My Dad's Favorite...

My Dad's Favourite...

You won't be able to believe how much my dad loves ice cream. Especially those MacDonald ones. Cheap and nice. In the past, he craves for it and would want to buy one every week. However, having too much ice cream is just not too good for our body. Thus, he reduced quite abit. However, ice cream is always his first choice of dessert. Always like to observe him when  he savors it, like a little boy.

The ice cream is drawn with beige based colors with mixtures of white and cream. Shading at different angles and color to give the swirl of the ice cream. Generally, a vanilla cone, with the biscuit cone brushed using orange brown. More can be done to the biscuit part of the vanilla cone...

Take a Break, a Cup of Coffee...

Take a break, a cup of coffee...

Coffee is like a common drink at home. My mum and dad loves it. I started to learn to savor it too. The aroma and taste. I like mocha more though, because it is not as bitter. In Singapore, we can get coffee from $0.70 to $8 per cup. Different coffee gives a different authenticity. Some from Malaysia, India or America. Regardless, I think all come with uniqueness and deserves a try.:)

The cup is drawn with cool shades of grey with gentle smudging tool. White edges of plate and cup to give a slight reflective ceramic surface. Pretty design of coffee also done with fine smudging tool. I myself like the handle of the cup most, because it is the only part which portrays the 3D edge. However, I think more can be done on the texture of the cup. 

Press on for more updates!

My Sister's Pet...

Gui Gui

This is my sister's pet, called Gui Gui. Wonder why I decided to draw it? This little thing here is not as puny as you imagine it. It has been with my family for more than 10 years and has gone through alot with us. It was picked up from a deserted pool with no water and we decided to keep it and up till now. Its size now is much bigger than an average man's palm.

Cool shading of dirty green to colour the shell of the tortoise, tinted with slight yellow to increase the texture. Lastly, adding in with a touch of red on the neck as well as the eyes. Need more improvement in the proportions. However, I am satisfied much.

Look out for more in the next post...

My Mum...

For, Mum

I drew this for my mum months ago when I heard that she had not received flowers for a long time for Mother's Day. Thus, instead of buying her favorite tulips for her, I decided to draw one and she likes it:) 

It is a mixture of some pastel colours with a range of bright pink of different shades and tone. The hardest part was the petals itself. One of my first few drawings that I am proud of.
