Welcome to twenty-four hour period 8 of my 30 Day Drawing Claiming, drawing my favorite blithe character. My favorite animated character I really drew yesterday which was Baloo, I just seriously never go sick of the Blank Necessities…haha. Then for today, I decided that my animated character would be i from a recent movie (2009) that I vicious in love with the very first time I saw information technology. The first time I saw this movie was at camp in 2009 and I cried my eyes out inside the first 15 minutes. And then now yous hopefully know what moving-picture show I am talking about, which is Disney/Pixar's movie UP. My favorite grapheme from Upwardly is Carl Fredricksen, who is voiced by the actor Edward Asner. I recollect I fell in love with him the nearly considering in some ways he reminds me of my own grandfather when I was a kid. Plus the dearest story of him staying and so true to his wife is absolutely beautiful, to keep and fulfill their dream of Paradise Falls.

Day 8: Then for today, I decided to look towards a tutorial on how to describe Carl. I also took some pictures of the process, which include the guidelines and so darkening in the project with a darker pencil. I then proceeded to use my archival pen (which I think I need to explain what the archival pen is, since I received a question on this yesterday) and so color it in with colored pencils. So archival pens are great to utilize in art (and scrapbooking) for many reasons, but I dear that they don't fade and are resistant to water, which is why I use them in watercolor projects besides.

This is the scene from the movie that I based my watercolor off of.

Today's cartoon was a lot of fun. I was told to option my favorite movie and depict it. So I decided to revert to my favorite movie equally a kid (and I am not afraid to admit nevertheless ane of my favorite Disney movies of all time), The Jungle Book. I was obsessed with this movie as a child, even wandering around the house singing about the Bare Necessities and rubbing my back against the wall like Baloo (I secretly retrieve I was channeling his free spirit and carefree lifestyle…haha). I was given the 40 ceremony edition for my 20th birthday dorsum in college (2007) and take watched it a ton of times (though I don't recollect I will ever have seen it the number of times I did as a kid, I wore the record out when I was younger).

Twenty-four hours 7: This cartoon is based on i of the scene in the movie where Mowgli is floating down the river on Baloo'south stomach, right before he gets snatched upwards by the monkeys to exist taken to King Louie. I decided to describe this scene using an archival pen on watercolor paper so going over the pen with watercolor. In some spots this proved a little difficult, such as for Mowgli's hair, just overall I am very proud of this piece and can't wait to work more on this medium. Vii days down and I am going strong still on my 30 Day Challenge!

P.S. Don't worry, day half-dozen is nevertheless in the process and I volition be finishing information technology and posting information technology soon I hope.
