12-27-17: Playing with New Tools
Though I’m sure this image is neither original nor thought-provoking, it served as an outlet, as I experimented with certain drawing techniques in Procreate.
Shrunken Head
A week ago, my sister and I had a long day at the hospital. Longer for her than for me. And I sketched a shrunken head in my journal, and posted it on Facebook. To make a short story long, a friend liked the sketch. So I did what I do, and here’s the result.

I am an artist. That means I can see myself however the hell I want.
Drawn in #Procreate. Rendered in #brushstrokeapp. Some fx (in the background) via the clone brush in #iColorama.

The latest to come tumbling from my fingers. Much of the work I do is a process of purging. I’m glad to be able to share this “purge” with you.
07-30-2017: Practice
“How do you get to Carnegie Hall?”
“Practice!” Old joke, but it still applies. People constantly ask how I achieve such great light and reality to my analog and digital art. Short answer: PRACTICE. Long answer: Constantly challenge how the brain wants to see something, through regular and daily practice. I’m always drawing, scribbling, sketching and seeing.
HOWEVER, My goal isn’t to become a better realist. I’m hoping to relearn how to deconstruct what I see, the way I used to.
Just stick with me, kids… Watch what happens to my work. Personally, I’m dying to know how this all comes out!

This is one of the ways I stay inspired. I keep journals and blank books with me, where ever I go. I have my favorite pens (Pilot Precise V5) with me. And I draw or sketch.
Stay inspired! ~ Gomi
