Pick an animal, any animal
Tuesday January 23, 2007
I want to design a new look for this blog, but I am stuck in the middle of a creative block and an urge to not use the computer. Lol.
I want to do an illustration of an animal this time (hopefully I’ll actually end up doing this – I’m notorious for wanting to do things and never getting them done), but I can’t think of an animal to “draw”.
So I thought… can you help me pick an animal? It doesn’t have to be cute or anything, just something to give me inspiration =)
Hmm… I smell smoke on the air. It must be the smoke from the fires towards the central coast (Smoke and ire – that’s the summer in the big city). I feel sorry for all those people who had to commute from the central coast into the city. There would have been a lot of sitting in the car and not moving. The article says that for one person it took 2 hours to move 3 kilometres. Yucky =(

An animal? I’d say a white tiger. They are definitely my favorite animal… so so elegant and majestic.

Hmm well there is quite a few animals out there. Maybe pick something endangered like a panda or a ocean turtle – and give it your spotlight :) I hope you get to it eventually.

Smoke in the air is the worst. I drive by a factory on the way to school and they burn rubber or something and it reaks. I’d say for an animal go for a snow leopard. Fits the season and they’re adorable!!

Suggest an animal to draw? Hmmm… everyone does cats, dogs… and all those commen, cutesy animals… been done.
OK, let’s narrow it down this way… Think of an animal that you think you’re like THE MOST. Characteristics.
... then it’s sort of more meaningful, huh… kinda representative of your spirit, so to speak. Hehehe.

Animal? Tiger or lion. I love drawing both animals, especially tigers because of the stripes. They make great subjects, but are time consuming if you draw the fur really textured. It turns out great in the end, though, especially if its a pencil drawing.
Anddd. Your current layout is so pretty! I love the gradient :D I had a gradient sort of style for my last website layout, but no more! Haha, I just updated with a new layout today is proud

Heh I know what you mean, I want to make something but yet I don’t. Hmm as for an animal, you could always make up your own :D LIke something that looks animalish but is of your own creation :D
