Drawing- Tennis Wall Art

Hi, it's been a long time since I posted my blog. So this is what I call wall art. I tried to make it 3D so it looks more realistic. What helped me to make it look 3D is the shading with the crayon and pencil. As you see, the tennis ball wasn't really shaded or in 3D, but it helps it to make sense since the ball goes with the racket. Over all, I like the way it blends together with the shading, the crayon, and the ball with the racket. The reason why I put color in it is because there's no color in my other drawing posts. Well, post you next time!

Clay-Tennis Ball Necklace

,

Hello, today is a very slow day so I just made this necklace special for the blog today! So as you know, I love tennis so I made a necklace out of clay to show it. The top part of the bead is the part were the string goes. The bottom part is the part that keeps the bead in place. After it was baked you may be surprised to know this but the silver part is actually made out of  a paperclip! If you look really closely you can see that the string is already there. The string is the clear kind that you can use to make necklaces. It's very, very fun to make! Since the paper clip is very hard to bend, I used tweezers to mold it. I hoped you liked this special blog post (even though it's as special as the others). Bye!

Pencil Sketch-Hummingbird

Hello, and welcome to my blog! This is one of my favorite sketches because I like the detail that came out in the photo. Plus, one of the reasons why I drew this hummingbird is because we got a hummingbird feeder. So when ever I see a hummingbird, I'll find out if the hummingbird looks likes this. The hardest part of the hummingbird is the wings and the tail because it has a lot to do with detail, but it's worth it. Hummingbirds are unique because they are so small but fast, and they don't eat seeds or worms, they drink the nectar from flowers. That's why I put these flowers in the drawing. This sketch takes a little longer than you would think because, as I said before, it has a lot of detail in it. Have a good week!

Sewing-Piano Pillow


Welcome to my blog! This is a piano pillow and it's harder to make then it looks. It took me from June to yesterday to finish this. But it's worth it! I made this with white felt, black felt, and black thread. The thread is kind of a soft thread, not like the kind of thread that's thin. You need to have a lot of stuffing because if you don't then the pillow would be flat. That's all for today, have a good week!

Clay-Taylor Swift


Hello, and welcome to my blog. This clay piece is Taylor Swift, but you might mistake it as a ballerina because of the hair and the dress. The penny is there to show the size of it. It may look easy to make but it's really not, because molding the head and dress together is the hardest part. But still, if you want to make it you have to be delicate. So that's all for today, have a good week!

Sewing-Pillow Case

  
Hello and welcome to my blog! So, remember in the tennis post when I mentioned my sewing class? Well this is something I made there. The place is called Cut & Sew Studio. So, I didn't sew the pillow on a pillow form, and I didn't stuff it, but as you see in picture number one, it's a pillow case! This is the first time I used a sewing machine, because Cut & Sew Studio is a place where you learn how to use the sewing machine. Or if you already know how to use one, you can just go there for things you can make because when you make them, they look like they were store bought because they're so awesome when you look at them. Well back to the post. I forgot to take a picture on the back but it's just like any back of a pillow case were you put the pillow in. Have a good week.

Pencil Sketch-Tennis Girl

Welcome to my blog post! Sorry I was late last week, I was taking a sewing class. Today I did a drawing of a tennis girl because I love tennis. It's better if you look at it in person because the computer makes it look too dark in some places. This drawing isn't the hardest to make but it's pretty tricky. If you would want to make it, here's a little trick: make the body tilted and the arm that's on the racket out so it looks like she's leaning in. Be sure to check a new post every other Saturday. Thanks bye.

Sewing-Hippo


Hello, hope you had a good weekend! You're probably wondering why I didn't post last week, but that's because I'm blogging every other Saturday now. So, back to the post. I made this because I used to take ballet, and I also made this so it can remind me of dance when I wasn't there. I used felt, sharpie, small jewels (like my name), this material that is kind of like scales, and lace. Well, that's all I can post about this dancing hippo so have have a good weekend!

Clay-Turtle

Welcome to my blog! I made this turtle out of clay, and the cool part is that I didn't bake it. This turtle was supposed to be a normal turtle, all green and all turtle like but then when I was finished with it, it looked plain. So I made all the other cool stuff on it like the gray cracks, the bump in the middle, and the purple outline. This is really easy to make because it's just a normal turtle and all you have to do to make it unique, is to put crazy stuff on it. Well, my time is done. Have a good week/weekend!

Sewing-Flower

Hello again. As you can see this is a flower I made. The flower is a violet. I copied it off of those bendy flowers that are awesome and I actually did make this one bendy because instead of stuffing, I put wire into the flower's stem! The hardest part was putting the wire in the stem, plus it's so bendy that you can wear it as a bracelet. The only time I used stuffing was for the face and the leaf on the side. The face was made out of fabric marker and the leaf is too. Happy Bird Day!

Pencil Sketch-Mexican Dancer

Welcome to my blog. Sorry I'm late, I was busy yesterday. This is a picture of a Mexican dancer! I think she looks beautiful! Her dress is nice and flows wonderfully!  This drawing is special to me because I never detailed as much as I did with this drawing. I made this with a pencil (HB2) and paper. Bye bye now!

Clay Sculpture-Elephant

Welcome to my post! As you can see, this is an elephant. I made this out of clay. This is is the first time I didn't make a penguin themed sculpture. I made this for my mom for Mother's Day! (it's an early present.) I made this out of grey clay and a toothpick for the eyes and the nostrils, you can't see the nostrils. This is really easy to make. See you next week!

Sewing-Pucca Dolls


Hello my blog followers! These are Pucca dolls. I made these dolls before I had a blog. Pucca used to be a show but it got canceled, but I was thinking about these dolls so I decided to do a post about them this week. The doll on the right is Pucca, and the one on the left is Garu. I made these a year ago and they are really special to me because whenever I used to sew, I'd always make things small but this is the first time I did it big. See you next week!

Music - '151 Ways'

Hello, welcome to my blog. Today I decided to do something new. In my older post with the instruments, I said that I played the piano. So I made a song called '151 Ways'. The reason I why picked '151 Ways' for the title is because there are 151 beats in this song. If you see on the bottom right corner, the date is St. Patrick's Day. That follows up to why I made this song. I was listening to Irish music and I wanted to make an Irish song, but on the piano it's hard to write an Irish song. So I just wrote a regular song. Please feel free to listen below!

Pencil Sketch-Katy Perry


Hello, and welcome to my blog. This picture is of Katy Perry. I really like this picture because she is my favorite singer. I just used a regular pencil, but if your wondering why her  eyelashes are so dark it's because I pressed hard on the paper. That's it for today. Have a good week!

Scratch Art-Portrait


Welcome to my LATE blog post! This is scratch art, I thought it would be neat to do this because it has something to do with drawing. I didn't make this a famous person just a random person. I made this out of a stick and a scratch art book. As you can see, the color under the black is rainbow. Check out my next post, it's going to be the best post yet!

Before and After-Dragon 2

Hello! This is an exciting post and surprising because it's another before and after dragon! This time I didn't change anything except for the dots on the sewing dragon, those are sequins I found when I was making it. You can't see the legs on the the sewing dragon because it's behind the dragon's body. Also, the dragon that I drew has the back legs showing but the front legs are still there, it's just behind the dragon. Sorry if you can't see the eyes, it was hard because the felt that I used was dark. I made this dragon out of  sewing supplies, a gem with holes on the edges for sewing (the gem is on the head), a sharpie and sequins. As always, thank you for reading!

Clay Sculpture-Musical Instruments


Welcome to my blog post! As you can see, this is an instrument post. The instrument on the left is an accordion. In the middle is a keyboard. By the way, me and my sister play this instrument. On the right is a guitar. I made these out of clay but they might not stay up straight. You also might not notice but the keyboard stander is separated from the keyboard itself. I made these for my penguins. Thank you! Have a nice week!

Pencil Sketch-Taylor Swift

Hi, Sorry I'm so late with this weeks post, I was busy. So back to the picture, this is Taylor Swift. This isn't from any albums, just a picture of her that I found. She is really hard to draw, so if you try to draw her you've been warned. But if you want an art challenge, go for it.

Sewing-Turtle


Welcome to my fourth post! This is a turtle that I made and it's kind of hard to make. It is a regular sea turtle, as you can see, and the orange flippers are my 'special' touch. You can't really tell from the picture but the turtle is 7 inches long. If you flip it over, the middle is white like the head. The reason why I made a turtle is because turtles are my favorite animals.

Clay Sculpture-Penguins


Hi! As you see, this is my third post! I got the idea for this artwork from Club Penguin, which is my favorite online game. The green penguin with the hat is Aunt Arctic, the pink penguin is Candace, and the things on the bottom are puffles. Aunt Arctic is the penguin you go to if you need any advice. Candace is the penguin pop star! Last but not least the puffles, they are the pets. I made this with baking clay and some tools for the puffles mouths and eyes. See you next week!

Pencil Sketch-Tangled

 Welcome to my second post! This picture is about Rapunzel from the movie "Tangled" in the scene when she finally sees the lanterns. As you see, the picture has most of the characters like Flynn Rider, Maximus, Rapunzel, and Pascal. I made this using a regular pencil and paper, which I love to do. It's really easy. It took me three days to finish  because I wanted to draw the details. See you next Saturday.

Before and After-Dragon

Hi, welcome to my blog! This is a before and after photo. The top photo is the one that I drew to sew the actual dragon in the bottom photo. As you see, the picture of the dragon has fur. That's because I didn't know how to sew on fur. You might see the colors are different but other then that it's the same. I hope you enjoyed my first blog post. I will be using this to show you my many creations.
