"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
This it the background for a line art I did back in October. I decided to try out a red sun this time. Might play around with the lighting a bit later, but who knows. I do wonder if this port city gets snow at all, seeing as it is called Warm.

It’s about to get even colder where I live so I wanted to paint something to reflect that. Looking at some references I remembered a painting I made back in 2021 that I wanted to eventually get back to and give it another try. So I decided to RE:do my Airi painting of her in a jacket. I also decided to try out a couple of new brushes aside from the sargent brush. I’m glad I did so because some of them fought me less when I was spreading paint and mixing. My plan is to continue practicing until I understand them better. This time around I was also more confident in giving her mitts a try.

I saw this beautiful photo of a lantern lighting up a tree and snow that I wanted to try and paint. Perhaps in the future I might use it as a background but who knows.

This will be the background for a future painting. There are certain details that I have yet to add. I also haven’t started painting the actual subjects but I do have a general idea of what I want. Hopefully it works out.

I want to paint some winter and seasonal art, but due to being a bit busy I was a bit flustered as to starting something new. Specially since I wanted to upload a background or rough draft today. That’s when I remembered that I had a couple of drawing that I made for Inktober that I could use. Looking at the selection I decided to use Rin’s drawing. For some reason it was a slow start but eventually got into the rhythm. I decided to look up Rin’s scooter and tent in the anime and noticed very apparent differences. this time I decided to correct them once and for all. There are still a few details that I haven’t done yet for the background, but the overall feel is there. This is what I will be working with.
Here is the original line art;

Since we have entered December I will start working on some winter paintings. So I want to speed up the final Autumn painting this year. Here is the background.

I had to do a composite of two locations for this background. I’m always glad that Google street view exists.

For today’s drawing it is Frenda… her friendship with Saten was really fun and cute. Shame what happened after…

This should be the last prompt that I will follow. In this case “jumbo”. For some reason I remembered the Ohmu from Nausicaa which is great because it became the perfect subject. It was also a nice change from drawing humans (or human-like beings).

For today’s upload it is the background for a painting that is currently in progress.
Tomorrow is October which means that Inktober will also be in effect. Hopefully I can draw on all days again this year. Hopefully I will be able to paint on top of that as well.

There is an illustrator by the name of fjsmu (ふじしむ) that uses some beautiful colors for his paintings. I wanted to give it a try. I believe it uses the concept of color theory. It really makes it pop. I will try to keep this in mind for future paintings.

Due to certain circumstances I’m falling a bit behind have art ready to be uploaded. But hopefully things get better soon. This painting I decided to work on today after I was done with other obligations.
This background is actually a RE:do of an old painted I made years ago. I think it looks much better now.
Hasta la proxima,
