‘Its-Been-Awhile’ Art Stream

For months I’ve been struggling with my livestream software and wifi issues. I can’t guarantee a clear stream but I’m pretty sure I’ve solved the problem...

I’ll be streaming on Twitch at 2pm EST.

A casual stream and might take a few sketch requests from whoever decides to join.

For a few weeks now, I’ve been dealing with severe art-block, so hopefully this little casual session might spark some energy back into my creative drive. It happens to all of us artists, and we need to listen to our bodies and rest.

But I’m hoping this little stream will work. Join me if you like!

Art stream session is finished!! Made a colored sketch requested by EldritchKeys, of their Basara OC: Munezane! Such a cool design! I loved coloring her hair!

Also sketched the REAL poster boy of Basara: Katakura Kojuroooooo!!!!

Thanks to everyone who joined in my art stream! Had a nice time chatting and sketching. Keep being creative!!

Stream-?

I’m itching to do an art stream today!! There was requests to show some of the tools and tips for using CSP. I’m happy to share what little I’ve learned so far with this program.

I was thinking maybe 4pm EST...but that might be too early for some.

Thanks for joining the stream!! Here’s a Yoshitane WIP to make up for the lack of finished drawings this go round! I enjoyed sharing my tips and tricks! Keep drawing and being creative!! Until the next stream!

Question time~!! Usagi is planning to do more art streams soon, but I’m not sure which day works best for my followers to join?!

Recently, I’ve been streaming on Friday evenings. And I can’t stream on Wednesdays, but If there’s another afternoon/evening that works better, please let me know! I really want to make sure my art streams are at the best time for my followers to watch!

Thanks for joining my art stream!! It was fun demonstrating how to draw Japanese kimono and armor. I hope it was educational and helpful! Here are a couple of links to the reference websites I mentioned! They’re a great resource to historical Japanese costume and kimono design!

The Costume Museum - Reference for Historical Costume from Early Japan to Meiji Period Japan - Click on #3 for Sengoku Jidai

Immortal Geisha Wiki Page - Resource for Kimono Parts, How to Wear Kimono, and Motif Collections - One of THE BEST Kimono Knowledge Resources I have found!!

There are so many kimono blogs I could reference too, but I may leave that for another post.

OK guys, time to go draw all the kimono!!!!
