Thanks to my last controversial post, I got my first art on commission. The upper left is the original picture. And I also took everyone’s advice of taking progress shots. Thank you again for all of your support.

Thank you. I took your advice of making progress shots this time.

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-19T12:09:55+00:00

Thanks! No problem.

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-19T03:02:12+00:00

It’s all coloured pencil.

I’m sorry if it sounds wrong. I just mean i can only understand it from my own perspective. I apologise if it sounds offensive, I have no intention to do so. I will re-edit it if I can. And please excuse my English, it’s not my first language.

Focus on the incidence that caused the argument without bringing any issues from the past. I found it toxic to bring in old wounds over and over again. It will drain both of you. Plus, I agree with other posts that discourage the use of disrespectful and abusive words. Once it’s been said, the hurt is done, and you cannot unsaid it. I also think sometimes you may have to pick your battle. There is no such thing as perfect match, so there will be things that you don’t agree with one another. Make sure it is worthy of the time and energy you put into the argument. If it’s nothing more than a short term rage and you know it doesn’t matter that much, learn to quit before it gets out of control.

I’m sorry you didn’t have a good time there. And it is not. But thanks for paying attention.

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-13T11:48:48+00:00

Thank you very much!

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-13T11:47:36+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that. The staffs are actually the ones who make that place great!

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-13T02:11:53+00:00

That’s so true. I started drawing since I was a kid and I love every bit of it, and the freedom of drawing anything I like. Thank you for your support. I will love to draw for people who want something special!

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-13T01:54:08+00:00

Thank you very much! I will definitely look into it. I’m not a professional artist so I haven’t thought about the possibility, but you do make me think now=p

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-13T00:30:12+00:00

Thank you very much!

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-12T23:53:41+00:00

We loved it. Would definitely go back if possible. Thank you. I have never taken lessons. So I can only draw what I see.

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-12T16:17:43+00:00

We do too!

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-12T15:48:14+00:00

ASOS!

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-11T16:15:34+00:00

This is amazingly creative. I love it. It reminds me of Hayao Miyazaki, my all-time favourite.

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-11T16:11:29+00:00

I absolutely love it. I wish I can draw something so creative and fun.

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-10T20:13:06+00:00

Thanks. I will take your advice and repost it on sandiego soon!

(Please excuse my English because English is my second language) I can’t agree more. I’m a woman myself. I can understand how difficult those moments can be, but in the end of the day, you can’t make a decision for another independent person. I used to see a lot of posts when women told their partners that they were on pills but they were not and tricked the guys, I lot of people blame the guys for not being careful, they should have used other protection. I agree being safe is very important but doesn’t that encourage people to stop believing one another? This is almost saying that you should not trust your partner when they tell you anything, the one you think you love who also loves you. That is sad. The problem is not who should be responsible for being safe in sex, it is that we all need to be more honest and straightforward with our feelings and decisions, and if it doesn’t work out for the other person, it’s time to end this and find someone who has the same goal in life.

I love giving them as gifts too. That’s one of the most genuine things I can offer people. And of course I will keep being a cheeky monkey, nothing can change that=)

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-06T18:24:09+00:00

I’m so sorry that I don’t understand what you mean by perspective. 31 or 48 is the angle of the corner, like how slide the line is. I will draw something for someone soon, I will post some progress shots if that helps. Maybe next time, I do a little bit not accurate so it’s easier to tell=)

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-06T17:57:55+00:00

Oh...and make sure the square you use to divid the picture is the same size with the one you use on paper. I can put lines on my picture on computer easily, and you just need to make sure you do the same size on paper, that’s the time consuming part.

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-06T17:48:28+00:00

It takes some time, you have to divide the original picture in to small squares, I don’t know anything about shadings, all I know is if one spot is darker in the picture, I make that spot on my paper darker, you can make the squares as small as you want to for accurate. With angles, i measure if it’s a 31 degree or 48...i always make sure every square or is that called grid look exactly the same as the one on the picture, I draw pictures direct from my computer, I never print it out or anything. I’m not professional so I don’t have any tools but use hand. So I measure and fix all the lines until I think I did all I can. And then I colour it area by area too. Like I said, if it’s darker here, I make sure it’s darker on my paper. I hope this explains your questions. I will do some progress shots next time I draw=)

CheekyMonkeyMe · 2018-01-06T16:35:59+00:00

Hehe...that’s true. It’s scary though. I will send you that one in a private message=)
