OK this is it I'm done now :P This is inspired by the movie posters for 'Loving Vincent', Studio Ghibli films and a bit of Alice in Wonderland. Influenced a bit by the watercolour artist Thomas Schaller. Aiming for a kind of whimsical vibe. I would say I spend most of my time in my imagination than anything else - and trying to paint clouds because they are hard :P Painted with watercolour paint. Please feel free to critique it!

The dreamy quality of your pallet is so nice! The cool and warm colors work nicely together. I'm tempted to try and chase the rabbit across those clouds. Will they hold my weight? I'm heavier than a rabbit. I guess I won't know until I try!
STICKY GIFT (2021)
When moving sticky notes guides this young woman who strives for being an artist along with her swan helps her remind herself of who she is by going to the past, solving out mysteries before her birthday, 14th of June.
Hello! I'm Oliziette and this is my movie poster for a movie that will tell my story on how I become who I am.
It's an adventure, fantasy, action, a little bit comedy here and there, and mystery type of movie.
Why it's called Sticky Gift, like what's so special about the Stick Notes? Well, I use it a lot and it has saved me so much in my workplace and myself, not only as an artist, but MAINLY in my personal life.
I'm quite forgetful person, and i have to remind myself all the time.
Now, there was one time I made like a past > present > future thing. Being an artist has changed my views in life, but even so, I had to remind again to myself that it's okay to fail and to take a breath whenever I know I start to panic over mistakes, failures, and judgements. It helped me so much to get through all of the stories again that I had in the past and get me back to the present to change the future.
Also, Sticky Notes has become my friend at some point hehe.
The "Gift" one? Well, I'll leave the theories on you guya for the mysteries hehe~
(Actually.. it's kind of obvious though ahaha).
So enjoy this poster I made that shares about the journeys on how I got here, along with my two little companions: a swan, and my little Sticky Notes.
I had fun while making this, so I hope all of you had fun and are having fun making yours! Goodluck 😊
Love your color pallet and the soft glowing/star dust effect you've achieved. The Sticky Notes hovering and circling above your head is a great visual. I too have a bit of a forgetful streak and need the help of "paper memory." I don't use sticky notes but, I have a bunch of small scraps of paper about the same size I use for reminders. It's always fun to go back through them to read the notes and the small drawings I did.
Hi David, in many cases everything is bigger or overly emphasized with super heroes in regards to their anatomy to convey power, nobility, good/evil, etc. What aspect(s) of the human anatomy do you try to keep grounded in reality when drawing these idealized super-humans?
That's a great response! So, it sounds like a matter of finding the balance between reality and idealization in service of the character and the story being told. Using your artistic ability and knowledge to take some liberties to convey something about the character. Thanks, David!
Asked for help
I tried to keep this to 3 hours. I ended up having to break that into 2 sessions due to other obligations. You can see the rush in my rendering and placement of the eye closest to us. A trick I like is to overlay the reference with my own drawing to see the differences.
Some self-critique:
1 - My own viewing perspective distorted what I was putting down on the surface. The top half of the head widens due to the top half of the paper being further away from my eyes. I need to use a drawing board angled to place the surface perpendicular to my line of sight.
2 - Measure more.
3 - Look through/past things like the nose and other overlapping items when establishing the overall shape of the head.
4 - Less picky when getting the first shapes down. Then begin to refine.
5 - Measure more.

Hi @Kenneth Marc. Nice drawing! And especially good job with the nose. It feels very 3D.
Don´t forget, that the eyelids have thickness. By indicating a top plane for the bottom lid, and a bottom plane for the top lid, you´ll add a lot of three dimensionality to the drawing.

Hope this helps :)
