Late Night Anime Fest! ^_^

I know it's late, and I should be in bed.. But I just wanted to share a couple pictures I did with my siblings.
Everyone keeps telling me I look like an anime character, so I found a quick anime character builder online made a few  ^_^ I especially like the eyes! Me and my siblings had a lot of fun.

This is my little sister did, and is supposed to be her. She was going for epic:)

This is another by my sister, and is supposed to be one of her characters she made up.

This is the one my younger brother did.. I really like how it turned out!

I tried several for me, but I think this last one is my favorite! ^_^ 

 I really like how the eyes look and I think these ones really look like my eyes. Which is nice, because I have been trying to draw my anime character myself.. Who knows, I am sure this is not the last anime that ya'll will see,

Lessons Learned :)

I definitely don't see myself as an abstract artist, but painting in abstract has definitely helped me learn a lot of basic skills in watercolor. So in the watercolor class I took I started out trying to be as realistic as possible and tried to get every detail, but the instructor encouraged all of us to think outside of the box and try doing it her way. And I don't think I would have improved as much if I hadn't painted in an abstract way! I also love trying to demonstrate an object with as little as possible and I think that artists that can are very talented ^_^

So here are a couple of the paintings I did in the class. They are mostly in chronological order. Hope you guys like them!

This last one is definitely my favorite. It kind of ending up being a weird mixture of realistic and abstract that I really feel is kind of balanced.
