Sketching. #sketch #myartes #drawing (Taken with instagram)
My name is Amanda. I live in Tallahassee, Florida in the United States.
Sometimes I draw things. Sometimes I post things that are not as funny as I thought they were. Mostly I just reblog Carl Sagan related gibberish. Also, banjos are cool.
Prepare for randomness and geekery.
"MY ARTES"
THINGS I MADE AKA MINE
DOCTOR WHO
CARL SAGAN
trolls are trolling this tumblr.
I normally don’t work this fast. I tend to deliberate for ages on an idea before I consider it finished. I spent about an hour and a half on this and it is purely digital. This is a concept piece for story I am working on getting out of my head and onto paper.
This is Rhegan, the protagonist. She has some wild hair and an unfortunate situation.

TrainAudio Engineer Dustin on the ones and twos.
David Tennant has one of the weirdest, most fun faces to draw. But it is a damn challenge.First, I traced (OH THE HORROR) a picture of David Tennant (furthest right)
Then I tried to learn from it! (this is basically the only thing that legitimizes tracing)
Shit I learned:
it is difficult to extrapolate what a face will look like at 3/4 if you have only examined the side.
David Tennant’s hair is made of miracles and wonder.
His lips follow that same weird pattern (from the side at least) of very straight, very small upper lip, and big pouty lower lip that Benedict Cumberbatch’s lips follow, but their noses are different, and Ben has no chin.
That skinny little neck is thicker than I had previously thought, but it’s fun to caricature him with a pencil neck because of that teenage-boy Adam’s apple.

Arg! Some days you should just know when to put down the pencil and walk away. I’ve been itching to draw all day. I thought about it all day at work. I found all my references I was going to use, read some great tutorials and downloaded some textures and brush sets for Photoshop. But the muses are totally fucking with me. Everything just looks like shit, and I can’t feel the idea in my head anymore.
Time to fold some laundry, drink some beer and watch some Cosmos till I am suitable to lift a pencil again.
I am feeling a bit absurd and sketchy. First 3 suggestions in my ask box, I shall draw. The funnier the better.
