I have a little...favor? Request? Random question for a stranger? To ask.
Egyptian Vultures seem right up your ally in style, lol, and I'm trying to draw me one. Soooo while I'm not saying "SHOW ME HOW U WUD DRAW IT", I know you're very good with anatomy of...well, all things, really, so any points on the head? Beak? General birdness?

You can become intelligent when you gather and learn a lot of information, but it will turn useless unless you make proper use of it. Become wise by making the correct decisions.
Don't be useless, be wise.
I think I'm going to go on a fav and watch rape. It's just all so great.
Definitely my kind of stuff. <3

Once upon a time in the town of gay...
. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Hey, you wouldnt hit a dude with a vagina would you?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
also, what inspires you to draw and paint, is it a process of "free ...like draw and see what becomes of the image, or do you have a special thing or subject that really inspires you.?
You work is so fluid, i love it, very really see that even in grad. level works...very nice. do you like using brushes, or ink pens better. as a fellow art student supplies are so expensive, do you use tube acrylics or what ever is cost friendly?
i really love your work. sincerely, it amazes me every time you post stuff...
haha..cheers.
and thank you!

"I am Just an Earth Bound Mystic.. who " Fell in Love with the Sky."
I haven't used plastic paper before but I'm always willing to try new stuff. I do have the canvas board which can be used for watercolour, acrylic, oil and various mixed media.
I tend to practice on the sketchpaper before using the heavy duty stuff since the sketch paper is limited in its ability to take a lot of water. It tends to be good practice.
Mediums I usually use are pencils, micron pens, acrylic and shellac based inks, watercolours (Koi is a good brand) colour pencils, markers.
I tend to draw whatever comes to mind or if I think of something I'll gather several references together and work on that idea. In order to get the subject just right I might draw out the pose several times on sketchpaper which gets me familiar with the form. I lean towards unusual creatures for subject matter and work to understand the anatomy of the subject before moving on to stylizing it... which is why I'm always bent on 'realism first' it's what art schools will look for, how you render what you see onto paper.
Ehehe I've yet to pay for my own art supplies but when my mom and I go to the art store, high quality supplies that are costly are purchased once or twice at a time, such as the acrylic and shellac inks. These tend to be around $5-6. A nice set of basic acrylics can be around $20-30. For sumi ink $5 is what I spent when I stopped at a Japanese grocery coming home from school (now that I can drive
Brushes.... they are what you pay for. I've seen nice sable watercolour brushes for over $100, and some smaller ones for $55. A good sized brush for covering a lot of area w/o spending that much would be an M. Grumbacher brush for about $20. It's a large white synthetic hair brush that handles very well. Make sure to buy cleaning solution for your brushes. I have a solution for my makeup brushes that works on the paint brushes too.
For smaller detail brushes I'd suggest both a short hair and long hair brush. These are around $5 and up, but some of the very smallest hair brushes are about a dollar or so. A nifty brush I got at the art store is the angle brush, which appears broken but really helps if you want to reach tight areas in the painting and don't want to smear anything.
The larger round brushes are what you want, especially synthetic hair since they last a while longer. Natural hair brushes work just as well too, especially the sumi brushes.
I hope this helps a little ^^' I'm no professional but I do love giving advice on art
Have fun!
