I’m finally sharing my new self-portrait with y’all. This is the first artwork I’ve created in Procreate on my new iPad. It took me a while to get used to the program but I’m pretty happy with it. It’s been a while since my last post so I want to say thank you and welcome to all of my new followers! I appreciate ya! 😊 🔹 Buy me a coffee here: www.ko-fi.com/crystalcurie I appreciate all your support~ ☕️❤️ 🔹 #art #arts #commissionsopen #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #draw #drawing #doodle #sketch #dailysketch #sketchbook #illustrator #artwork #digitalart #selfportrait #character #selfie #pencil #pencildrawing #pencilsketch #instaart #traditionalart #originalartwork #instaartist #instadraw #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #artist #artists #crystalcurie https://www.instagram.com/p/CWwwyZOFv_Y/?utm_medium=tumblr
It’s been a tumultuous year so far to say the least, and I think we could all use the vibes Jewelia here is emanating right now. If you’ve been following me for a while, you may recognize this art format as my 100 Themes Challenge (See #Crystal_100TC if you’d like to see more related works). This piece took me the longest time to complete so far (at least 7 hours alone on the zentangle-like patterns) though here it is in all it’s glory. I finished it a while back, and I wish I’d shared it sooner ‘cause now I’m starting to see all my mistakes lol. Anyways, there’s no time like the present! Stay safe and sane~ ✌🏼⠀ P.S. See my Mandala Drawing story while you can for the WIP pics. I may take it down next week. 👀⠀ 🔹 ⠀ #art #arts #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #draw #drawing #doodle #sketch #dailysketch #sketchbook #illustrator #artwork #mandala #originalcharacter #characterdesign #pencil #pencildrawing #pencilsketch #instaart #traditionalart #digitalart #originalartwork #instaartist #instadraw #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #Crystal_100challenge #artist #CrystalCurie https://www.instagram.com/p/CKQNcApjn8P/?igshid=1czb4e0fnj5tt

I was reminded of this Halloween-themed challenge I made for myself 5 years ago and thought I’d attempt it again last minute. I’ll be drawing my OCs in Halloween outfits for (hopefully) the whole month. I would’ve posted this sooner but I’ve been feeling kinda icky lately (prob just the weather affecting me again) and like I said I thought of this last minute. If you use my prompt list, please use the hashtag #crystal_OAC2020 so I can see what you guys make. And feel free to tackle the prompts in any order you like. Enjoy~ 😊🍂🍁 🎃 https://www.instagram.com/p/CF3ZV2cDIbF/?igshid=14kn2a040jk91
I’ve been meaning to share some artwork that was made for me by friends. Here’s a piece my good friend @krazykat188 made for me for my birthday 2 years ago, featuring my characters. (Ik, I’m super late) She doesn’t post much but I love her art style and you guys should go check out her work. 😊 Thanks again Kat! 🔹 ⠀ #art #instaart #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #fanart #fanartfriday #artwork #ink #sketchbook #traditionalart #traditionalartwork #sketch #draw #drawing #comic #comicart #originalcharacter #characterdesign #pencil #coloredpencil #pencildrawing #pencilsketch #instaart #instaartist #instadraw #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artist #CrystaltheCC #crystalcurie (at Long Beach, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEuv5WiDAyG/?igshid=1b0ho3qbnobba
Starting a month-long Figure Drawing Challenge course, taught by Pencil Kings. I’m hoping I can stick to it and not “drop the ball” like I have with my other projects. This is my ‘before the challenge’ sketch. 🔹 #art #drawing #sketch #artwork #draw #artistsoninstagram #sketchbook #artoftheday #arts #sketching #pencildrawing #artists #artistsofinstagram #artistoninstagram #artofinstagram #drawingoftheday #pencilsketch #instadraw #sketchoftheday #artdaily #dailysketch #drawingsketch #sketchdaily #drawingchallenge #figuredrawing #pencilsketch #illustrator #artist #CrystaltheCC #CrystalCurie (at Long Beach, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEYUTjiDJ82/?igshid=12e95524ukyd
I haven’t drawn anything in forever. (4 months 😬) I’ve been really busy but it felt nice to draw for myself again. 😌 Inspired by some artists InkTober prompts. I hope to ink this soon.
Sketch I did while it was slow at work. Sorry I haven’t been posting at all lately. Life has been busy and crazy, and when it’s not, all I wanna do is sleep. 😴 🔹 #art #artsy #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #artwork #draw #sketch #doodle #sketchbook #illustrator #drawing #conceptart #character #characterdesign #pencil #pencildrawing #pencilsketch #instaart #traditionalart #originalartwork #instaartist #instadraw #artistsofinstagram #artist #CrystaltheCC
Hey all, it's been a while! I've been riding the roller coaster of life while I've been away. It's hard to believe that school is almost over again. Time just flies when you're busy. 🔹 Here's a peek at what I've been working on; it's the first thumbnail for my comic script. I like how the pod looks like an egg just waiting to hatch, much like a story just waiting to begin... (foreshadowing!) 😊 I hope you enjoy~ 🔹 #art #artsy #DailyArt #ArtoftheDay #artwork #draw #sketch #sketchbook #doodle #traditionalart #traditionalartwork #pencildrawing #pencilsketch #pencil #wip #workinprogress #originalartwork #instaart #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #artistsontumblr #artistsontwitter #artist #illustrator #instaartist #CrystaltheCC
(Nudity Warning. Just in case) Time is flying on by these days… Here’s some life drawing sketches I did for a Pencil Kings daily challenge last month. It was a nice exercise, though I’d like to brush up on my skills some more.

Here's the next sketch for my 100 Themes Challenge. There was a character in the middle, but I think I'm going to draw that part digitally because all the lines were starting to get visually confusing for me.⠀ 🔹⠀ I've been wanting to put more patterns and Zentangle elements in my work. I'm hoping this turns out good. 😊
Sorry for the lack of art guys! Who knew that the beginning of the year would be so busy? 😩 I'm trying to get back into a groove of drawing everyday, starting with yesterday's Cognitive Drawing exercise: draw a flexing man from memory (no references). How do y'all think I did? 🔹 Honestly I feel like I'm looking at one of my high school drawings. Not that bad, but not that great either. Let's see how much I learn with the next exercises yeah? 😁
Theme 7 is Memory and the sketch is a redrawing of a redrawing. I guess you could say that it's also a memory of a memory. 😆⠀ 🔹⠀ I decided to revisit a drawing in my sketchbook that was done earlier this year. I redrew a drawing of mine for a class project (because I was fond of it) and looking back on it now, I wasn't happy with how the guy's face came out when I first drew it. So I redrew his face, added some more heartwarming elements, and next, I'm going to add more ink to make it pop. 😊🎄⠀
Sketch for Theme 6 is done! I'm feelin' pretty good about it. Hope you enjoy~ 😊
