'what should i draw?'
'relax your left hand, put it on the table and start.'
feeling bored in hotel room
starting to draw my left palm
found out the negative space technique works
starting not to be afraid of drawing
all you need is patience and concentration anyway

克服"心急"是繪畫很重要的一環,
下一筆前先在腦中模擬幾次至幾十次,
如果能做到,畫出來的難看極有限。
正如一個計畫周詳的旅行,
怎也不會太糟。
當然有時不跟路線圖四處亂盪,
或可打撞出新風光,
但在此之前先打好基本,
累積多點基本小知識也很重要。
芝姐,我发姣写紧剧啊……
发觉,唔识写拍拖戏,点算……
just do ur best
and draw ur feeling
Are you taking drawing classes currently? It would be helpful if you take still life drawing / life drawing classes before going to the US. However I don't think it is necessary because you have have to retake all those classes all over again if you are doing undergraduate courses. By then you will be drawing day and night, not only 7 hours ;)
A bit of thought on your hand drawing: your outline is too strong.... try to build the drawing from the shape and tone difference instead of drawing a hard outline and fill in the details. But you will learn all that when you start school.
Which school did you end up choosing?
are you taking english class too?
o, to be perfectly honest, yr eng needs as much polishing as your drawing. perhaps a mere honest mistake, but i dont know, just a piece of advice.
great practice, keep up the good work!!
drawing techniques -- you will learn day by day, and pick it up in no time with continuous practice~
After all, I believe, the most important thing u need for art is actually your unique perspectives on art and on life, which you definitely have and you will keep on fostering it, I am sure~
good work, way to go!!!
take care~ =)
G...hate to say, but you still have long way to go...making good art does take time :)

G already have star power (at least in HK/HK circle)...She is already somewhat ahead of the game in terms of fame. Making quality stuff or not is almost secondary.

I recommended 'The Book of a Hundred Hands' by George B. Bridgman if u want to be good at drawing hands. The book is hella cheap... copy the whole book (which I am doing now) Kirk shinmoto, a 21 years old talented instructor told me to do so...
