Vast Colors

In which I write about my weakness for illustrations and their wonderful..... wonders. It's been a while since I wrote something about ~*art*~ and I'm glad I've finally found the time to do something productive other than drowning myself in stacks of schoolwork (I am clearly exaggerating but then it's called "schoolwork" and anything school-related is stressing and tear-inducing especially if you're a graduating student). Anyway, I have found yet another incredible place full of illustrations. I don't know why I never really appreciated this artist back then I mean for hell's sake, I've been following this person on tumblr since day one--literally, no kidding. I have no idea how I stumbled upon his blog, I mean I liked his drawings so yeah click here, "I don't know what I'm doing who is this", and then I followed him. 

And then I found out that he's a Filipino and then I had feels for a moment because it's not everyday you find an illustrator who creates such vast strings of color and yadda yadda yadda. robcham is a great comics artist and I'm not just saying, I am telling. I'd love to have his life as an illustrator but I don't think I'm not fit for the job because I'm afraid I might run out of ideas and my boss will get mad and fire me and boom~ no job, no future, no joy. 

Anyway, take a good look at his illustrations and engulf yourself in the world of colors~ 

I personally like this one because I love Disney-Pixar movies. Then again, who doesn't? 

I believe he made this one for Erwan Heussaff's food blog, thefatkidinside. 

And he also does promotional posters for events! They're all so cool and colorful and so alive I think my system's going to release glitters and rainbows.

I saw Manix Abrera's name and I think I'm about to cry because he's one of my favorites along with Pol Medina huhu. It's just that it's so ~magical~ whenever you see/read something about your favorite people being friends with your other favorites YAY. 

You should really start following Rob Cham on tumblr because I have a strong feeling that if you don't, your dashboard will die of boredom and dullness. 

I really want to be like him when I grow up but I'm quite aware of the fact that sitting here in front of my laptop writing things about great people will be the only achievement I'll earn in the future. I can't wait. 

Illustrations 101

The other day, I spent my time looking over some art blogs. It was the most anticipated hour of  my life joke. But yes, I spent a lot of time admiring these pieces. I visited one of my favorite blogs and I saw a lot of art blogs. I was silently thanking the said blogger for putting that up on her blog since I've been looking for illustrated blogs for quite awhile now. 

The thing I love about these bloggers is that they're very creative (of course) and versatile. They never let time get in their way to finish a piece and that's something to be proud of. Unlike me who, unfortunately, is a good procrastinator. I like looking at their blogs because seeing their artworks give me gooey feeling inside that makes want to be motivated and proud of myself to the point that I would post a new piece everyday. I keep on telling myself that someday it will happen but that "someday" is not soon enough. Maybe this year, but I'm not sure, really. Inevitable things will be inevitable, just like my plans this year: more art (watch out, readers! [Joke, feeling famous huhuhu].)

Although they're of different art genres, they're all of the same attitudes: creative and open minded. I love how they keep their artworks different but all the same, in a way. I'd like to be that kind of artist someday, to be able to mix and match everything without confusing the audience of what I'm trying to show with my art. 

There are a lot of illustrated blogs out there but these are just few who deserve a hats-off and hands-down kind of thing. They're not just creative and beautiful-minded people but they're very hardworking people huhu.

Anyway I bought a new planner.
