Taichi lovebirds

yay, we have a new doo­dle. This art­work was drawn as a gift for some­one and fea­tures the cou­ple from “The Mas­ter of Tai Chi”. I always found some dif­fi­culty draw­ing car­toons of real life peo­ple, but it’s always sat­is­fy­ing when there’s a strik­ing resem­blance in the end =) I went for the sketchy, water-​​colour-​​painted look. It took about 3–4 hours to get together, but it was fun.

The will to do it

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? I apol­o­gise for the lack of doo­dles for the past 2 months or so. Since my last entry, not long after I started the “Study Anatomy Daily Chal­lenge”- I started work­ing (graphic design) 4 days a week, 9 to 5. I get home each day about 6.30-7pm, have din­ner, sit down and it’ll be almost be 8pm. Tired from the day’s work, I just want to relax. I have to hop back in bed by 11pm to give myself 8 hrs of good sleep to pre­pare for the next work day. Some nights are spent out for din­ners, out­tings, birth­days– there’s just a gen­eral lack of time to be inspired and moti­vated to draw some­thing decent. This is a shame though, since I know I want to get bet­ter at it, yet I’m just not mak­ing the time to do it.

Last night I attempted to make a doo­dle, and I must say my skills have really dete­ri­o­rated. I’m so rusty! Fear not though… I do intend to get myself up to scratch some­time in the near future =)

Until then, I guess I’ll have to find the will inside me to do it. Thanks for read­ing, I hope to post some­thing up soon.
