I’ve Been Meaning To Share This Work Of My Characters Crystal And Astra For Quite Some Time. These

Here’s my #TopNine on Instagram this year! A few of my favorites are here, including my mandala drawing in the middle and the preview of my comic in the upper left (the most liked!). Thank you my friends and the community for your support! I hope to make more great art next year. 😊 🔹 #art #instaart #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #artwork #originalartwork #creative #draw #drawing #sketch #sketchbook #pen #pencil #inking #digitalart #character #characterdesign #comic #comicart #traditionalart #illustration #digitalpainting #TopNine2018 #BestNine2018 #instaartist #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artist #CrystaltheCC https://www.instagram.com/p/BsCaF3Uhhvj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j8ntc8uo2kit

I was reminded of this Halloween-themed challenge I made for myself 5 years ago and thought I’d attempt it again last minute. I’ll be drawing my OCs in Halloween outfits for (hopefully) the whole month. I would’ve posted this sooner but I’ve been feeling kinda icky lately (prob just the weather affecting me again) and like I said I thought of this last minute. If you use my prompt list, please use the hashtag #crystal_OAC2020 so I can see what you guys make. And feel free to tackle the prompts in any order you like. Enjoy~ 😊🍂🍁 🎃 https://www.instagram.com/p/CF3ZV2cDIbF/?igshid=14kn2a040jk91

Here's a WIP of what I've been working on this past week for my Illustration class. 🔷 This assignment is another collage, using very detailed life drawings from a specific book. I've taken images that I liked, collaged them together, photocopied them, then used a special marker to transfer the images on to Bristol paper. (Looks like magic, no? 😆) 🔷 I haven't drawn anything yet, but I plan to later. I haven't been feeling that great, so I think I'll go get some more rest. Hope you enjoy!

Theme 7 is Memory and the sketch is a redrawing of a redrawing. I guess you could say that it's also a memory of a memory. 😆⠀ 🔹⠀ I decided to revisit a drawing in my sketchbook that was done earlier this year. I redrew a drawing of mine for a class project (because I was fond of it) and looking back on it now, I wasn't happy with how the guy's face came out when I first drew it. So I redrew his face, added some more heartwarming elements, and next, I'm going to add more ink to make it pop. 😊🎄⠀

OAC Day 8: Ivy the Witch! 😊🧙🏽🧹🎃⁠ I’ve been feeling like drawing witches so I wanted to make this my last prompt for October. Swipe ➡️ to see a previous iteration of this theme. 🔹 https://www.instagram.com/p/CHeOYfmDx_l/?igshid=1cdkagdldwwvn

We're a quarter of the way into the Fall semester and October is just around the corner! 😱 I've been busy, working on a few art projects, but I got in some quick sketches here and there. Hope you enjoy! More artwork to come soon. 😊🍁⠀

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! 😊 💎 ✨

My OC Jasper making his best scary face. He’s normally more human looking, but since he can morph into a dragon he’s using his powers to his advantage. 🔹 #art #instaart #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #artwork #ink #inked #sketchbook #traditionalart #traditionalartwork #sketch #draw #inktober #inktober2018 #halloween #inkpen #drawing #artoftheday #originalartwork #originalcharacter #instaartist #illustrator #sketch #penandink #pendrawing #instadraw #artist #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #CrystaltheCC https://www.instagram.com/p/BpAdMUwBnGP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1reozq6s2nb3f
