My Art Journey

Layla Jioussy

I really like to sketch and make art. Art is calming. It feels great when I when I scribble on a paper and end up creating a funny Disney character. Art helps clear your mind. In this post, I want to share somethings about my journey in art.

Sometimes when I sketch, I watch these videos on YouTube for a reference, and they really help me, by teaching simple ways to create something cool. I love to sketch all kinds of things, but I think the things I like to sketch the most are Disney characters. Disney characters are just great, they are funny, usually have rounded ears and hands… which make them easier to draw then to have to corner and sharpen everything.

Something else I like to do is paint. I don’t paint as much as I sketch, but whenever I do paint, I don’t usually use a reference. I like to paint things my own way. One of my favorite things about painting is blending colors. When you blend colors, it creates something new, it also creates a new style that you can use in other things in life.
