Animation Girl Vlog #19 - New Channel & Thanksgiving

Hey Animation Girl fans! I apologize for any inconvenience, but I had to move my channel from Animation Girl to Animation Girl Vlog due to some issues with my monetization account. I appreciate all the support I've gotten from everyone so far and I do hope you'll follow me over at my new location! I hope you had a great holiday, I know I did! Can't wait for some fun stuff coming up right around the corner. Stay tuned!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I wanted to do this happy pie loving caricature as my way of wishing you all a happy holiday!

Animation Girl Vlog #18 - Chibi Charms and Holidays!

I can't believe I haven't shared my Chibi Charms with my Youtube audience! How shameful of me! With the holiday season upon us and commissions starting to pour in, I thought it would be a good time to let  you know of some unique custom work I love to do. My polymerclay chibi charms are super adorable, just watch and you'll see!

In addition, a very new partnership is in bloom between myself and a twitch.tv gamer. More news to come when details get hammered out, but I will tell you this: It involves give away boxes full of art!

Animation Girl: Monster Attack Speed Animation

Hey everyone! Slowly but surely I'm making headway on Role Playing World. In this scene a monster jumps out of some rustling bushes! I took a lot of inspiration from Pokemon and other works where monsters are only shadows before they are revealed. Watch the video and you'll see what I mean.

Animation Girl Vlog #17 - Working on the go

So, remember before when I said that I was excited for my new Wacom Cintiq Companion 2 drawing tablet? And remember when I said I couldn't wait to draw, video edit, and even possibly vlog on the go? Well here it is! My very first vlog done with my drawing tablet! I didn't bring my good microphone, but despite a little wind here and there I have to say the video turned out a lot better than it could have! This drawing tablet is really saving my life now a days.

Animation Girl Teaches: Female Hand Side #1 Tutorial

Okay guys, I had a lot of fun doing my very first tutorial and I felt a little bad that it was just sketches so I picked my favorite hand pose of the 9 and have put together this little tutorial step by step start to finish from sketch to final lines. Once again this is an unedited straight through tutorial, so feel free to follow along and get your practice on!

Animation Girl Teaches: How To Sketch Hands

Hey everyone! My very first tutorial is finally here! I apologize for the length, but I guess there is no real way to have a full fledged tutorial be any shorter. This is completely unedited so feel free to work along with me as I go through 9 unique hand poses and how to break them down into basic shapes. From those basic shapes you can refine them in your own style and make them yours or just continue to work on sketches to build up your practice skills!

Animation Girl - Mushroom Speed Drawing

All right guys, Animation Girl here sticking with the food theme. Today's speed drawing is of a mushroom girl! Yes, I know, I've gotten a little carried away. But I needed more work for my new Wacom drawing tablet! I have to be sure this bad boy is worth the price tag. And I have to say, so far so good. I really am enjoying being able to work digitally on the go without the hassle of a fully fledged laptop.

Animation Girl Vlog #16 - New Wacom Tablet

Hey everyone! Animation Girl here to discuss my new Wacom Cintiq Companion 2! So, this new drawing tablet is essential for my current on the go lifestyle. I wish I had more time to spend working on projects at home, but with this new tablet I can rest assured that I can at least knock out a drawing or two, not to mention some video edits and perhaps even a vlog if need be. I haven't had this bad boy long enough to give a full review, but I do have to say that so far it's doing everything I need it to. Not to say their aren't some weird bad habits that I wish didn't exist, but those are more minor annoyances than anything else.

Also, a quick shout out to Josh and Christian! Thanks for being interested and subscribing to my channel! And stay tuned as my very first drawing tutorial will be rolling out in the near future!

Animation Girl - Avocado Girl Speed Drawing

Hey everyone! Watch this adorable speed drawing of my cute little Avacado Girl! I was super excited to do this particular drawing, not only because she's cute, but because she's the very first design drawn on my new Wacom Cintiq Companion 2! As usual, I completed this green beauty by using Paint Tool Sai and worked completely digitally. Check out my upcoming vlog for more information on how I like the new tablet.

Animation Girl Vlog #15 - Chasing Your Dreams

Hey everyone! As a freelance artist I understand how difficult it can be to chase your dreams. Especially, when the going gets tough. But I promise you, being happy, is worth a whole lot more than doing what everyone else thinks is best. Don't give up!

Animation Girl - Vlog # 14 Working for Exposure

Hey guys, Animation Girl here discussing if Working for Exposure is a good idea. Can you guess what I'm going to say? Well, if you've worked freelance in any way shape or form than you know working for exposure isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Animation Girl Vlog #13: Should I Go To Art School

Hey there! I know that deciding to go to an Art College can be a big decision for many reasons including financial and developmental progress. The following video contains a few tips from my own personal experience that may give you a little more to think about than you already have been.

Yes, I went to Art College. Yes, I loved every minute of it. Yes, I'm still in debt. And no, I didn't get a fancy job right after I graduated. But, there are some pros and cons to going to art school and this video should help you think about things in a new way.

Animation Girl Vlog #9 - New Digital Technique & Traditional Drawing

Hey Everyone! So I didn't get the things accomplished that I thought I would, but I still ended up doing some fun things. I was inspired to try a new digital coloring technique in paint tool sai and I have to say, I kinda liked it! I also did some traditional drawings and I haven't drawn with pencil and paper in way too long a time!

In My Closet - How to Wear Black on Black Speed Paint

Black on black is a great ensemble, just remember to spice it up with a pop of color or a pattern! This speed paint video shows a great business casual ensemble if paired with a cardigan. Not too hot and not too cold this outfit of the day in my closet was just right.
I was trying out a new coloring technique in this video. I think I like the concept of how the new shading technique works. I will be pushing my digital coloring style moving forward. Enjoy!

Sylveon Speed Paint

So, I never thought that Sylveon would be on of my favorite pokemon until I started playing Pokemon X. Can't deny that once I got him, he became an integral part of my team to defeating the Elite Four. Eevee's have always been my favorite pokemon (all evolutions), but I was inspired to do this speedpaint of my Pokemon X number 1 go to pokemon, Sylveon!
