I've been thinking...I keep looking at art for inspiration, and I really want to do art like the kind that gives me inspiration, and a lot of them, their pictures are really amazing, colorful, and detailed, and they say it took them more than a day to do theirs (somebody even said one of their pictures took them 5 years...O.o)...
I'm not saying I should take longer on my projects, but I'm thinking of putting all my heart and love into one picture. So, in order to do that, I need to dedicate a TON of time in to getting it to have the results I want it to have...
My idea is to make a picture of all my favorite things, but have it combined into one thing, that isn't an eye sore. Of course, y'know, I like a lot of contrasting things, but if I somehow find a balance between it all, then I think it could turn out nice.
My simple version of my idea is to just have two boys (or, a boy and a man...I don't really know) in a semi-realistic style (which is my favorite style) that is kinda like a clash between modern, and victorian, by their clothing, which, of course, will be heavy visual kei. A lot of contrast will be in it, like kote/nagoya kei with oshare kei, and such and such.
How will that be all my favorite things? Well, I'll put a BUNCH of crap all over the floor and different patterns of my favorite things, so it'll probably take me FOREVER to do all that! Not to mention the colors...but unfortunately, I can only use warm colors since the majority of my favorite color schemes have warm colors in them...>.> I like the sepia toned stuff...sooo..Sorry favorite color that isn't neutral, you can't be in it (I'm talking about Mint. Mint is my favorite color! It's also one of my favorite tastes...I guess I could put it in there with mint tea, which is my favorite tea since it make me feel good when I'm sick and it tastes good...and the color of mint tea is kinda like a warm green color).
I even wrote a bunch 'o notes:
Sorry you probably can't read a single thing (even if it was bigger, you still probably couldn't read my handwriting)...what I'm writing is probably not very important, but just some random things I noticed about visual kei, like the details and stuff. Oh! Here's something interesting I realized! The SAY that Visual Kei uses a lot of vivid colors and such and such, but they actually use a lot of dull, warm colors, but they create such a contrast between that and black, or something like that, that it looks much more colorful. I figured this out by taking the essence of the colors (the color palette on the left) that they were wearing, and I found that they weren't really vivid colors after all...
I keep staring at this picture, which is giving me the most inspiration (not the colors, just the style):
I dunno who they are and I rally don't care who they are (nor do I want to know, it'll ruin the fun). It's just all the contrast and originality, it's BEAUTIFUL!!
I's like broken/contrasting things. Which is why I LOVE life! <3 I mean, sure I get mad, and I SAY I hate things, but I know it's just things that have to be. It's human nature to love, hate, and have different emotions. If everything was perfect, if the world didn't have any cracks, then it'll be a dull, boring, and ugly world. So there always needs to be chaos in the world. Sure, people die, and it's sad, but, that's just apart of the endless cycle of life and death. So life is wonderful! <3 (I never actually wish for things to not exist...no matter how much I hate something...O.o)
I need to make a list of things I love...Jpop...hrmm....how would I incorporate that into the picture? Head phones? Hrmmm....I really don't know...
Oh! And about the coloring, I'm gonna try my best to make it look clean and the way I want to...
If I stop drawing this, somebody PLEASE yell at me! I don't care if you're mean (I may get mad, but it'll actually help me). And if post it and I'm not happy about it, then yell at me and tell me to continue working on it!
I'm SURE there will be a time where I will decide not to finish this, start this, or I finish it poorly, even though I remind myself, so I need somebody to yell at me so that I don't lose focus of my goal.
My goal is to make a picture with all my love, and it might help me improve in my art...
It'll probably be my biggest picture I've ever drawn...By big, I don't mean, like "big" as in important, I mean, big as in pixel size....I'm thinking of making it...like...5000 by 5000 pixels large...but that might be too big (but I need it to be big)...
