From Instagram.

Shiiiid, I haven’t updated, like, at all this year. :’’D Major art fail. Idek, I have excuses. I’m semi active on Instagram. Like trying to get my art shit together or something.

Seriously last time I posted actively was during last year’s Inktober meanwhile you can see my sorry attempt at this year’s here. xD I did not get very far. Life happens.

ALSO: I finally changed my URL. Wanted to do it for awhile now but wasn’t 100% set on what should I change it for. I’m satisfied now, it’s more me. ;) (Contemplated on using my IG nick, but dunno, Finnish is a bit confusing. I like this better.)

From my Instagram.

Omg guys I did it! I kinda revived it. I almost post semi regularly. Yay! I have other stuff that’s kinda decent but idek if I should post. :’D I draw a lot but my sketchbook is a hot mess. (Still haven’t gone through the old ones. -sigh- I’ll get around to it. One day...)

I know I posted two of them already but shhh it looked nice a 3by3 grid.

Few recent quickies from my current sketchbook so I won’t leave you completely hanging ;)

ey ey ey! Not dead, just lazy.

Hi guys! It’s been over half a year since last posted my sketchbook sketches. :P It feels like forever! I’ve filled two whole sketchbooks since I last posted. (ಠ_ಠ) So much has happened since then. Both style and technique wise. i.e. I discovered mechanical pencils again and my lovely .03 has been seeing some action lately. I honestly haven’t drawn with graphite for over an year. Huh. Think about that. Last half a year was crazy both Uni and free time wise (free time? sold my soul to theater). Thank god for summer. 

BUT! I finally got a camera! Like, an actual real amazing tiny lovely wonderful camera which I love, so (hopefully) no more phone cam photos. (ง •̀_•́)ง (Probs not gonna work out since I like to do quick posts white phone camera. Well well.) I’m gonna try to up my quality here. Maybe I’ll resurrect my instagram and start posting sketch quickies there. :D

Updated my theme. Finally! I’ve been meaning to do it for quite some time. Something was rubbing me wrong with the previous one but I quite like this new. :3

I’m probs gonna sit down with the camera some day and go through the sketchbooks I’ve gone through and see if there’s anything particular worth posting there. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ I’ll try not to clutter your dashes when I get around to it so I’ll try to compress it in compilations and maybe even queue them (gasp!).

ALSO! It’s my b-day today! HAPPY B-DAY to me! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

OMG HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!

I’ve been a lazy bum about posting my sketches even though I’ve gone through like a whole sketchbook since I lasted posted. Whoooops. 

(Lots of anatomy practice sketches tho but still, some good shit. Expect sketchbook dumps in the future when I stop being a lazy bum. I haven’t decided if I’m gonna actually bother to scan them or just snap a quick pic of them as I’ve done in the past. Scanners fucks up the colours sometimes. :/// But also I’m lazy. Idek.)

But anyway! I got a sudden inspiration to draw my bebe Sue, so have her as a consolation for all the shit I haven’t posted yet. :’’D

[emijay]

So I was listening to Undertale medleys from Youtube and I decided I needed to draw some more Undertale doodles.

Mettaton you grew on me. o9

(My drawing music’s today.)

ALSO this is my 100th post! Wohoo!

[emijay]

DAY 31.

I did it! Yay! Pat myself on the shoulder and congratulate on a job well done.

Also belated Halloween everyone! (Cos I didn’t upload this on time. Silly me.)

This month (November) the updates are going to be a lot less frequent because - surprise surprise - I’m not drawing everyday. At least not finished pieces. Doodles maybe. I’m probably going to upload few sketchbook dumps at least, I still have some sketches from September and October I haven’t yet posted. ヾ(＠^∇^＠)ノ

And for everyone who is doing Nanowrimo this month: May the motivation be with you! (And inspirations doesn’t hurt either. Boy do I lack both of those from time to time. You just need to get the ball rolling and the words start coming.) (Bless inktober for establishing some work routine before nano.)

[emijay]

DAY 30.

Guys. I gotta admit. I thought October only had 30 days. Imagine my surprise when I found out it had 31. (At the same time I was like ‘ugh, one more inktober to go’ and ‘hells yes, i don’t have to start writing my nano today cos i have no clue what i’m doing.’)

[emijay]

DAY 29.

I thought about my Nano a bit while drawing this. :) Somehow it fits.

[emijay]

DAY 28.

This might just be one of my favourites. :3

I’ll tell you a secret. I messed up a bit. It looked a bit dumb. I grabbed some glue and voilà! Fixed it! (And gave it a fun effect too.) Never be afraid to mess up. You might end up creating something even more awesome by messing up. Challenge yourself! You’ll learn more from challenging yourself and making mistakes than by playing it safe and doing it the easy way. (My motto on my German exam that was maybe a tad bit too easy for me. So I tried to challenge myself not to write the easiest and most obvious sentences even though I might end up writing them a bit incorrectly. Later I realized that it’s a good advice for other things too.) (ง •̀‿•́)ง

[emijay]

DAY 27.

The amount of effort: minimal. I could feel in my bones how inktober was slowly reaching its end.

[emijay]

DAY 26.

So I was a huge lazy bum when it came to uploading these. Sorry about that. I promise I drew each and every one of them on the corresponding day. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

(Anyhow. Play KF2. It’s da beeeeest.)

[emijay]

One day of Inktober left. (ง •̀_•́)ง I promise I’ve drawn days 26-29 but I’ve just been a huge lazy bum about taking pictures of them because of life and shit. OTL

Random squirrel drawing till I get around uploading the actual Inktober drawings (plus other stuff I’ve doodled.) (Also I noticed that there’s a spider on my wall. brb. gotta deal with this.)

Spider crisis averted. Such an adult I am. 

But anyways,I started a new sketchbook on the 26th! The previous one lasted through 11.08.15 to 27.10.15. So that’s like, what, two and a half months. The one before that was from March to August. And the few before that were 9-10 months. I’ve been slowly shaving the time off. Once upon a time the average life expectancy of a sketch book was about 1,5 years. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

I’ll probably pace down a bit once Inktober is done (and Nanowrimo happens hrrr) but still. It’s kinda fun to look back to the drawings I did year ago and really see how much I’ve learned in a relatively short period of time. And a year ago I drew almost exclusively pencil drawings/sketches. And now I mostly draw with coloured pencils and markers (and sometimes I even paint. Whaaat.) So much has happened in a year. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

I’ll try to keep actively drawing (and posting) shit once Inktober is done. I’m super bad at coming up with things to draw. I am much more motivated when someone suggest something. (◉◡◉)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ I didn’t really have an approach plan for the most of my inktober pieces. I just started drawing and saw what happened. So ideas and suggestions are welcome! I might even get inspired. (•ヮ•)ᕗ

[emijay]

DAY 25.

Minimal effort. But hey, at least I drew. Like... fifteen minutes before midnight. :’)

Family member is in hospital so my mind is kinda somewhere else at the moment. (●︵●) I have an essay due tomorrow but I couldn’t give two fucks about it atm. ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ﾉ Life happens.

One day at the time. ᕕ( ● ‿ ● )ᕗ

[emijay]

DAY 24.

I was gonna be lazy today but suddenly effort. Yay. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ 

[emijay]

DAY 23.

Doodled all kinds of things. Wasn’t really super satisfied with anything so here’s a bunch.
