Suck it, learning curve

I did it. I bought markers. And I never thought I'd say this, but I'm already addicted. I only bought a small set of neutral gray Copics, but I love them. I will most definitely be in the market for more. Or all of them. There are over 350 colors...and they're about $6 a marker. It didn't take me long to get acquainted, but I still need some practice. Anyway, here is my FIRST piece of Copic art.

Granted, I did borrow (NO, I didn't trace) the pose from a book. I needed SOMETHING to practice my coloring on.

Just sketchin'

Bleh. So my trip to the Renaissance Festival was cancelled. I'm pretty sad that I won't be able to make it this year. That was the only thing I had to look forward to for my Spring Break. Meh. I guess saving some money is a plus...except that I used that money to buy myself a small set of Copic markers. They're pretty expensive, but completely worth it.

Sigh. Back to work on Tuesday. Until then, I guess I'll draw/read/sleep unless I decide to leave my house to interact with...people.

Anyway, here's a sketch I did today when I was at my sister's house. Trying to work on making people look more realistic...I'm going to go read myself to sleep now -_-
