The Pretty One

Whenever I watch movies online, I do this thing where I screenshot every scene that is visually pleasing to me. I don't know why - I have nowhere to put them except for this blog. But alas, whatever!! Here is my collection of pretty scenes from The Pretty One, a movie starring adorable Zoe Kazan (as twins). This was a nice movie to watch, not too intense, funny at times, a little strange perhaps, but nice. And I would recommend it for these reasons, but mostly for Zoe - I think she was excellent.

the certainty of insecurity - finished drawing

I did finish this one though! In my last post I complained about my tendency to leave everything unfinished. But here it is, The Certainty of Insecurity.

the certainty of insecurity

I wish I could finish some actual art. I start many drawings. I have mountains of ideas piled up in my head. But I never finish anything. It's a very bad habit.

A work in progress! It's a little bit strange I know, it was an image that came to mind as I was falling asleep in my car one sunny day. I'm not sure what to do with it next; does he need legs? Should there be things in the background? What colour will it be??

I have been working on some actual doodles, I've just been too lazy to scan them. So in the meantime, here's some more MS Paint work.

fools among stars

Because I haven't posted in a few days, here's a drawing I did on MS Paint in under eight minutes, titled Fools Among Stars, and the song that was playing while I was making it.

toothpaste

I have no idea how this came about. I guess it's the kind of thing one creates in MS Paint after midnight.  I've actually been making my own toothpaste for a couple of years now; I may or may not print this and stick it to my jar. Perhaps then my family members won't mistake it for a facial scrub.
