Business Cards

I am trying to come up with business card designs. Have wanted to do this since I made one for a high school design assignment. Except that one was more for a business than an individual.

First try.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Kyoko

I've decided to draw at least one of these a day. Let's see how long I can keep this up.

Sketches from Fall 2011 Sketchbook

So I am finally getting around to sorting through my sketchbook from last semester. These are some sketches from it.

Pen/ Pencil:

2011-08-26 Food.

2011-09-01 Devrim & Claire. From a fictional story premise I invented with a friend.

2011-10-13 Mug in Perspective.

2011-11-09 Pretty Woman~. (Yes, I draw naked women in my Japanese notebook. While singing songs from morbid musicals in my head.)

2011-11-23 Warrior Women. (Because one totally enters battles stark naked. This was also in my Japanese notebook. XD Managed to edit out the lines for this one.)

Ink/Color:

2011-09-14 Hippocami. Color pencils. 

2011-09-26 Hanfu. I really like traditional Chinese clothing.

2011-09-26 Birds. Brush pen.

2011-09-26 Hanfu 2. Brush pen and ink bg.

2011-11-18 Orchid. Crow quill pen.

2011-11-18 Woman at the Beach. Crow quill pen.

2011-12-07 Yellow Hanfu. Watercolors.

2011-12-07 Hedgehog. (Painted in the middle of Jap class. >_>)

2011-12-07 Cherry Trees. Don't like that pagoda. (This was in the middle of class, too, but not Japanese. XD)

Anime Expo

So I am going to sell at Anime Expo this year. Which means. THE RETURN OF ANIME. I want to do watercolor prints. Except I'm so out of the anime scene, I don't know any shows besides the major ones.

An example of a watercolor print. Experimental.

I'm thinking of selling jewelry, too. Glass bottles with stars/beads and small origami made into necklaces, earrings, and cell phone charms.

If I have time, I might make those tiny lolita hats that people make. That might get a little expensive, though. I'd rather do things where I can buy supplies in bulk. Also animal felt hats, maybe. That might not be too expensive. 

Anyone have suggestions on popular animes? Would you be interested in origami jewelry? Should I sell it at all? Is there anything else you would like to see me sell?

Happy Chinese New Year!

Originally drawn for work. Happy Chinese New Year, everyone! WIPs are on my tumblr.
