Passing the Baton

Your name?
Hi, I'm Rachel.

If possible, your age?
二十歳.

When did you start drawing?
I started drawing as a hobby around 4th or 5th grade.

Which hand do you use for drawing?
Left. :3

Which is easier to draw - male or female?
Female for sure. D:

Which is easier to draw - long hair or short hair?
Long hair. (Maybe that's why it's hard for me to draw males...)

Is it easier to draw the head facing towards the right or the left?
It seems I more frequently draw the head facing towards my left.

Is it easier to draw the side view of the face or the front view?
Front view, usually at an angle. ;;;

What do you have problems in drawing?
Everything. Male body proportions, poses, backgrounds...

What do you like to draw?
Faces (particularly eyes), hair, clothing, happy situations. 8D

Are you a traditional artist or a digital artist?
I draw on paper, then I retrace my lines and color digitally. So mostly digital.

Where do you start drawing from?
Eyes first, then the nose, mouth, eyebrows, shape of face, then hair. Very unprofessional-like, lol.

What is your drawing habit that you are aware of?
I usually draw at my best when I'm happy, so the only emotion I can convey well is happiness. :< Also, there's not a lot of movement in my drawings.

Any tips for coloring/shading?
I'm not sure I'm in a place to say, since I need tips myself. I guess... color however you feel like! |D

How long does it take to finish a piece of art?
The original sketch on paper takes about 20 minutes, and then scanning + lineart + coloring... HOURS. At least 5 hours. ///orz

What music do you listen to while you draw?
I'm the weird person who concentrates better in silence. But music does inspire me to draw, so the stuff I listen to beforehand really varies.

How long does it take you to come up with an idea?
Nowadays I only grab a sheet of paper when an idea randomly pops into my head. Probably around 5-10 minutes to come up with a general idea, then I add on to it as I draw.

Your favorite drawing utensils?
A mechanical pencil and computer paper.

Your favorite color/the color that you use a lot?
Blues and pinks~

Your favorite style(s)?
Light and flowy, with interesting colors.

manga / manhwa / game artists:
Not very many... um... CLAMP... and... um. 8<

deviantART artists:
Now there's too many! *asuka111, *kurot, ~laverinne, *Ecthelian, *kissai, *yooani, ~vic-mon, =LanWu asgdhaghsd;g the list goes on.

What kind of artist are you aiming for?
An artist that's versatile? 8D;;
