How I started to draw anime/manga

Hi everyone. As you can tell this is my first blog post and first blog. I hope you guys enjoys this post as well many others to come.

 I think the rest of the society thinks how most people get into drawing cartoons/anime are the anime/cartoon shows. But for me it's different, how I got into drawing anime was that a friend of mine in grade 5 used to draw anime like Pokemon. I got inspired by and tried to draw by wasn't good like her's was, and she never really say good job or whatever. So I tried harder and harder just to get her approval. I know stupid right?  After then I moved schools so that kind of erased from my mind. But then I also learned looking at a picture. I know it's not good to do that but it was a start.

Then after drawing a lot of my own bad drawings I then started watch anime. I think anime shows got me more inspired to draw. But back then all I could do was copying from the computer. Later on like most artists I got better and better. I still some what struggle with making making my own drawings, but slowly I will improve. This is why I'm in a course called CyberARTS, it will help me strengthen in the arts and technology I do know and improve and learn in the things I don't. I also thank you for reading this because this is my first post and my first blog so I hope to make many more post to come.

Photography Photoshop Scavenger Hunt

Image
Note: That all of the photos I used a little bit of photoshop to them for the lighting mostly. Also some of these photos were taken by my two friends Cam  and  Angelina   and I'm sorry for the hightlight thing I don't know how to fix it so please bare with me on this. Artwork: Balance Symmetrical Definition: When side has more proportion then the other. Why I chose this photo: I chose this photo because I knew that I could photoshop it to make it more creepy and dark. Artwork: Depth Linear Perspective   Definition: When two parallel lines at a point in the distance of the artwork. The inter secting point is called the "Vanishing Point". Why I chose this photo:  In the picture you can see that the walls and the lines of the floor tiles become smaller, and the distance shrinks as the picture goes further. The door is a noticeable  vanishing point, where everything ends there.  Artwork: Leadi...

Video Commentary

Over the weekend I watched a video/documentary about logo design. So I just wanted to give a little talk/commentary about the video and what felt guring the video and what I feel about it now. To give a summary of this video, the videowas about this logo designer and he was sent a logo challenge to make a logo challenage that's not to modern but still make the logo look cool. So he was going through the steps of logo design with also talking briefly about typography. What I thought of the video is that for logo design their are many steps to it and their is going to be failures along the way. That's why logo designers take so much time perfecting their work. For instance the first step would be write what needs to be in the logo. Then you sketch little rough drafts to see what the logo should looks like. Personally I don't think that I would take time on a logo, so i guess that logo design is not for me. But people do this for their job and get paid for doing a good jo...

Pinterest Image Critique

Description: I found this aboriginal artwork that is called Setting Sun by Marianne Nicolson. The art is shown by a sun set picture on the wall and then a projection of some aboriginal figures on top of it. The lines in the projected figures are thick but curvy with many shapes like circles, triangles and rectangles. The colours she used in the art is the sun set being warm colours and then black and some shades of grey over top. Analysis: I feel that there's no focal point in the art, but if there were, it would be the sun set picture. The balance used in this artwork is asymmetrical because of the projections has different lines on each projection/figures. To me it’s a kind of hard to find where the light comes from. But looking the artwork, the projector would have the most light on the artwork. Plus all colours in the artwork have pretty dark colours in it. Then the darkest part of the artwork would be the edges where there is no light going on the wall. Int...
