French inspired Ballerina

Bonjour!
As I said in my entry French Inspiration  this cuatri is getting busier and busier, and I haven't had time for personal projects or for writting here. And that I just get a chance to draw when one of my teachers arrives late to school. But you know what? One of my teachers is getting used to come a bit late to his class from time to time, so, one of these times I took the chance to draw this.


Something funny about this, is the fact that I have never drawn a ballerina, since I don't really like ballet very much. And I don't like it cos ballet is something that is not natural for the human body, and causes severe damage on the feet of who practices it.
Without mentioning that the ballet industry forces girls to be extra tin to dance it, and then that's why the girls get in diets that are not healty and some of them even start to smoke to achieve that excesively and dangerously tin figure.

Leaving that aside, I just wanted to practice poses at the day I drew this, and to practice that effect of movement too. And I just thought a ballet pose would help me to do this, because ballerinas have a graceful movement.

This time (as the tittle says) like in my entry "French inspiration", I also felt inspired on famous cartoonish and comickers who have worked on my favorite shows or comics in french, specially for the face part, and the legs.
Comics and cartoons like Les contes de la rue broca, Il etait une fois...la vie, Lou, Les Aventures de Tintin et Milou.

Also, this time I felt inspired by the amazing and beautiful art style of David Gilson's comic, Bichon. His work is terrific! I hope one day (soon I hope) I can finish the article I'm doing to talk about his work.
I also hope he sees my work and he likes it, at least a bit, because I admire him a lot!

I mentioned the names of  the shows/comics instead of artists (except for David Gilson because I've seen lots of people know him) cos I felt if I said "Albert barilée" "Georges Remi" "Julien Neel", then you probably wouldn't imagine what kind of artstyle I'm talking of.
I've mentioned these names with my friends and they confessed to have no idea of what I was talking about! XD So that's why.

Referring about the "technique and materials used", this it was made with a black gel  pen and markers.
Usually I leave my markers at home cos to carry them everywhere is impossible, since I have lots of other things on then bag I use to go to college. But at that day I had my markers with me because I packed them cos I was going to use them for a work at the classroom.
 
Sorry about the quality of the photo but as my scanner doesn't work, I took a photo. I hope you enjoy the drawing anyways! And I hope to fix my scanner soon so I can give you a better quality of my work.

Sketches of past years.

I've been cleaning my dA page and I've realized that there are so many sketches of past years I have there and nobdoy have seen were just occuping an space in my dA gallery.

At first I thought on throwing them off to the recycle bin, because people don't see them on dA. Yet..I love all my drawings, I don't want to throw them up.
So I though, why not to pass those sketchs here, so you can still see them (for the ones who like to see artist's sketches) and so I don't need to throw them out. So here are them! Hope you enjoy seeing them!


Another comic Pin - Allouette
 Made on July 19, 2013.
Sketches of comic panels I doodled just before I start cooking. I am in a rush now, I was at work then I went to see the colleges, but I just wanted to do these sketches and post them somewhere so I don't forget this idea, it's like a pin XD....But someday I could be able to finish a comic?! Only time will tell...
I'm not sure if I'll ever finish it, it looks nothing like I was imaginging it but one thing is sure....I need lots of practice to draw birds oh my! XD





 





What I tried to do here was to draw Toothless, but at the end I ended up doing just a dragon. I think it was a nice one, though







Faikel and a Who
An sketch I made a saturday, Jul 14, 2012. I just had an idea of these 2 singing together cos I was listening to a song I found at that time.
I'm not sure if I'm going to do some painting in the future with this sketch, I've been lacking of inspiration and self-confidence since something that happened and I explained in my pic "what I did do wrong"  But I'm sure very soon the inspiration will come back.
 I'll not pressure things though. Plus, drawing doodles it's always fun *chuckles*
Sorry for the so brief description, I haven't had much time to come here and post my art, but you bet I've drawn good stuff and I'll post it as soon as I can have the time.



I was very stressed when I did this one, it helped me to write along with posting the drawing so here's what I wrote that was originally on dA.

"I have had much work in these weeks, so I haven't drawn anything O_O Also I had a bit of a bad day cos today nobody had keys of the house and we all went out, and my dad was bothered for that. But the worse thing was that we waited like half an hour so someone come to unlock the door. XD
But now I come to have a bit more time, today.
 So, I guess..... this is officially the first drawing of August. This is the first sketch I made today, apart of drawing for a comission, but it's sooo rough XD....should I be ashamed of it because it is a rough sketch?! *chuckles*
....no I'm NOT ashamed, no matter what the groups of "super high tech eleborated paintings" on dA say! I'm rather proud of this because, being able to do a pose like this it's very exciting and rewarding!  And I love my drawings! No matter they don't accept me in their groups!
Well, I was just practicing sitting poses here, because I have rarely drawn them, so I wanted to give them a try. Here it's Faik supposing to be sitting on a roof, looking at the starts. At first this was going to be a sad pic like him in looking for some comfort on the starts to not feel that bad, because I felt a bit sad and hopeless, and I usually transmit my emotions of the moment on the draw I do on those moements *chuckles*, but the drawing came out so good and I had much fun doing it, that he turned into a not so sad drawing, here he's rather inquisitive and amazed.
Pose estudy.
I hope the pose it's well drawn...it looks to me pretty good for the first time I draw this kind of pose at least .D I think the one with the head up came out bettter.... And bless the people here who make poses photos for reference of the artists! Because I took reference for this pose on this one
I think I'm liking very much to try new poses and perspectives and drawing sketches like this! It's really great cos I'm getting so much relax and inspiration from this! I think taking a break from drawing too elaborated paintings was the best thing I've done!
OH! Also as a note, it's the first time that I draw faikel (or any other character XD) On shirt of this style.
By the way, today we released Tor Tuga,  the turtle that we found some days ago, on some land where there was no constructions or anything. And it was both, funny and cute, cos Tor was so amazed of seeing all the plants and nature of a new place that just kept looking on the side to another."
