Practicing with markers

Today I've been practicing my blending and shading with markers! I haven't used markers a whole lot but I've been really liking using them lately! I love the way they glide across the paper so smoothly...

Working on the skin.

Now the hair.

Finished!

Latest Sketches

These are a few character sketches I've drawn recently!

I'm going to try and do some finished pieces with a few of these characters, maybe something with watercolor as I haven't used my watercolors in a while! :)

Before and After Miniature Cheese Pizza

I've been in the miniature pizza making mood lately and I decided to sculpt a simple cheese pizza! I haven't been happy with any of the pizza's that I've made before

so I decided to try some new techniques while making this one. I'm pretty happy with the turn out!

 Before - December 2012

After - June 2013

 I'm happy to see the improvements between the pizza I made in December and the pizza I made a few days ago, Its so inspiring for me!

Recent Charms

These are a few cute charms that I've sculpted recently!

These charms are a paint brush + paint pallet, I'm planning to make these into a necklace that I can wear!

These cute eggs were super fun to make! I didn't add eye pins to these so they're not charms, but I'll definitely be making more and I'll add eye pins to the new ones I make so I can make them into earrings!

These are two silly chocolate bar charms that have little red tongues sticking out!

I hope you enjoyed seeing the charms that I've made recently, and I hope you had a fantastic weekend!

First Youtube Video

I have been working on a slideshow of my miniature food these past few days and I'm super excited because today I uploaded it to Youtube! This is my first Youtube video, I hope you enjoy watching it!

I hope you're having a fantastic weekend!

Miniature bread assortment

Yesterday I was busy baking some yummy 1:12th scale bread! I made a few different varieties and I'm planning to make more!

Braided egg breads, baguette, and a few loaves fresh out of the oven! The baguette has a crispy outer crust and is soft and warm on the inside... I love bread!

The braided egg breads are probably my favorite from this batch, they were so much fun to sculpt!

Eye drawings

This past week I've been sick in bed so I'm sorry I haven't been blogging! These are some of my latest eye drawings!

I used colored pencils and ink to draw this eye. I haven't used my Prismacolor pencils in a while, I forgot how much I enjoy drawing in color!

I used graphite and micron pens for this drawing of a baby's eye.

and I used graphite and micron pens for this eye drawing too. :)

Have a wonderful week!
