Forgotten Stuff but not forgotten!

Howdy all!

I've been neglecting this blog a lil lately since the launch of my website www.khanart.com. Since I have my blog attached to the site now I forgot to post schtuff here!

Well here's some stuff I've done in the past month or so to share!

First!... a revamp of my website portfolio. I've been working on a layout for a while but since im not tech savvy with all the new ways to make a website.. with this alien called wordpress and css.. i had my friend Nhathy help me out with the technical stuff. And it turned into this! 

Here is a shot of a work in progress of what i'm currently trying to work on/ finish.  I'm messing with an idea for the background and have some base colors laid out.

 

 I did this sketch of an idea of a style for some more Sailor Moon fanart i plan on doing..! All on a post it.

And here's a sneek peek at some thumbnail sketches from my sketchbook for the Sailor Scouts fanart i plan on doing!

 Sketch of the day's from last week that i did not post!

 

(Aww its a sketch of my husbandface!)

Soo that's what u missed folks! Er... what I forgot to post here! Hope you like!

Sketch of the Day

It's been some time since my last post. I've been quite the busy bee the past month with attending comic con, starting on some personal projects and trying to get them to the finish line, and redesigning my website! So getting back into that sketch mode has been slow lol. But i have to get back to it so here's my sketch of the day!

10 min sketches

Sometimes i get a block while doing some work, and I've been doing this new thing where i take 10 min to sketch something, anything, really. It's definitely been helping with getting back that spark to draw more!

2013 Plans/ Resolutions

Yeah Yeah.... I'm.. 3 weeks late writing this post lol. But better now than never! Right?


I've been wanting to get into putting myself out there, for some time now. But bc of a lot of family obligations, etc, It's been hard to put my focus into my own development as an artist. But no longer is that an excuse anymore! I'm too late to sign up for exhibiting at any conventions at the moment, but i do want to create a load of content and kick ass art in the coming year and beyond that. I want to get into painting traditionally more, just everything I can do to develop on my own and get better. 2013 and beyond to me is all about just getting better. So what to do now? Sketch Sketch Sketch! I'll be continuing on trying to do a sketch a day. Over the year's i've messed with a lot of different styles all bc its part of the job. Versatility is something I've gotten good at, but with that I've also felt like i've lost my identity, and can't pinpoint a specific style of what my artwork is. Maybe with enough sketching I'll find that this year :P

Sooo breakdown of my plan lol

-Draw and sketch more, one a night at least
-Paint (traditionally or digitally) a completed image every 2 weeks
-Find my artist style/ identity in the process
-Work on a few big personal projects
-Put myself out there more in order to get critiques, exposure, and to purposely make it a habit to post either on my blog, fb, or instagram.

Aaand thats pretty much it lol.

Non artwise i wanna eat cleaner and healthier and workout more just to be in better shape :P


Here are some stuff I'm currently working on!

Lately I've been feeling a bit of nostalgia And decided I wanted to draw things that had great influence on my art and drawings growing up. I forgot how much i loved the character Blink from X-Men and how Joe Mad's style was a huge influence on me when i got into comic books. I decided to do some fanart of her. I'm pretty excited for this one! Can't wait to finish it and do some more of this type of stuffs!

Sketchessss

It's been a while since I've posted anything after APE!

I took the time to relax a bit and take a break cuz i was pretty burnt out, plus doing art at work lately has been nuts so my focus shifted to that. Here are some sketches I did the past week:

Poison Ivy

Princess Jasmine

I was in a crazy Princess Jasmine drawing mode the past 2 weeks so there are more sketches to come later. I wanted to be her for Halloween but didnt have the time to create a costume :( so sad.

Upon just randomly sketching yesterday i decided i wanted to draw Poison Ivy. I've decided to do some more fanart to practice my painting skills anyway.
