Geeky Doodles

Allergies have been plaguing my eyes this past week and trying to put makeup on their swollen, irritated lids are totally out of place. Instead I spent my Saturday and Sunday evenings doing something that I haven't done for at least a couple of years; sketching portraits! 


Although I'm a bit rusty it was fun to take up this hobby again, and I guess some geeky sketching is just the perfect way to channel the love you can feel for characters from something that you are completely hooked on. :) 

And since people always ask this when I post art:

What materials did you use? Regular paper and pencils (HB, 4H, 6B and 8B), and cotton buds for shading. 

How long does it take you to do a portrait? Between 1 - 2.5 hours. 

Not makeup-related but I figured I'd show them to you anyway. Hope you've had a great weekend! :)

      Thank you! :) Seven of Nine was pretty easy to draw (except for her Borg implant...) because she's so beautiful.

      Thank you so much! No, I don't have any formal art training, I just draw occasionally when I feel inspired to. :)

    I love your Spock portraits! So, looking back at the original series, Spock, his betrothed T'pring, T'pau and others, how about doing a classic Vulcan eye some time? :D

    You are incredibly talented! It's fun to see what bloggers do outside of their main blog topic once in a while.

    Hope the allergies ease up soon. Around here it's been one of the worst years ever for a lot of people.
