In Which the Divagation Store reaches the 900 posts Milestone! Reflection on Why...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this present post! How are you today, this new week? It should be the last one for February, quite soothing that it will end on a Sunday as well, given it started on a Sunday, too! As for me, I did sleep quite a bit yesterday, but I cannot complain of not being a productive day, given I finished reading the biography of Madame de Pompadour, written by Nancy Mitford. Quite a good one, and in fact, I would say is a great one! What a remarkable lady she was, the great patronesse of Rococo, though she sensed a move in France towards a more neoclassical direction, and overall set the sails on the direction of the style of the next era, the one called Louis XVI style, though in truth it was the queen Marie Antoinette who truly set the tone. I like this topic, and I love her majesty. Though the late rococo she preferred was hinted with an antique tint, it was not the more sober neoclassical of the 1790's and the Napoleonic era.

In which we have Kyle and the fish!

Hello everyone! Good afternoon and I wish you the best! How are you today and how are things going? I do hope they are doing okay, and things are fine! As for me, this week was a productive one, I made some drawings, and I progressed on my Photoshop course, which is going quite alright, though Photoshop is quite a massive tool with so many directions it can go! Wow, just crazy! I do am on the learning curve for the software and I'm quite enjoying it! How is the weather? Here it is quite nice, very cozy, truly winter time, not like Winter Wonderland of Christmas time, BUT you get the spirit! Today I'm also live on the stream hanging out with my friends, which is super awesome. Well, I would like to bring some stuff today for you guys! So let's jump into it!!!!


I found this on Pinterest today! It is a Persian ceramic tile, quite a lovely one, and it's quite suited me today, as on my book how to draw Inky Wonderlands I started officially the ocean set! I'm so happy! I started by drawing fishes out of the paper, I was kinda expecting getting a new sketchbook today, BUT it turns out the supermarket doesn't have them, bummer, let me tell you, so instead I decided to add some life to this new fanart I made for Kyle, you know, from Door Monster, I'm very fond of Kyle, he is awesome and I'm constantly portraying him in my drawings, because I'm very foind of his face, it is one that deserves to be drawn! Well, here it is the drawing!


This one has a nautical theme and it's a bit surreal, with the fish floating and the boat pajamas he's wearing, as well as his purple robe, that I portrayed on another drawing, that I should post right now!


So this is the purple robe making another appearance, and it's one of my first full body drawings, or almost full body, since 2012! I guess I got everything in order , which is a good thing! Like I said, Kyle is awesome, and Door Monster is awesome as well! This first drawing was made when I was still on the Garden chapter of the book, now, as I mentioned, I'm working with the ocean now, with water and such! Hopefully it will be a lot of nice new things for me to do! So yea, I needed a sketchbook, and decided to just draw them on the fanart, giving it more personality! I also made other drawings today but I just wanted to share those with you guys for now, leaving the others for another moment! Thank you for being here, means a lot! See you all on the next post soon!
