Assassin Girl

This artist is another one from deviantart. Her deviantart name is hellobaby. I love her style. She's able to draw very detailed art and her shading is very well done. The picture above is one of the ones that she doesn't color, yet it isn't plain or anything. I think its pretty cool how she drew the character suspended upside-down, with hair flowing so nicely. It makes sense that an assassin should have the dexterity and agility to do such feats (like suspending herself from something). The skull hanging beside the assassin in the picture is also quite symbolic as it represents death and assassins are killers. I like the way her clothes are drawn with so much detail and overall, the artist managed to make the assassin look beautiful and dangerous at the same time.

Chevaleresse of fire

This is another work done by this artist. This one and the one right below are examples of her colored works. She mostly uses color pencils to color her art and it is amazing how she could use such a medium so well and effectively. I real admire her coloring skills as I prefer to use color pencils as my medium too. I hope I can color as well as her one day... one day... sigh. Anyways, like all her other works, these two pieces of art are drawn with a lot of detail, its amazing. And the clothes she fashions for her characters are also very suitable and lovely. I chose these two art pieces to represent her colored works as I wanted to show her use of different colored schemes to suit her character. The one above is fiery while the one below is water-ish. Both characters seem to embody the essence of what they represent (fire and water, respectively) from their colors and the way she drew them.

Water God

The last kind of art she does is the one that's half-colored. Shown below is an example. For the majority of the picture, she leaves it in black and white with appropriate shading, lightly colors (to give the drawing a hint of color so subtle, it almost can't be seen) the skin and clothes of the girl, and fully colors the main focus of her artwork, which in this case, is the heart-shaped balloon-like object that the girl is holding. As the title suggests, the artist's message was to show some love to those around us. That is why the heart-shaped balloon that seems to be blooming into little flowers and butterflies is colored pink, because pink not only means love, but it also means 'I will never forget you'. The touch of pink mixed with tints of peach and soft gold gives the floating heart a warm and pleasant aura/feel. The plainer colors of the rest of the artwork puts more emphasis on the colored area, as if to say that life without love is colorless. I like this effect and may try it out myself one day, and I also like the way the artist conveys her message effectively in this manner.

Spread the love
