The multiple art styles I have created and grown to love.
Click on each photo in the art pages to see which style I used for it.
Style 1: Big eyes, big expressions.
One of my few black and white styles, which I have only recently started exploring. These drawings always have a face in them, and that face is always swirling with many emotions. The deepest well of emotions is held in the eyes of the subject(s). The heads of each character is also always slightly enlarged. The scenes vary from busy to limited, though I try to keep all of the attention on the person. The background is more for context and setting. These are located on “Illustrated Songs”.
Style 2: Simple scenes.
You will notice that in these drawings the person is usually always interacting with their scene. This is my other style that’s in black and white. Most of of them have simpler lines with less complicated things happening around, except for a select few. A minimal sort of style that still expresses immense emotion. This style also focuses less on faces, as some don’t even have any heads facing the viewer. But I find that it’s easy to imagine what these faces may have as their expression. You will find the most of these on the “Illustrated Songs” page.
Style 3: Realistic Cartoons.
These are pretty much as close as I have ever attempted to get anatomically correct. I find it a lot more fun to make things easy and expressive than picture perfect. These drawings usually contain a whole person’s body, and are semi detailed. Sometimes they have shading (which is a rare thing from me), and are always colored with markers or colored pencils. They usually don’t have anything in the background, as they themselves are all that’s needed. You will find these on the “Drawings” page.
Style 4: Abstract Adventure.
These are extremely new, and I may not do much in this style. I don’t know if I like it very much. It’s a little colorless and to me it doesn’t seem like what I’m drawing is very clear. I like people to know what they are looking at. I try too hard to make this style be clear on what it is, that I think it loses some of the potential for greatness. It’s vague colored lines, and not a lot of filling in/shading. I leave a lot empty. Though with the first one I made, I tried to color it in way too much. You will see it in “Drawings”.
Style 5: Old Art Progression.
You get to take a look at the baby lazy cupcake’s art! These are some examples of how my drawings started to develop past just the scribbles of an 8 year old. Don’t worry, I won’t show the ancient ones that look like a 5 year old was let loose with a marker on the walls. We get to take a look at how I didn’t yet understand body proportions, how jittery my lines were, and how shading was an illusive mystery to me (it still is actually…). There are only a few that are even good enough to post here, so what you see is what you get, no more will be coming. Check them out at “Drawings”.
