Sketches from dreams

I've done some sketches from my dreams, I don't really remember what happened in them much just certain elements of what was in them, here's one sketch I did...

Fed Up.

Ok so my ex Sam is trying to get back in contact with me. He says he's changed and that he's dumped his "mates" (who were one of the main reasons I dumped him as they are selfish abusive thugs). But I don't know, I mean, I can't trust him you know? Surely I can't.. It's not like he changed when I was with him so why would he be any different now? and he's so f***ing persistent! I've TOLD him that we're over and there's no chance for us but he wont stop..

What am I going to do?

Some Photos at Ashton Court

So today as it was all sun shine and lolly pops I thought I'd talk a stroll to Ashton Mansion and take a few photos..

Flame Inside Animation

Again done with play doe. I've tried to capture the emotion both of when the "flame" inside a person grows brighter, and when it loses its life..

Horse of death...

Ok so long story short, (and also hoping that Kirk has received his letter by now!), a guy from Youtube replied to my mail idea. He suggested that maybe some people might be a bit wary about giving their address out because you could send them anything... you know like a horses head... yeah. So I thought that it would be a good idea to send this horse head to everyone who gave me their address as an example of just how mean and nasty I truely am :)

More Animation Experiments

So here are a few more quick animations I've tried out.. It's still all very rough around the edges I know but I'm hoping to get better! =]

More Sketchbook Doodles

 Just a few more doodles I did due to boredom... Yeah, I couldn't be bothered to do anything big but I still like to draw.. I should really get some more paper!

Some more sketchbook stuff

 This is my first go at drawing a wolf, it took quite a while as it is all pretty much made from short pencil marks, but I'm quite happy with the result.. except the eyes look a bit crooked.. It's so hard to get them right!!

 This picture was done with ink, experimenting with small detail of shadows and how it effects the overall image.

This is a hummingbird done by pen. It was hard getting the right colours in the feathers as i had a limited selection of colours. But yes. I like hummingbirds, they're so pretty!

Notebook Doodles

 Pretty self explainatary really... I got bored and just started doodling.. enjoy :)

A few Beach Photos

 Here are just a few photos of the beach I took when I was visiting Laura. I have a cannon eos 1000d and light was fading quite fast, but yeah. I quite liked the composition of this first photo, even though it's nothing special and a bit of a cliche for sunset type photos as you pretty much have half sky, half ground, a bit of hill silhouetted at one side... but I think the sea gives a nice 3rd element to this somewhat classical frame as it reflects the yellow/blue sunset.

 I like this photo because  of the texture of the waves in the sea, the foamy broth that more defines the waves. Admittedly, though, this may have been a somewhat more desirable photo if the sun was shinning strong down on the sea at this point. Being dusk it does make it seem a little dull..

 Basically another 2 of the same as the first photo but there we go

 If you can't tell... I rather enjoy the sea =]

 (this one I tried to capture the bird flying across [you might be able to notice the black dot in the top left]. And that is probably the only different thing between this and the above photo =] )

 Non blurry sea... Blurry sea, which one wins? you deside!

And that's about all for now. TaDa!

Animation Experiment

This was just a quick stop-motion animation experiment that I did trying to capture facial expressions using plasticine. Not the easiest of materials to work with but it was fun to do.

House Party!

Hello everyone

So I'm going to a house party tonight... I have no idea what to wear or what to expect but I'm looking forward to it! It should be good!

I will try and do some painting today but no promises. I was also thinking about trying out some animation- stop-motion animation that is. So depending on which one I get to first, that's what I'll post first =]

The Beauty of a Letter

I have been thinking recently about how electric we are in communication these days and although that's all good and well and instant, I think that the good old fashioned letter/postcard that isn't actually bills or junk mail is still a really lovely thing to receive!

Therefore, I am proposing to make people feel special and send all you lovely lot who follow my work something through the post! I would love for you to either message me on here, my Youtube page : http://www.youtube.com/user/alicewhite113   or email me at alicewhite113@hotmail.co.uk and a personalized letter will shortly be on its way to you!

It's been a while!

Hello everyone!

I know it's been a while since I posted anything up. I'm sorry! but you know how life gets busy for no aparent reason sometimes!

Just to update you,  the last 2 life drawing type classes were cancelled due to the people that run it going down with this nasty sickness bug that's going around. I wont be going this thursday as Debbie's invited me to her house party so that's what I'll be doing this week.

However, after some internet troubles and fixing, I have started a vlog on youtube! You can follow me at: www.youtube.com/user/alicewhite113

I will catch up on posts soon! =]

Dotted Boot

This is an experiment I did using just dots, a little like pointilism. I only used pen (and pencil for the outlines) in order to create the boot image. It's fairly easy to do, simply clustering the dots close together for shading.
