1 min read

Hello guys!


IDK if any of you would still be interested, but I'm going to livestream on picarto.tv today.



Livestream starts at: GMT 8pm 


Link: picarto.tv/leda456



I'm gonna be working on a commission which is still just a rough sketch, and it's a drawing of a dinosaur family.

(I'll probably work on it for a couple of hours, but since i will also record the process - so i can make a speedpaint video of it -
I might turn my mic on and talk in case anyone asks anything in chat cuz it would be annoying having to wait for me to text back,
and cuz those parts out of the video too)

Still alive YAY

4 min read
Hello everybody, long time no see...
I hope you have a few minutes to waste on me, because I would like to say a few things.
In case you care but got no time, read only the bold parts :3

First of all, even though I have been completely absent since forever, I noticed today that the number of my watchers somehow had reached over 3300,
and this number seems to be growing. 
I have no idea what you people are doing here still, but

THAK YOU so SO very much for liking and appreciating my art, and for showing it to me by watching, commenting, and favoriting them!

I hope it does not sound empty when I say I am super grateful, and very happy to see all these. If i could, i would go give a hug to all of you.

Also thank you very veery much for everygbody who wished me a happy birthday, it was indeeed very happy :3


And i would like to mention my newest watchers here, too, Thank you for watching and commenting, even though you probably noticed that i have not been around lately.
------------
There are a few reasons to why i am so dead here. Mostly, the lack of time...
------------
A few weeks ago, I got accepted to an art university, and before that i had been practicing, and getting ready for the application exams.
Since university started i have not been able to come online on here, or draw anything at all, since it got super busy and hectic all of a sudden.
This is my first time on DA since i got accepted actually. 

For this reason, I will have to close commissions too. I knew art university would be tough, it requires the "full person" if that makes sense. It takes all my time, and we have so many tasks,
that whenever i have a little free time, i don't really want to draw anymore, since thats what i do, that is what im obligated to do 24/7.

Now, don't get me wrog, i'm happy that i got to attend this university, and I want to be good, and do all my tasks properly.
It is not being too rough, I can keep up with it, and it's not too much, simply, i don't want to feel burnt out, or too exhausted, so whenever i can, i put the pencil down, so i wont start hating it.
---------------
Besides all these, I have started a new hobby, which i also have no time for, at all XD I record videogames and edit short videos of the recorded footage, but im a complete beginner at it,
therefore it takes a LOT of time, and i nearly never have time for it, but when i do, i love doing it instead of drawing all the time. 

------------------

However, I do work a lot for university, we have a lot of projects going on at the same time (over 10 projects right now)
and even though I can not draw and post anything similar to what i used to upload here, I would like to ask this question: 


Would any of you be interested in seeing my university projects? It would include everything, from WIP pics to finished stuff too.

You would see a lot of self portaits first, since one of our biggest projects is to draw self portaits in 8-10 different styles :D 

Please let me know how you feel about this, or if you are interested, If I find that people would like to see it, I will start uploading art here again, that i do for university.

That's all for now, tthank you very much for reading it, Have a nice rest of the day X3

Questions by Trigger-Sweety-Bunny for me:


1) Let's go first with the classic favorites: Favorite Food or Snack, Pet, Color and Music Genre?
Favorite food: Beef stew
Favorite snack: IDK
Favorite pet: I love them all~
Favorite color: Blue, green, purple, pink, black, lots of colors :3
Favorite music genre: Modern Classical. Let me leave a couple of links here, in case you would like to hear how epic it can be: (I was lucky to be there on these concerts and see these live on stage Heart)
 

2) Any artist you admire? Which one?
Lots of the of course, though I'm not sure if it's about artists only from DA, or it can be from anywhere.
So this time I will say 
Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, italian painter, was active at the end of the 16th and the beginning of the 17th century.
His paintings have a special atmosphere, strong light-shadow/brightness-darkness contrast, spectacular lights, and flawless human anatomy and poses. Truly admirable.

3) If you are an artist, tablet, mouse or pencil? If you don't use any of these, which are your all time favorite tools?
I don't know if I am. Nowadays, the word "artist" is ruined by those, who believe that a one color painted canvas is just as great of an art as the Mona Lisa.
There's no need anymore for realistic paintings, since we have photography, and filmography. Therefore, artists started to make unusual art pieces, that could not be done by a camera.
But the most of this modern art turned into this tragedy, where art no longer requiers talent, and where art is not what is on your canvas, but the way how you can sell nothing for as much money as possible.
However, talent finds a new way to show itself to the world, but since it's no longer needed in the old/traditional way (in art galleries, and such), it satisfies the needs of the newer generations in the pop culture,
and appears in, for example, movies and video games, giving a complex, combined artistic experience, showing off the values of art, story writing, music, acting, and much more.
I'm sorry for rambling, I could talk about the negative examples of modern art forever. But if you are reading this, my dear watcher, feel free to tell your opinion about it, I'm curious.
Keep in mind however, that I'm not saying, every modern art is bad, no, I'm simply saying, that I see many examples, where talent disappeared from art, which makes me sad.
But the point is, even if I'm not an artist, I still would like to do something with my talent. This is why I'm here, on DA :3
I prefer both tablet and pencil, and every other kinds of traditional techniques too, but mouse, not really.

4) What inspired your username?
Originally the number plate of my first car, but I made a typo in it, and now it's really close to my IRL name hehe ^w^

5) If you are an artist, do you draw as a hobby, or do you want to take your creations to a proffessional level and make it your career?
  (not only drawing, also could be writing or any other form of art) Or Do you prefer it as a hobby?
Again, am I? XD Jokes aside, I have already made this my career, I've been working as a professinal artist, and I still get my income from making art, however, it never stopped being my hobby.

6) What inspired you to create? Where do you find your inspiration and will to draw,write,etc..?
It's an interesting question, because to be honest, I can't tell examples of what inspires me. Everything in the whole world in a way, but nothing at the same time.
By this, i mean, I'm always inspired to draw more, or make more art, just by myself, I don't have to wait for something to inspire me. 
You guys see that the drawings I post here are inspired by FNAF mostly, but otherwise, I "can't" find inspiration, because it's always in me, always a lot more than I could ever use, I could never run out of it.


7) Are you more active during day or night? What do you do most of your time when you are active?
I'm definitely not a morning person, but it depends on my mood, sometimes I can be very active any time, and sometimes, there is nothing on the whole world that could make me do something.

8) Have you ever thought about meeting people over the world?
Yes I have, not only thought, but already met with someone from DA, from another country, and i do plan to meet with all my friends some day :3

9) Any character you have gotten attached to or love a lot?
Fictional character? None. I like reality more.

10) All time favorite series? (can be any movie, tv series, cartoon, anime or books)
A sitcom called "Married... with Children "

11) Horoscope sign and do you think you match your sign?
Libra, and I never read or look up what it says, because I used to do it sometimes, and it was either never accurate, or could have been told about literally anyone on this world, so I'm not sure if I match with it XD

12) Spiritual Animal Totem and why you consider said animal fits you the most?
My spiritual animal is a chair... But a certain bird fits me the most ;3 Heart

13) What is your biggest dream for the future? Do you think you can make it come true? Whatever it is, I am rooting for you to not leave it just as a dream ^^
  So good luck on it, I wish for you the best regards Hug 
I kinda want to say it's private, and I have other dreams in my life too, but... X3 Seeing gold94chica in real life HeartHeartHeart
And of course, I definitely believe it can come true eventually :3 Thank you very much X3 Hug



Now i think it's time for me to tag people, so here they are:

:iconnigthmarewolf: and :iconmirage-epoque:

And since i think xXUsashikaJackarooXx 's questions were great, let's say these are my questions too. 


Thank you if you read it all, I hope you enjoyed reading it ^w^

Hi everybody!

Before the facts, I would like to say, sorry for all the late replies and comments,
I haven't been around here lately, because I had to take care of several IRL things, 
but I'm doing great, and I will do my best to be here from now, or at least check on here more often. 
Thanks to all of you, who are still watching me, I appreciate it a lot, and soon I will post a longer journal,
in which I will explain why I was away from DA for so long to those who would like to know, and also some new artworks.
But first, I wanted to start with something short and quick to read, so I chose to do this 13 tags, I hope you will enjoy reading it.

Big thanks to my title manager for the amazing title :)
She helped me even tho i asked for a title in the last minute. I'm sure it's not easy to figure out a title in such a short time...


I got tagged by :iconodrios: a really long time ago, and now that i got out of sickness, and i feel a lot better, i would like to do it quickly.
So, these were Odrios 's questions for me:


1. what is the best thing what happened in the last 2 years?
  • So many wonderful things happened to me in the last 2 years, but of course, the best one... Well, every moment i spent with gold94chica Heart Heart Heart 
2. what brought you to DA?
3 do you like it to let somebody else decide for you?
  • Not at all. I make my decisions. 
4. hard life or boring life?
  • You mean, if i could choose one, which one i would want? Of course hard life. I don't want to be bored all the time, and i like to fight for everything, to feel like i actually deserve it. So hard life.
5. do you have somebody special in your life?
  • Yes i have. Guess who...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
6. what is the meaning of life (serious question)?
  • Life does not have a meaning on it's own. Therefore there's no point to try to find it. Instead, go and give a meaning to your own life. With other words, the meaning of life is to give it a meaning.  
7. have you ever thought about an carrer as REAL artist?
  • Well i... I already work as a real artist.... So yes, i definitely thought about it XD
8. would you prever digital or classical art?
  • Both. 
9. did you ever raged so much that you destroyed something?
  • Yes i did. 
10. do you like me XD?
  • Haha, yes of course bro :D
11. are those questions boring?
  • No, actually these questions are pretty good i think.
12. have you ever done something against the law and didnt regret it?
  • Yes, i stole a dog. No regrets. Long story...
13. do you wanna met an famous star?
  • Yes, i would love to meet VY Canis Majoris, the biggest knows start in our Universe. 


Let's say that my questions are the same, and i would like to tag some people now:



Sorry that i made you read some random things about me again,i tried to keep it short this time,
and it took me like 30 minutes to make.
 I hope you like it.
