Applause / Allergy

 Uh... hi. This piece is inspired from Lady Gaga's new single "Applause" / upcoming album "Artpop". So excited! This does not look like Lady Gaga at all! Just made a quick sketch so I could copy the makeup style with watercolor. When I finished this piece I was sooo satisfied with my work. Days later: meh. Hahaha.

I was supposed to upload a different artwork but I threw it away. Why? I'm apparently allergic to chalk and charcoal! My eyes and hands were itchy and I kept on sneezing, ugh. I tried doing another artwork using oil pastels : NOPE. Still allergic (or maybe because of the dust? I used my 10 year old oil pastel set). Oh well~ I miss using my messy art materials. Maybe I should do this everyday so I could relax. Hmm.

Terra

Terra Branford from FF6

An art trade with a friend of mine. She requested Terra from FF6. I used bockingford paper and prang watercolor set for this one. I also used my etude house nail polish for the sparkly areas HAHAHA. Hmmm... still not satisfied with it. I want to retouch the hair some more, create a background, add more details on the details, etc. Sigh. I would always look at the `finished` piece and say "Ah, looks good, pwede na to!" then after a while I would go "wtf is this sh*t!? It must be improved!".

Anyway. Here's Terra on my deviantart
