After with Photoshop and Bamboo splash 5th attempt. 

With this; it is an improvement upon my work, however, I still need much more refinement...and more textures. I could have spent more time and consideration upon the execution of this work. But in making this work I feel that I've learned a lot with the decisions I've made in this drawing. 

Original Characters

This work is based on a character in a book that I've written her name is April Kattina; an alien worrier that mimics the human form and adapts. With Bamboo Splash I've taken an old drawing from one or two years ago, and added a new spin upon it.

However, with perspective and some anatomical errors and inconsistencies; it is good practice with Bamboo Splash and Photoshop and only want to get better with practice and learning. 

White Flower;  Niome looked stunning and made everyone else look ordinary or dim. She had jet black hair with a white sheen and streaks to it and she had big bright hazel eyes and her features were truly beautiful. 'Nia' Niome Lang;

With this piece called; 'White Flower' illustrates another one of my characters from the very same book that I wrote and completed. Her name is Niome Lang. However, this character has recently been changed, her original name was Nia Mustang. I used hints of blue in her hair and hints of red in her eyes to illustrate the old character's features from previous drafts. Nia had bright blue hair and blood red eyes whereas Niome has black hair with white and hazel eyes. Using the new character as a base, I've hinted the old character Nia within the new character.  I used the white blossom for the background because her white light is accompanied by the blossoms.

Demon Cat; A character I created named Keita Lee; confident and caring, she leads you to light despite the darkness fallowing her. Another original character; Keita Lee; half demon half human. Much inspired this character such as Inu-Yasha with the demon dogs and Inu-Yasha being a half demon/half human. Also, Egyptian make-up and the golden streaks in her hair also attribute to the inspiration for this character.

This character is inspired by one of my friends from a long time ago. I created her by referencing photos of my friend and inspiration elsewhere with her character. It doesn't look like her...but has the likeness my friend had. She carries a certain optimism my friend had. 

Restarting

While using Bamboo Splash...I created this art piece based on one of my characters I created in my teen years. He has the power to control lightning as does everyone on his planet. Using this new product...I start completely over with my skillset as it seems. However, it's a lot faster to improve on. Much practice is needed. 

Much more refinement is needed however, a decent first start on this hopeful love of this new product and how it can make my art work better in the long run. 

Letters

Photoshop letters are quite easy to do depending on your creativity and imagination.

Figure Drawing

  This is a reference that I used with other heavy referencing to create my works and will continue using references until I am able and confident enough to do it without references.

    These are drawings, practicing figure drawing using heavy referencing in doing so. The top is figures drawn with references without a certain space that corresponds with each. The bottom uses space each individualized between the figures.

    Though I used references I have a lot to learn when it comes to figure drawing. There are many inconsistencies within all of my attempts. However, I will continue to improve and get better with continuous practice. Especially this summer.
