12th, August; Where have i been....?


So then, i haven`t been too busy but i`ve not been on here in some time now.
It`s just that this is my holiday too so it`s mainly been catch-up time with online friends, family, real friends and a tiny bit of over time at work. I feel as if the stress of sixth form has literally just gone right now and i`m loving it... But that doesn`t mean that i`ve stopped doing any work...

So just lately i`ve been doing the obvious work for my David, (boyfriend), with his manga characters and i`ve been trying to give him advice and help him along. It`s just mainly been small characters and practice for me on making the characters.

Then i`ve been trying to photoshop people and make cartoony looking people as practice for my control on photoshop, they are quite blocky and chunky at the moment but then again this is all just a ton of practice for me. So far i`m just working on other people and doing smaller ones of them and, as i`m typing this, I have a separate window open with photoshop and i`m currently doing one of me and David!

So far people have given me advice and improvements to make (So, thank you), but i`m still struggling quite a bit and i`m trying to save up so i can buy a scanner for my drawings aswell so i`m busy-ish at the moment trying to test out new things that i can use when i go back to Sixth form... But that`s if i get back in

(Re-enrollment is on the 13th... So tomorrow... crap...)




I`ve also been trying to do creepier looking faces for art aswell... But this is where i`ll need everyone else`s help and hopefully some of my follwers and friends too.

So, my new art project is basically about my mental health problems; Depression, Anxiety and Psychosis.
But I wanted to know if other people could send in a picture of themselves and a little bit about them or their personal struggle.

You will also obviously have the option to either let me use your images on my blog or use them in my art, and the option to stay anonymous or not. It`s completely up to you guys if you want to be part of this or not, it`ll be interesting to see what comes out of this and i`m kind of looking forward to seeing what may happen if you guys do take part.

You never know, i may get no messages from you guys or i could get a few which should hopefully encourage others to send messages in!
If you are interested in seriously helping me out; then message me on the facebook page or you can send me an e-mail at :-
marshyandthemelons@gmail.com

(The same rules apply with the cartoony block images and the creepy images, I`m just doing these for practice so i apologize if any of them come out terribly bad).

Thank once again to anyone who still reads my blogs and to anyone who has messaged me on Deviantart and the facebook page with your opinions. It`s always a big help...
(and thanks for being patient with me since I`m quite slow right now).
