Mall's 2nd art videos: SKETCHING
I must admit that my digicam made me feel uncomfortable when I was working on my acrylic painting, I don't know the reason. But funnily, I felt very comfortable to make my sketch while videotaping. I got two videos. Let me explain how and where I got influences / inspirations before sketching:
- Paprika and Nausicaa girl characters from Japanese animated films
- Looks of Natalie Portman and Marilyn Monroe
- Joao Ruas and Audrey Kawasaki
- Cathy Johnson's pencil strokes. I learned from her art book about pencil shades / tones / strokes when I was a high school girl.
- drawing speed / face drawing. I learned from my art professors Darnay Demetillo, Robert Acosta & Nolet Soliven in UP Fine Arts College Baguio in 1998-2000 year.
- "Bushes" & "The Way You Dream" by 1 Giant Leap. Long songs make me concentrated to sketch it directly. Their songs make me feel something intensed, dreamy & passionate when I draw and paint. I'm a huge fan of 1 Giant Leap since 2002.
I observed them. Then I started sketching a girl character what I imagined from those references. Here you guys, enjoy viewing.
PART ONE. Rough Sketch.
PART TWO. Add Tones.

I really watch your 3 lovely videos, Mall. They are amazing!!! :D I enjoy them a lot..!! So, I have a little question.
What type of pencilholder do you use to draw? Is ithard, soft? I would like to know it.
What type of rubber do you use? I would like to know these artist's small tricks.:D
Thank you very much!!! :D
simply fantastic, Mall! love watching you work to see how you create the finished product! <3
So inspiring! I'm so glad you posted these. Also, it was very relaxing to watch you draw! Maybe part of that was the dreamy music you played. :) Lovely drawing! Her face is amazing.
These videos were both so amazing to watch!! It is mesmerizing to see how you create your artwork and how step by step you made that fantastic sketch. We were blowned away by the girl expression. She does have a lot of Natalie Portman :D The pencil work is brilliant and the shadding... marvellous. ♥
