Valentine Video

Here is another time-lapse video on the theme of love.  It was supposed to be a video-response to a SoulPancake--Artattack video but I couldn't figure that part out so I tagged them instead.  I use the Youtube Video editor to add the audio track which disables monetization on my end.  This means I make no money broadcasting this video on YouTube, but the owner of the audio does.  I wish it was a mutually supported thing for both original video and audio content creators but oh well.  Who really reads this blog anyway?  Enjoy!




Video Up!!!

So here is my video I created using my old Olympus Stylus Tough.  I used Windows Movie Maker to edit the video so it is sped up under 3 minutes and then used YouTube's video editor to add text, notes, and the kickass audio by Dub Trio called "Sunny I'm Killed".  Check it out!

I want to get a GoPro HD camera so I can get a much clearer video next time around.

Drawing: Action Comic Style

One day I was bored.  I have been unemployed for a while and in between waiting for new jobs to apply to, possible interviews, and other opportunities I caught myself watching daytime television.  Personally, I have no desire to see anything on TV after 10am... Monday through Friday.  Too much drama... The internet can get a little stale too.  So I decided to go to the library and get an actual book to read.  I got 4.  And one of them is Drawing Cutting Edge Comics by Christopher Hart.  I decided to really practice and develop a style with the human figure because I have plans for a larger acrylic on canvas work.  Also, I have plans to write a short story comic about Saipan.  As I draw these figures  they may develop into characters that will star in a future "Pangelinan". 

Right now I am almost through Chapter 1:  The Basics With an Attitude on page 19.  If you have to book with you can see some of likeness of my drawings to the figures in the pages by Christopher Hart.  So follow me as I sketch, draw, and color something from each page in this book.  You can catch my progress on my Instagram thingamachingy at the bottom of this blog.


Digging Up Old Stuff...

I found an old picture of some work I did in college.  This is glue and pastel chalk on black paper.  I shooped it a bit with PicMonkey but didn't change much of the line or context details.  Its nice to draw once in a while from a dark base layer.  It can give the impression of  BIGGER or more organic space.  Here is a haiku to reflect on this point:

black is the new blank  
deep, dark, immemorial
welcome beginnings

Waking Up From a Coma

Its been over 6 months since I've posted any new art work on my blog.  I need to figure out if this is the domain name I really want.  I reorganizeed it a little bit and added widgets from my newly formed store on Zazzle called ODDIENCE.  Some of my drawings will be featured on T-shirts as well as any new memes I want to exploit.  If you scroll down you can see that I added my Instagram SnapWidget so you can find out what my latest posts are without logging into Facebook.  Keep coming back for new images, -- mostly of rough sketches but you may get some photos of social situations.

 I have added more ads but aim to drown them out with original content.  I am adding some recommended products to explore which are relevant (I think) to my posts and I am glad I can choose which products to feature.

I looked over a reading list of high school English and picked out some literature that I will be making monographs/ cover art for.  These include The Declaration of Independence, works by Edgar Alan Poe, and Martin Luther King Jr.  Most recently I completed one for The Interlopers by Saki.  http://dominic-pangelinan.artistwebsites.com/featured/interlopers-dominic-pangelinan.html  I try not to spoil the story but keep a degree of ambiguity with the use of details in the story.
