the atelier

"holy shit, we're actually doing this?"

"well, welcome to the atelier, which according to this dictionary, is a room or building in which an artist works"

this page is part of a recent re-committal to art, and this time, i'm not going to let myself stop me!
   he said, confidently, unknowing of the upcoming treachery

this room will work as a blog, where each time he learns something new, or draws something new, i will graciously broadcast information on what he did, including pictures [even if they're bad, relatively speaking]this is still quite a work in progress, so don't get too comfortable with this layout!

Rabbit, WITH some Steel

Wednesday, February 12th, 2026 @ 01:39 AM EET [UTC+2]

^{I'm going to be semi-unfiltered in this one.}
In the evening, I decided I wanted to continue building upon the new rabbit character I made yesterday by giving them a weapon.I initially had the idea of them kneeling and aiming their bow at an off-screen target.I started playing around with stickman sketches, attempting to get the general shape before I commit to the full drawing.After playing around, however, I realized that most archers actually stand and shoot, not kneel.
[though my reasoning for this was that drawing a standing character is easier, so throw that fact out of the window for me, thanks.]This drawing actually used a larger canvas compared to the sketch, which I think is important. I don't know how important, but it's important.I then drew the rough position of the character as provided by this awesome reference image I drew:

I'm not kidding.

And yes, I know that the left arm doesn't reach the body of the bow, but I pointed that out with an arrow and some off-screen text.I started the art with the legs, then the dress, arms, and head.Incredibly, after I reached the hair, I didn't want to kill myself again! And even MORE incredibly, I actually split up strands of hair into sections that don't look like shit, at least to me.I then drew the bow that they would be wielding, but I fucked up the layers, so I had to juggle some lineart around layers to cover stuff correctly, and even that isn't perfect.After more drawing, shading, and other shit, I thought the drawing was finished.
Guess what? I ADDED THE BACKSIDE OF THE DRESS, HOLY FUCKING SHIT??? THREE DIMENSIONS EMULATA EED IN TWO DIMENSIOmnWhile a minimal change, it puts me in awe that such a simple change can have such a profound effect on the final piece, like what???The arms are a little noodly, but the pose relays the message very well. There's no problem there.This took me the longest out of any piece I've made so far, clocking in at about three or four hours.
Who knew a game such as Rabbit and Steel, which I initially assumed was not a game for me, could have such a profound effect on my artistic journey?

Rabbit but no Steel

Wednesday, February 10th, 2026 @ 11:13 PM EET [UTC+2]

I wanted to keep my drawing momentum by sketching something, but I didn't know what at first.After some thought, a single game came to my mind: Rabbit and Steel.The reason why this game came to mind was due to several factors, in this case:1. I just played the game
I had recently played Rabbit and Steel along with debelopment. We didn't quite beat Extra Mode on Hard, though.2. The playable characters were memorable
The minimalistic yet expressive design of the rabbits stuck in my mind, and during most gameplay, I wanted to draw one from a reference.Even though the playable characters stuck with my mind, I used the menu art as my reference, although there isn't much difference. The more basic limbs and the mostly flat 2-dimensional perspective on the characters helped a ton with the sketch.After sketching and writing a bit of this entry, I figured it was a good idea to add some color and shading.After playing around with the color a bit, I figured out a skin color that doesn't immediately look "off". A slightly more pale-white ■ color, and a dark-ish gray ■ for the dress. Afterwards, for the hair, I decided to choose a green color.Before committing to a shade of green, I filled in the hair with a random green ■ that doesn't immediately ruin the sketch. After filling everything in, I tuned in the green ■ I wanted and used the fill bucket to replace the placeholder green with the green I wanted.After some shading, the drawing was finished.A postmortem during the process of the art was that the hair did not immediately destroy my motivation to continue this sketch. It's quite basic, but it really adds life to the sketch. I also noticed that the right leg is a little too wide, but mistakes happen.

Lost Spellbook

I was motived to draw this night, so I wanted to draw one of my characters for once.However, after I tried to draw my character, Darkenium, I was immediately met with a blockade: My skill in drawing 3-dimensional space is not sufficient.
Heck, I even tried to use a reference of my own character, but two things immediately became apparent:1. The hair is going to be a nightmare
Every time I finish the body of a character I intend to draw, the realization of having to draw hits me like a bullet train ramming into a brick wall. It really isn't easy.2. My sense of scale or perspective is completely out of line
It is insanely hard for me to even fathom drawing 3-dimensional art right now. I could try drawing a bunch of cubes at various perspectives to train my skills in that field, but I'd probably rather stick to 2-dimensional for the time being, and that might be a lot simpler.So, in response to all of this, I decided to draw a pretty empty landscape with nothing but stars in the sky and ripples in the void/water hybrid.After finishing the basic background, I was thinking of what to put within the ripples. ^{[there's just one ripple, though]}Initially, I was planning on drawing a character looking up at the stars in awe. Unfortunately, however, I decided that drawing the character in 3-dimensions was a good idea, and it faltered quite quickly. Alas, I was back to square one.Faced with a creative block, I took a glance at my Roblox Studio place that I had open consisting of my characters. Immediately, a mutual key feature between my characters stood out, the spellbook.So, I decided that the main focus of the drawing would be the spellbook which Viosinth and Encythe carry around. [Canonically, however, Viosinth can't read the book.]
After some finishing touches, the drawing was done.It was seriously annoying and demotivating, but I can't be jumping into something that I don't even know much about and expect to come out victorious. I'll stick to mostly 2-dimensional art from here, and I might prefer drawing bald characters from now on.

There isn't much detail in this drawing, but that's fine, since I'm still learning.

I really wanted to draw a carrot when I got home from school for some reason, so I did just that. I drew a carrot.

The re-commitment

Wednesday, February 4th, 2026 @ 03:38 AM EET [UTC+2]

For the first entry on this blog, I thought it'd be good to mention that I have minimal experience in art, but due to ADHD, my brain can be very creative.The problem, however, is that I am unable to manifest my thoughts and imagination onto a standard piece of paper, or a canvas on a screen using a mouse.Each time I have an imagination that I really want to put on a canvas, I keep thinking to myself: "Oh, that's a pretty cool idea, but of course, I can't manifest it, because I can't draw."So, to prove to myself that I can, in fact, manifest my imaginations into reality, I will commit to art, primarily digital art, and starting from mostly ground zero, then working my way through the rabbit hole that is art.I already have some kind of roadmap for how my journey is going to go, but I've studied some things from jiskin's style, including how art is usually done, in order, at least for her:
"sketch > lineart > base color > extra detail > shading > lighting > small configurations to lineart"I've managed to study shading, mostly on my own, but with some nudges from jiskin [yes, every person will have a different color] to point me in the right direction.After finishing my learning session, I sent out a message to one of my friends who was also learning art, though undoubtedly more ahead than me:

Encythe

laerned some shading tech [sic]

Funnily enough, I had also figured out that jiskin mostly uses flat colors in their art initially, but then adds shading, highlights, and gradients using various blending methods, like Multiply and Overlay, which is what was done in this image. However, I have not fully understood the correct brightness to use for each blending mode, but this will come later.

Gyropala

oh thats nice
good for you

Very reassuring.That concludes this entry for now, until next time!
