A Scene from Exodus Chibi Work in Process
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
This another one of my cute Chibi things. It features Moses being chosen by God to liberate the Jews. I chose to depict Moses with horns because of a cool statue I saw when I was in High School. The statue was called the Well of Moses. It showed a transition from the stylized medieval styles, to a more realistic depiction. The Moses character hard horns, and I thought they looked cool. It is for this reason that I gave my Moses horns. The other thing I thought a bit was to how to do the 7 plagues.
They are not the prettiest of stories that the Bible has to offer. It is for this reason that I skipped over them. I just illustrated them as 7 different frogs. Each one represented a different plague. For the frog designs, I chose 7 different looking chibis. As of now, I have been thinking of new drawings to make and the like to vary the posts a bit. I am not too much in the mood to talk about this or that. The weekend is ever so boring sometimes. I wish I had something interesting to say, but nothing comes to mind. I think I am going to draw for a bit instead.
As of now, I have been working on editing my short stories. I am going to publish them soon, so I wanted to give them a final polish. Most people think that the editor is the person who is in charge of fixing all your little mistake. It works better if the author is the one who does all the polishing. If you leave it to another, then the sense of the sentence will be altered. Who knows that other changes they might make to your work? Thinking it a bit, I have decided to remove a couple of my bizarre stories. Not all of them can be golden, and some I just consider to be complete gibberish. This is all in the woodworks, and it would make my short story book a tad shorter.
Then again, those books tend to be novella length. They are rarely longer than 30,000 words. I have some other stories that are more or less complete, and sound serious. I think I will skip some of the early works, and then just focus on the new stuff. It is rare to just produce 100 percent perfection. Even some of those, I just cringe when I read them. Well, it is decided then. In addition to unpublished short stories, I have a couple of poems I never bothered to digitize. They are all stored in my closet. I should look through them again, just to make certain. Well, let us just move right along, shall we. The drawing was made with Strathmore paper, and the ink is from a Sakura Pigma Micron set. I hope you find this little bit of gibberish useful.
