Yeah! Expressions are difficult,,, I’m always worried I’m making them wonky so I don’t extend too much out,,

SpecterTheGreat · 7/27/2020 11:07 am

I know right

I make mouths too small tbh in hopes that I won't make them overly big.

Why are adults so hard to draw ._. they all look like young people or teenagers.

oh my gosh that's such a mood

SpecterTheGreat · 7/27/2020 11:02 pm

Perhaps it's because we (I?) are more used to drawing teenagers or young adults.
Even drawing children is kinda hard for me hahaha

Oh and my parents said they got me new coloring pencils!!! They haven't told me how many they've got me, or exactly which brand (though I asked for regular, generic ones as long as they're good quality) since it's supposed to be a surprise so OwO
I'll finally have a decent normal yellow color!
I'm hoping they brought a sketchbook too but I daren't ask xD

At the moment, the priority in art 'work' is one I have to do for Galaxian.
