Tutorials and Computer Troubles

So I was all excited over my tutorial being mostly completed in a few hours.  Then, the blue screen of death happened! Fortunately, none of my files were lost; but I need to take my laptop to Staples tomorrow because the system restores failed.  Hopefully it's nothing major, and money won't be leaving my pockets in large amounts.  It's like, you make money; something dire happens; need to spend the money you worked so hard to earn; and you're back in the poor house again.  It's frustrating, really.  Everything costs so much, yet the paychecks aren't enough to compensate for the high price of things.  Where's the balance? No wonder people struggle!

In case I do need a new laptop, I'm backing up every file on this thing.  Can't afford to lose all my photos, music, and art.  It's my life; it's everything that's inside of me.  To lose it all would be depressing! Backup is taking a while, but it's halfway there.  As long as it doesn't take until midnight or after, I'm happy.

 Now, to watch more Super Carlin Brothers!

Speed Paint: Eye

Sketched a glittery eye....probably took about ten minutes.  I still got it!!

Understanding Light Source

In this tutorial, I briefly cover understanding light source.  It was discussed quickly in my previous video on drawing shapes, but this is a little more in-depth.  I will address light source in future videos, so for now, enjoy!

Have to postpone!

I have to postpone my current tutorial! Activities for this past week have been very demanding and distracting, and getting anything done on the video just didn't happen.  We'll see what tomorrow brings!

Next week's tutorial!

Next week I will be focusing on understanding light source in drawing.  Keep an eye on this blog and my Youtube channel for updates every other Tuesday!

Graphite Sketching - Basic Shapes

New tutorial on my Youtube channel! This time, I cover sketching basic shapes and simple 3D techniques to give dimension to flat surfaces.  Enjoy!

New tutorial!

Working on a new tutorial this week! The topic will be more in-depth graphite sketching.  I feel there's so much one can do with graphite, that covering it in one video just isn't enough.  See you on Tuesday!
