A Day In Our Lives #12

Hey guys!

This week I wanted to draw what my commute to school normally looks like. I feel like I am always carrying a million things! Art school needs a lot of supplies. I live on central campus and have to commute to north campus to go to school, which means I have to take the bus. It feels awful to have to carry a lot of art supplies or your own artwork for everyone to see. The experience is awful especially when it is an art piece I don’t like or aren’t proud of. Have sympathy for us art kids <3  I hope the start of everyone’s semester is going well! All of my artwork in this blog is done in procreate.

CATEGORY [ XENOBIOLOGY ]

ARTICLE ARVHIVED FROM [ MARIAH BERGGREN ]

ARTICLE NOTES:

[ The hammerhead strider is a large, terrestrial strider native to Khepri-1b. Two distinct species have been thus far identified: the common hammerhead strider and the marsh hammerhead strider. The former lives in a broad range of grasslands and shrublands, while the latter live in swamps and other vegetation-rich wetlands. They are often spotted travelling in small groups. ]

Hey guys,
I am currently writing this post on Christmas! There has certainly been a lot of crazy weather this week so far. I drew my mom’s dogs in costumes for the holidays. I draw all of my artwork on this blog with Procreate on the Ipad. I like filling up the canvas with different patterns or little details surrounding the subjects in made-up backgrounds. I am excited to get back to campus for the new semester!

Happy holidays everyone!

Hey guys!

I hope all is going well for everyone. I wanted to create  a drawing this week that reflected how I feel instead of the regular cute things! It makes me so nervous when I see the “your grade has been posted.” This has been a super fun semester and I have been lucky to make a lot of friends in my classes. I am excited for next semester, I am going to be taking classes on pottery and fiber construction so I am super excited about that! My main medium for art right now actually isn’t illustration, but fiber! I like creating things out of yarn including clothing, looming, etc. Previous to my transfer to UofM I studied illustration at a different college. I submitted my artwork to a student exhibition and I’m eagerly waiting on the results!

I hope you all are having a good break!!

Hey guys!

I’m writing this post just as I get back from Thanksgiving break. I have a lot of things to be thankful for! This is a drawing of what a typical Thanksgiving layout would look like at my house. It is still missing a few items! I was fortunate enough to be able to see most of my family over this break. I was even able to see my long-distance best friend for a few hours. Thanksgiving is a really important time for us college kids to connect with our families that we may have not seen in a while. I hope everyone had a restful break. We are getting ready for finals!! Only a few more weeks left in the semester. Luckily, Christmas break is right around the corner!

See you next week !

KHEPRI-1B

SPECIES NO. [ 009 ]

ARTICLE ARVHIVED FROM [ MARIAH BERGGREN ]

ARTICLE NOTES:

[ These streamlined, omnivorous creatures seem to spend most of their time gliding and soaring at high altitudes in the atmosphere of Khepri-1b. Their body structure is rather unusual; they have three pairs of translucent, thin wings; two large, simple compound eyes — one dorsal and one ventral; a dorsal, ventral, and tail fin for flight stabilization and steering; a small beak-like mouth at the anterior. Most of its body is covered in fibrous hair- or feather-like material, which lightens in coloration from top to bottom. They are clumsy when grounded, only able to maneuver by pushing with its second pair of wings and its short, stiff tail. ]
