For this year's required art class, I choose to start working in graphite and charcoals, something had had little to no good experience with. However, after a semester of this and some YouTube videos teaching me how to blend, I've finally become pretty good at working with those mediums. Curious to see what else I... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Party Lights
This painting was inspired by the YouTuber Ahmad Art. I think I did this one around the end of 9th grade, which makes it one of my later paintings. However, it isn't my favorite painting for three reasons. The first reason is the lights. For a first attempt, they look fine, though I could've done... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Traveler’s Lamp.
This is an original painting created by me. I had learned how to draw and paint lamps with light in them the week before and decided to incorporate that in this painting as the main piece. I really like how the light looks and how it seems to bounce off the pole holding the lamp,... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Foggy Lake
This painting was inspired by the YouTuber Ahmad Art and is one of my later paintings. It didn't take very long to create and though it looks like a harder painting to accomplish, it was actually a pretty short process. If I could change one thing about how it looks, I would change the reflections... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Watercolor Wolf
This was done for a school project several months ago and was the first semi-realistic animal painting I had ever done. It took a total of 4 hours to paint, including the time it took to trace the wolf onto the paper. While I like it as it is, if there was one thing I... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Tropical Sunset
This was a take on a painting that my uncle had done several years ago with watercolor that I decided to try to make better. The original painting was done using a wet-on-dry technique that was reminiscent of acrylic painting, which my uncle was more familiar with. That meant the original had a lot of... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: A Melty Forest (Inspired by Makoccino)
I tried with this one. Really, I did, but unfortunately a combination of not using a chunky enough sponge and my impatience led to the paint blending together in a way that makes it look like the trees are melting together. When I did get to adding the leaves, the paint had already tried and... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Foggy Ship
This painting was done in watercolor and I believe it was based off of a painting by the YouTuber Ahmad Art. While this definitely isn't my best painting, it is one of my favorites mostly because of the clouds. One of the fun things about watercolors is the fact that when using the wet-on-wet technique,...

Fairy in a Tree in Watercolor and Acrylic
Here's the first try that was done in watercolor. As you can see, it was not my best work and many of the colors unfortunately blended into each other. The acrylic version came out much better. While the sky is a bit streaky, I kind-of enjoy it since it looks like strange, fantasy clouds. The... Continue Reading →
Art Gallery: Portraits of Percy Jackson in Acrylic and Watercolor
Acrylic version: These were the first portraits I ever did (though the original art is not mine; it belongs to Viria. These are just my renditions of it.) As you can see, the first try was done with watercolor, though at the time, I didn't really understand that watercolor was a much different medium than... Continue Reading →
