Theme 4 On Friendship Is Complete! 😊 I Like How This Piece Has A Subliminal Yin-yang Quality To It;

I’ve moved out of my apartment and back home with my family. I’m gonna miss my little peace of heaven, my home away from home. Here’s some assorted pics of quarantine college apt life. Last pic is a The Last of Us Part 2 Ellie outfit I put together for fun. 😷🔫🏹✌🏼 (at Oxford North) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDIbShSHZr4GLiNtVkLp5-KtX9CoZlUTKh8pNQ0/?igshid=1xz546dkyu1lw

Going for a somewhat abstract background on this one and I’m pleased with the results. 😊 Maybe I should do this more often?

Here’s my #ArtvsArtist collages! I’m sure you’re wondering why there’s two of them. Well, the first one showcases my best work from late 2017, and the second one shows my best work from this year, along with some sneak peeks at art I haven’t posted yet. 😅 Here’s to more art-making next year! 😊 🔹⠀ #art #instaart #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #artwork #originalartwork #creative #draw #drawing #sketch #sketchbook #pen #pencil #inking #digitalart #character #characterdesign #comic #comicart #traditionalart #illustration #digitalpainting #ArtvsArtist2018 #ArtvsArtist2017 #instaartist #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artist #CrystaltheCC https://www.instagram.com/p/BsFGpWuBmpo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3g0fetup7qd

I'm finished with Theme # 1 Name! 😊 Took me quite a bit longer than my target goal, but what can I say? Life happens. 🔷 Here's where I tell you a bit about the scene. When I first made the list of themes, I picked "Name" as the first theme because it stood out to me; I thought it would be a great starting point for the project as it would give me a chance to introduce myself and what's in the name. The name itself being Crystal; short for Crystal-the-CC being my artist alias. I came up with this name a few years ago when I was making a DeviantArt account, and because I've really liked the name Crystal (for as long as I can remember), it's just stuck with me. 🔷 Since the time I started creating characters, I named my first one (on the right) after the obvious, Crystal, simply because I liked the name. The character on the left is also named similarly, but more so because the character is my fursona, or my animal personification. As for the object in the middle, it IS a crystal; the thing which I've named myself and 2 OCs after. 🔷 In retrospect, I think I've always had an affinity for crystals and precious gemstones, but didn't realize it until more recent years. I still like the name today. I can't see myself having any other artist alias other than Crystal-the-CC, as I think it very much fits me and what I like to do the most: create creatures. 🔷 Aside, I thought I'd share my old drawing of this theme as well. Looking at it and my new one side-by-side just astonishes me. I don't know what else to say other than that I'm very happy with the improvements that have been made thus far. 🔷 I hope you guys enjoy what I have to share! There will be many more of these to come (99 more to be exact) so stay tuned! 😊 💎 ✨

I finished up painting my birdhouse yesterday for the upcoming BirdUP! Art Show this Saturday. I had been working on it for a while now... I wasn’t sure what I was going for, but I stopped when I thought it was enough. I guess that’s how abstract work goes? Either way, I hope you enjoy. 😊 Be sure to come on out and see our work! The art show is the 12th from 4pm to 9pm at the C.A.C.t.T.U.S. art gallery in Downtown Long Beach. Feel free to message me if you need help finding its location.

I’ve seen many iterations of yin yang characters and I tried making a pair; They turned out to be a sun god and moon goddess. And tbh I didn’t finish the second one because the face looked so good, I was afraid of messing it up. 😅 Enjoy~

Hey everyone! So with ECCC not happening, and life coming at me fast, here are some ways you can help me out! Thank you so much for all your support!!
