bjbjLULU I have a confession... I had no clue who Emilie Autumn was when my FB peeps voted
for her......Once there is a little person in your life calling you DAD, you cease to
be COOL anymore! So I googled her and she's a fascinating gal. I have only heard a few
of her songs but she seems to be "Tori Amos with a Violin". Thats a big compliment.....Tori
was huge to my generation! I am using 3 photo references for this mixed media artwork.And
I am drawing EACH on a SEPARATE piece of paper. (The plot thickens)! OFF TOPIC: I once got
in to a FIGHT with a VIOLIN PLAYER.......But I swallowed my pride and walked away......Because
VIOLINS SOLVES NOTHING! I have MORE FUN working LOOSELY.....I am NOT trying to make this PHOTO-REALISTIC.....Artists
are sketchy people!Now I am drawing the pants.....When this artwork is done....everything will be
together. I will explain why I do this later..........Now I am drawing the pants.....When this artwork

Tip: BUY GREY PAPER. If you draw on white paper....YOU'RE DRAWING ON A FRIGGING HIGHLIGHT!!!!!
Neutral toned paper can allow artists to leave BOTH highlights and shadows. Pro's Tip: BUY
GREY PAPER. If you draw on white paper....YOU'RE DRAWING ON A FRIGGING HIGHLIGHT!!!!! Neutral
toned paper can allow artists to leave BOTH highlights and shadows.Just kidding! I gave
her one leg because I am going to flip it in Photoshop. CONFESSION: I feel a lot of
pressure when I draw because I know that everyone wants to learn how to get a realistic likeness.
I ENJOY, stuff like (what I am doing in this video) MUCH MORE! I take a sketchbook with
me almost everywhere. ......Like I said.....Artists are sketchy people! I use prismacolor colored
pencils! They ROCK! Ideally, you DO NOT want to mix them with graphite pencils. They get
smudgy (you should erase the graphite first).....but its OK....what I do next will fix things.I
use prismacolor colored pencils! They ROCK! FACT: Emilie Autumn's hair is not naturally
FLUORESCENT!!!!!! For the Record, the artist who draws the BEST HAIR on YouTube is SophieChan90.
She uses markers too. CLICK HERE to visit her channel. But COME BACK!!!!!! Don't get
mesmerized by the hair! That is a Decocolor opaque paint marker. h4ZR gd4ZR I have a confession
