			<![CDATA[<img src="https://forum.melonland.net/gallery/thumb_2776-928-IMG3463.jpeg" border="0" align="left" alt="" title="" />Hello melonland!! Been a while again lol, I don’t come here all too often because I’m pretty shy, but I’ve also been pretty socially fatigued all year too which has made being social very hard. I’ve also been a bit burnt out I think, creatively speaking. I just haven’t found it in me recently to create or want to do anything it seems? Idk, regardless though, I have an art course to complete and this piece was created for a part of my final major project, this isn’t the final piece itself, more like an accompanying piece. 

My chosen theme was “glimpses” but I took it to mean a glimpse into the past, or specifically into childhood and early artistic development, as I find that old art and art you create as a child is very much a glimpse into the person you once were. So for my pieces I’ve tried to use materials and themes relating to childhood, or even just art mediums I used to use alot as a kid, such as crayons, coloured pencils, stickers and coloured pen. This piece itself is based on a memory I had as a child, of spotting a fox at the back of my old home late in the evening. It’s a memory that means a lot to me bc of how fascinated I felt seeing wildlife like that so close, that and it was the first time I’d seen a fox in person before.

Well that’s the general idea of the piece anyway lol, mostly wanted to create this to experiment with collage and stuff. Materials I used were stickers, washi tape, acrylic brush markers ( for the fox and bushes), crayons and a green coloured pen. The white highlights were added digitally in procreate to make all the elements stand out better. Lastly the title is some lyrics from “pools” by glass animals bc they used to make really good music once upon a time.]]>

Hopefully this will spare my black Crayola twistable some more.

Plus purple and yellow are a nice color combo! I coulda gone with velvet red like with my website, but gotta make his fit stand out!]]>

			<![CDATA[<img src="https://forum.melonland.net/gallery/thumb_2566-147-drawingwithoutsketching.jpeg" border="0" align="left" alt="" title="" />Like the title said, I was trying to make a little drawing without making a sketch first. I do this from time to time because I have to focus more and I think it&#39;s a nice practice. I don&#39;t usually try to make them perfect, just having fun! :dive:]]>
