I started having journals 3 years ago. One of them was a bullet journal that acts like a planner, habit tracker, and random note-taking pages. I also have other notebooks that have different purposes such

Another way of practicing painting is to copy other artworks and study them. This way, you'll be able to go through the artist's steps, learn how they mix paint, and think about what their composition

This is the 2nd work for the series that I'm working on (which I don't have a name yet). The first one was Just Five More Minutes. This was the study that I did for this. I really love the crimson and

Ever since graduating art school, I didn't really have a lot of activity in the traditional art world. I learned about the blockchain shortly right after that and that's where all my activity went. In

Aside from my sketchbook for film scenes, I also have a separate sketchbook for scenes from cartoons. I love cartoons (a lot of them from Cartoon Network lol) and they are a great source of learning if

When I did the bed rot paintings on my sketchbook, I knew I had to paint them on canvas. And so I did. :D Painting Study The first one I did was the one with the most exciting color for me: ultramarine

After I painted these little studies, I liked them so much that I want to paint them on a bigger canvas. I've been putting off painting on canvas and spent so much time doing studies on my sketchbooks

Previously, I focused more on painting shapes. This time, the focus is more on brushstrokes . I didn't have any plans on what a batch of paintings would be for the day but looking at them altogether, they

After painting portraits from film scenes, I figured it would be interesting to make a self portrait with the current knowledge that I have with colors. I can say I have come a long way and I have become

While doom scrolling on the bed, I had a genius idea of painting myself bed rotting lol. I like paintings about solitude, especially one that involves drapery either in clothes or blankets - so I want

Continuing my figure and color studies, I looked for a movie with scenes that have a lot of people in them. I found this movie Tomboy that fits what I needed. I want to paint this one loosely, with colors

For today, I want to focus on painting figures and contrast without needing to paint a lot of faces. Since [some] countries are making war trendy again, I picked a scene from a war movie. Can you guess

After using film scenes as references for my studies, I realized I really like doing it because I love a good film composition. For this one, I want to paint something that is mostly close to my interest

For this part, it's mostly going to be blocks of paint. They're very shaped-focused instead of the usual brushstroke-focused. I was using the big brush a lot, so that was mainly the reason. :D This one

Here's another set of color studies I've made recently. I really admire abstract painters and how they are able to put emotions in their paintings with just colors and random forms. Painting without a

A really good way to study colors is to observe films. I love films as well and I myself had a lil bit of training with screenwriting so whenever I watch films, I always observe how they present colors

I've been doing quite a lot of color studies lately, which means mindfully observing other artists' works, paying attention to films and animations, and most importantly practice them myself. I have different

The Red Shoes Acrylic on canvas 61x91cm I recently got new shoes. One of them is a Dr. Martens Mary Janes in a cherry red color and while I was wearing it to try, it made me feel inspired and an idea popped

One of the ways to learn something is to observe and look at other people's work. In my case, other artists' works. It is a strength that I realized - that I can easily learn something by just paying attention

One of the mediums that we have tried in art school is gouache, which we used sort of like an intro to paints. I remember I really liked using it cos it felt like an acrylic but like an oil at the same
