When you give an art student free reign over a giant pin board, it gets out of hand. 📝👩🏼🎨👨🏻🎨📌📌📌🖍✏️🐼🐮🐘🐄
“A la vuelta de la esquina, la luna celestial de cada día”
HELLO GANG!
I love them they are so sweet☹️
Good song, GOODMORNING GUYS!
Like phases of the moon, I change the way I see the world. Sometimes it's too much yellow, all bright and beautiful and like the scenes from a ballroom.
And sometimes it's a tired white. With no life left in me to fight. I can feel the sighs of the earth. We share our tears, and I feel safe in her arms.
Every now and then it's green. Fresh and alive, looking like a newly bloomed daffodil. It brings back memories of past summers. A carefree world with a golden undertone.
I also see red sometimes. Like the scream of a banshee and the pain in their eyes. It reminds me of my first heartbreak. Drunk and hurting with heavy eyes, but a heavier heart.
But today all I see is grey. Like the monotonous susurration of the rain, it's killing me slowly, burying me alive. Seeping into me like I am a sponge.
This is why I hate gloomy rainy days.
It feels like I am half dead, but half alive.
I don't know where to belong.
....................................................................................................
The sky keeps pouring outside.
But all that my eyes see are worlds within each drop.
Each one looks so transparent and fragile.
And as they race each other against my window,
I silently cheer for the one that's slow.
Because I know how it feels to be last.
And because I know there's still a chance.
Who knows, maybe when the night becomes alight,
I'll stop seeing the world in blue.
Maybe when the stars come out and paint the sky,
the colours in my head will mix and blend.
And when they do so, I'll wait by the seashore.
Brush in my hand and music on my lips.
Holding my breath, in the fading sunlight.
Susurrations of my heart grows louder,
as I watch the sky being adorned in a soft pink.

I made a thing
Anyone wanna color it for me I’m lazyyyyy/silly
A World-Renowned Art Dealer’s Private Collection
Drawing at my Friend’s desk again!
Reference: was a piece called RINIS VANDEVELDE by Frederik Heyman in his 2018 series titled DUST #13 - WE HAVE NO FATHERS
His website if you’re interested! ->
Also put it up to the window and it looked kinda sick

It is not the prettiest but here is a little chart I made of skin tones.
The idea is to eye-drop anywhere on the chart to get a unique skin tone instead of getting stuck in the loop of “white, tan, dark”.
Edit in 2021! Due to some (very valid) critique, I just wanted to slap a little edit on this to let people know I’m keeping it up and pinned to avoid being asked where it is on the daily, but very much encourage people to check out other skin tone references. I’m keeping it pinned so it’s easy to find! I appreciate so much the positive feedback this thing has gotten, but more than that, I appreciate the conversations it has sparked and the negative feedback that has come with it, inspiring more people to diversify their art! For better references please check out this really amazing twitter post!
Again this is my personal take on color! It really depends on the situation and what you personally value, and in the end practice is your best friend.

Wonder Woman and Marvel
I thought he had one on John Wick too but I can’t find it. If you like saturated colors though, check that movie out!!
those are only a couple of exterior references, there’s lots out there!! so good luck & I hope this helped!!
Bloom where you are planted!🌻🌱🌾
Happy new year everyone!😊
I hope this year is full of surprises, adventures, fun, and peace! Last year was a roller coaster ride for all of us. We faced so many challenges, ups and downs but remember it made us stronger and stronger each day. This year make sure you do what you wanted to do, go where you wanted to go, read what you wanted to read. Lets make this year a memorable one!😊
