I was the fan one. Just wanted to let ya know!
Thanks for all the messages guys xD it kept me amused for a while. Time to get back to work.
What should I draw?
I've literally got nothing... I keep drawing Bendy and Sammy Lawrence over and over again. I really need some ideas.
More practice with that app I mentioned before.
This was mainly done so I could mess around with an app on my tablet.
Love your drawings! Look forward to what you will come up with in the future :)
Thank you! Hopefully I'll have some little sketches to post tomorrow or something.
I seriously need to play this game.
I'm going to be drawing a lot of this in the near future. I've lost my inspiration.
When they talk about the tortured genius, somebody always brings up Van Gogh— how he swallowed yellow paint because he wanted to put the sunshine inside himself. How his psychosis was probably the result of lead poisoning. They call him a miracle, but what I see is a man who was so sad, he found a beautiful way to kill himself. They say, “it’s awful isn’t it?” They say, “It’s always the talented ones who go before their time.” And me, a nine year old kid who’s always been told they were so talented wonders when I am going to die. We study them in school, the tortured artists. Look at all the poets who killed themselves what would their work have been without their depression? It’s it beautiful, isn’t it sad? As if depression is a parlor trick— pull it out at parties, impress all your friends. As if depression isn’t seeing how long you can go between showers before somebody notices or pizza rolls for dinner three nights in a row and then nothing the night after, because going to the store is an impossibility that you have not yet gathered the courage to conquer. It is the least beautiful thing I’ve ever seen and we call it the mark of an artist to stand in the center of an ocean and see nothing but desert. To be seated at a feast, but still swallowing sand. Depression is the yellow paint, the yellow paint, THE YELLOW PAINT, THE YELLOW PAINT, THE YELLOW PAINT, THE YELLOW PAINT, THE YELLOW PAINT, THE YELLOW PAINT, THE YELLOW PAINT— Art is a coping mechanism. Van Gogh is good because when he had nothing, he had paint. When he was empty, he had paint. When the world was awful, he had paint. When he hated himself, he didn’t hate the paint. He whitewashed over his own masterpieces, because it was never about being famous, it was about doing the one thing that made sense when everything else didn’t. And they say, “without his illness, we never would have gotten all—this.” because they value his art more than his sanity because god forbid you lead a happy life and leave nothing to remember you by.

I did three of these but only recorded the last one. Having fun visiting my brother in Virginia
I made a card for my brother's birthday and I'm happy with it. Got mom's seal of approval as well.
Does this look like Jack Frost from Rise of the Guardians to anyone else. Because that really wasn't what I was going for.
Thanks for being such an amazing author!
Sure hope I can be sneaky enough to check my phone tomorrow. I'll be in school when you draw the winner.
I hope so too! I’m super excited. I wish I had enough copies to give one to everyone, though.
Thank you for being such a supportive reader, I really appreciate you, @sinisterlaugher!
I loved this story so much!
Drawing for a bound copy of ‘He Knows He Needs to Stop’
Let’s do this! If you would like a chance to have a printed and bound copy of ‘He Knows He Needs to Stop’ please like or reblog this post. I will be drawing the winner on Wednesday, April 19.
I’m currently designing a dust jacket, so the actual book will arrive in 2-3 weeks. If you don’t have tumblr and would like to enter, please email me at pdowning at zandalee dot com.
Thank you all for being beautiful, marvelous, and perfect.
First completed drawing of April 2017
Today my brother got promoted to Sgt and I couldn't be prouder. Of the three saluting, he is the one closest to the person that took the pictures. I love my big brother very much and I wish I could see him more often instead of just on holidays.
Left hand vs right(dominate) hand art challenge
I've been working on this for a few weeks now and I'm still not done. I've lost all motivation to finish it or even draw some original art. Help me!!
First two pics: the failure of an attempt to make an m&m themed cake. Last pic: my actual birthday cake that we used for the little party.
Always seem to have bad luck on my birthdays.
Both cakes were made by my mom. I really love all she has done for me and how she’s listened to my crazy requests.
And I really needed some cheering up...
*Sits on couch and reads something else while waiting patiently*
I can wait.
No ‘Thwarted’ this Monday
Hello everyone. This chapter is turning out to be trickier than I’d expected. I just realized I forgot a key scene and it changes most everything so I need to extensively re-write it. Sadly, I won’t get that finished in time. I’ll try to post it on Thursday, but next Monday for sure.
Thank you for understanding and I’m very sorry.
Early birthday evening at the movies...
My mom and I just got home from seeing Beauty and the Beast. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! WAS TOTALLY WORTH ENDURING A HEADACHE FOR!!
Today is the only day you can share this meme. Precisely 2000 years prior to March 6th 4017. The day Squidward trapped himself in the freezer. March 6th 2017.
There’s three main groups: the flexors and extensors each take one half of the forearm, and the ridge muscles sit on top like a little tiara. Each group has it’s own unique form. Learning their anatomy will help you design awesomely dynamic arms.
Let’s try to make forearms manageable to draw. This is a body part most artists don’t quite understand. It can be real intimidating if you don’t know the muscles.
The arm has a simple chain design and the forms interlock down the arm.
To avoid the snowman effect, use straight, angular lines and look for asymmetries. Compare the apex of both sides of the forearm to understand the curvature better. Notice that the flexors reach lower on the wrist than the extensors and ridge muscles.
Look for this kind of thing when you’re drawing the gesture of the muscle groups. A wave rhythm where the curve on one side leads into the next curve on the other side.
I’ll explain more in-depth in the video - www.proko.com/179
WIP I feel like I'm actually doing better on this one than the last one. Still have a long way to go though.
When you wake up earlier than you want to and can't turn on the light to read or something. Drawn on Snapchat.
I just got done binge watching Voltron: Legendary Defender on Netflix and now I have no idea what to do with my life.
Give me ideas!!
I have no idea what to draw at the moment so if anyone has an idea or a request, send me an ask. And I could also use the practice. So help an artist out? Please?
WIP Currently working on another grid drawing for art class. This time it's a pic of my older brother and his daughter.
