I realize I'm still not good with lighting, perspective, and drawing more realistic style human.

My sister told me about The Sartorialist, a blog about people.
I picked the one picture of a woman, and try to draw based on it.

And here is the one without out line 

Birthday Card for friend

Yesterday was my friend's birthday. He loves badminton.

And this idea (a bird gives a shuttlecock to him) popped out immediately.. 

The bird make a shuttlecock from his own feathers. 

But no worries, in reality people won't take whole feather or the birds. 

Only from the left wing.

Again, I just exaggerate and being mean.. :P

More sketches....

Sketches

Some sketches I did during class, seminar, and on library

I actually did this in 2010 for my digital drawing class. But it wasn't finished.

So sometimes last month, when I was organized the files in my computer, 

I found this unfinished drawing of my little brother and decided to continue worked on it.

Right below this was the final drawing, and the picture of my little bro

And these pictures below, were the progress.

The first drawing was my unfinished drawing from my class.

Retreat Flyer

My friend was asking me if I could help out, making a flyer for our Catholic Fellowship Group retreat in this coming November. 

I said, "right O!" even though I actually didn't know the theme or everything about this retreat, or  if he has any standard requirement for the flyer.

After I heard the theme, I spent some time thought about what should I draw..

Since I'm not that comfortable at making shapes.. I decided to draw people (the only thing I'm very comfortable in). But again, what should I make them do?

I took a piece of paper, and scribble on it.. After sometimes, I ended up draw the boy, then the girl, a blackboard, and a teacher. Then playing around with the "what should they be doing?" and "what inside the blackboard?"

After I got the fix idea, I headed to computer lab at my school and drew in photoshop for about 2.5 hours.. And this is the result (below).

So, that's the short story of how this drawing born..

My friends were getting married on August, last month. Both, the groom and the bride, are my friends.

The bride, her name is Henny, wanted to give a surprise for her husband during the wedding reception.

The surprise was about things that she likes or dislikes from him (the husband),

but she will love him till they are getting old

It was a thoughtful and sweet surprise.

I just helped her out, made some drawings for the surprise. 

and here are just some of the drawings I made..

Sketches

A bunch of sketches from my sketchbooks.

Most of them were drawn at coffee shop.

Some drew at school, library, and OSU campus area.

"Let's make an Art!!"

I made this sculpture for my beloved sister,  Kartika Mediani
She is an awesome artist and my best friend..

She said she has a monster in her head, that always telling her what to think and do..

That's why I made a sculpture of her with the monster..

In here, my sis gives an angry look toward her monster,  because she paints on my sister's face..

This figurine's height is around 5 inches (around 5.75 inches with base)

I used wire and aluminium foil for the frame, then cover with super sculpey.
Then painted it with acrylic.

It took me around 1.5 months to finish this
(Have to learn to work faster.. >__<)

"It's Tea Time"

This picture is for a good friend of mine..

                                                   She is going back to Japan for good.. :(

And I know she likes to drink tea.. 

So I drew her enjoying the summer time,

by having picnic and drinking tea with our badminton friends..

And use this picture for the front page of her card..

Saw this kid when I was at coffee shop doing my homework.. 

I thought he was pretty cool and kinda mature for his age 

(I guessed he was around 10-12 years of age)

So I decided to draw him.. :)

Enjoy The Nice Weather

I saw this lady walking with her dogs, when I went to Bexley area during my spring break time..
She really caught my attention since her dress matched with her dogs fur..
It was really a nice weather that time, even almost felt like summer already..
Done in photoshop CS4
