Kittys Drawings

Hi Everyone!
Hope you’ve all been having a fantastic easter and not gorging on TOO many eggs! Hahahaa kidding, eat away – I can’t deny anyone the right to eat chocolate.
Things in our household have been typically non-traditional. No easter eggs here. I think I’m over chocolate in chocolate form. Unless it’s Koko Black of course. Everything else is too sweet. I am becoming more partial to things like icecream and cakes oh yeh. Yum!

We went to see Clash of the Titans in 3D – which was good. Well….No worse than I was expecting. Which wasn’t much. It wasn’t groundbreaking cinema….but nice for the Sam Worthington factor teehee. I think Avatar kind of ruined 3D movies for me at this point. Set the bar too high. There wasn’t much added to Clash of the Titans by wearing 3D glasses – Alice was the same. It would be more worth it for movies that are made entirely in 3D like that How to Train Your Dragon which is out now – or which use the same technology which Avatar did. So until everyone is making movies like they did with Avatar, I wouldn’t bother paying extra for the 3D screen.
I do like booking online though – No waiting in line with the plebs at Melbourne Central hahahaa.

Been watching a few other films at home. Most notable was The Wrestler – quite depressing but very very well made. Perfect role for Mickey Rourke. Also another surprising one called Pandorum. No idea where I found it but it’s great. A sci-fi flick set on a spaceship heading to a new planet found to possibly contain life, where things go wrong of course – their hyper-sleep schedule is messed up and they wake to a ship overrun by weird creatures. That want to kill them of course. Great tension and quite a few plot twists and a fantastic ending. I was very pleasantly surprised – as much as I love reading sci-fi, the movies can often suck pretty hard.

Well onto the drawing….This is what has been taking up my time – in the same style as the last one….Kind of don’t like it as much. Meh. But it’s okay I suppose

Okay then well I better start thinking of what to draw next. And get some food. Hungry.
Seeyas!

Hi!

Finally I am no longer an apprentice! Thought I better tell you all that. Pretty proud of myself. I’m finally qualified and stuff. Though it will be a little while yet before I get my actual piece of paper.

Anyway – The last couple of days have been pretty busy. I’ve been flat chat at work and when I come home I’ve been playing my DS (my latest review on Cult-of-Pop is Here) – got a bunch of new games which are all so fun I don’t know which to play first. Is anyone else as DS obsessed as I am?
So that is why I have been off the web for a few days – Haven’t even been reading my blogs! *gasp*

Today’s drawing I am much more happy with than the last one. I drew the sketch for this the same time I did the sketch for the last one. It used to have her entire figure in it but I liked the face more so I cropped it down into a portrait. Also tried some new techniques – this time instead of using my usual pastels only, I tried charcoal and coloured pencil. Not natural media of course, but the Corel Painter simulation of these I think these work really nicely together don’t you? The charcoal is soft and textured and the pencil is good for detailing. Will definitely be using them in future drawings

It’s almost the weekend! Yay! I think we shall be going to see Public Enemies, the new Johnny Depp flick this weekend. Can’t wait to see it – Mr Depp is possibly my favourite actor. I’m also a major fan of Robert Downey Jnr and his latest movie, Holmes should be out soonish…So many great films coming out! Eeeep! (can you tell I’m a movie buff?).
