Description So I was chatting to a friend earlier today [yesterday now I guess whoops] and somehow the topic of art pieces came up? And I was all like "Yeah, I have all these random pieces lying around, but, eeeeeeh, I dunno, with their quality if they should be uploaded?" Pretty much, they said that the pieces were probably fine, and that I gotta chill my grill. I mean, I don't have as much time as I would otherwise like, so I guess I gotta be less picky in what I'm chucking up here?
So here I am, chilling my grill. xD

Uh, this is from a week or so ago, but I've always been amazed by how well some artists can express emotion. So it was pretty much just expression practice. Thus all the focus on the face, and the not-focus on everything else. I am so sorry Trill, why do I always use you for my experiments. D: And what happened to your shoulders aaaa
Again, experimenting with my style. A more recent piece I'll upload in a few days is more "classic" if you're missing my lazy lines of thickness.
Still far too busy with study and volunteer hours. Hopefully I'll find some more scribbly time soon. ^^

As always, thanks for the support, Squidmo!

HOW CAN YOU DRAW SO WELL REALISTICALLY IT MAKES ME CRY UGH
I really do love that mixture of a realistic face with that crazy stylised hair ;v;
I think everyone has that one guinea pig character that they use for all their tests and experiments XD

xD You flatter me; but I did used to dabble in realism a lot when I was short, so maybe that has an influence? D: It's quite fun to learn, honestly; just look at a reference picture and see what happens.
#CrazyHairIsGoodForLazyMista ; I mean, I remember drawing all these lines for hair, a few years back. Takes so loong man. D:
I think I've developed a new character that might be good for experimentation, too. But still. Poor Trill. xD No need for her to look so unhappy about it though. D:

Ah I guess that would help! You've definitely retained your realism knowledge clearly, usually if I don't use something for a couple of years or so I forget how to use it :') Eg after threeish years of playing keyboard, I left it for a long time and now I can only remember one song and I still can't sight-read sheet music ;0; I always had a lot of difficulty with that xD
Aw I know D: I play around a lot with drawing and colouring hair so I have a few different styles to go with depending on how I'm feeling usually lazy ;v;
Ooh you'll need to show us them! I do still love seeing Trill though, so I won't complain if she shows up for more experiments xD

Indeed it is! Looks kinda painful for poor Trill, too. D: Emotions like that can be destructive though, so, it would hurt either way, I guess. D:

Yes, you're right. Emotions can be very powerful.

Quite nice. The lines and the colours give an intense sort of look to them. I would say something about the porportions, but someone already did.

Oh, thankyou so very much! Been experimenting with linework and colour usage a lot, lately. 'tis fun.

And welcome to deviantart, by the by: I really hope you enjoy your time here! ^^

That is an amazing screaming expression! The proportions are pretty much spot on. The colors really bring out the rage that are released in a scream. For a practice piece, it is very excellent.

Oh, thankyou so much! I used to dabble in realism a lot, so it's awesome to know I haven't entirely lost the knack. ^.^
Expressions are ridiculously fun to try, though. I really wanna expand my horisons in terms of drawing emotion, so it's really awesome you think this piece reflects some of that!
