Description

this is Calur's oc, michelle. this pic was supposed to be a birthday gift, but it's so late after her birthday that by now it's just an early birthday gift for the next birthday. ^__^UUU look at this, this is the comment where i said i would draw her a gift: comments.deviantart.com/4/2814… i rarely draw gifts for people anymore but i didn't want to stop altogether, so i chose to draw something for calur. she is soooo nice ^__^ you should go watch her because her art is awesome and i like the fact that she does traditional art.

as you can see in the comment, i was originally going to draw a sketch only. well you know me, i'm late with everything. a lot of time passed, and then i decided that to make up for my lateness, i would draw a colored pic instead of a sketch. besides, i wanted to add more colored pics to my gallery, because i have a tendency to be lazy and do sketches instead of colored work.

i began making this in 2015 and then went long periods of time without working on it. the date on the pic says it was finished in may but actually that's when i was almost finished... several days later, i decided to add a little more to the picture. and now it's finally on da. it's so weird... i'm used to this pic not being finished. it's a strange feeling that this is actually up on da now. XD



i wanted to make this pic colorful because the name "Calur" is similar to "color." the scanner didn't really do well handling all the colors. the purple and orange petals had multiple other colors scribbled on top of them and you can't really see that well now. but on the green petals you can see it...!?! and there are other places where the scanner messed up the color. then i had to digitally correct it and it was impossible! so now the colors look so hilarious. but at least they're bright, which is what i wanted.

this pic doesn't make sense anyway. she's not sitting on anything, just floating. the flower petals aren't coming out of her hands, they are in the background. and the coloring was experimental. i was trying to do a lot of things here to see what it would look like. for materials, i tried using (acrylic) paint a whole lot, plus markers and colored pencils and dip pens with colored ink!! but yeah, paint. paint is fun. it's also messy. i love using paint because the results are hard for me to control! (why do i love that??)


sketch version: sachi-pon.tumblr.com/post/1457…  i decided to make this sketch version special. normally i digitally remove some of the extra lines in my sketch versions to make them look neater. this time, i didn't do that. all i did was edit the brightness and contrast as always. but in this one, you can see partially erased pencil lines. (in case you're curious about how many mistakes i usually make in my sketches. XD )

also, i have a WIP: twitter.com/sachiprecious/stat…


:star::star::star: look, i made a journal where you can advertise commissions, patreon, or other donations!!!!! fave the journal if you want to advertise:

advertise commissions/donations HERE!!!!i know i have disappeared from da for a long time. (explanation: http://sta.sh/01p0wh8a5pm3 ) i'm sorry for that. but i want to do more than say "i'm sorry"... i want to do something that actually helps the da community.
and i just want to say that commissioning artists is VERY important. not only that, but donating to their crowdfunding projects, giving them positive feedback on their art, and promoting them on social media. why is all this stuff important? because, people really need it. if you make art and no one is there to encourage you or pay you or help you in any way, you might end up slowing down the rate at which you make art, and canceling/abandoning art you would have made. artists definitely need to feel passion from within themselves. that's an absolute necessity. you can't go without it. but at the same time, having other people help out is a big deal. an artist first needs to feel passion from within, and next, they need to receive attention from other people.
