The ULTIMATE Grace Face! (Grace Helbig digital painting)


Digital paintings are one of the most time consuming hobbies of mine, especially when they turn out this good! I'm a huge fan of Grace, and spent extra time on the details to make this pop just like a photo! She's a big inspiration to many and a joy to watch! The best part is her career is just getting started, as I think she has an even brighter future ahead! I absolutely love drawing hair more than anything, (which makes sense seeing I began my digital painting career drawing dogs!), and swooping around Grace's hair for this painting was a lot of fun. The toughest part of this painting was the teeth, which took so long I edited out most of the process, but it wasn't looking pretty at first (lol)! For the future, I think I will continue to do more "portrait" style digital paintings, rather than add new objects in the painting (ex. JennaMarbles dangling keys or sxePhil's abs) because they are a lot simpler to create and have a more realistic end result. Overall, this is one of my best, and I honestly hope Grace sees it and likes it because I adore her! I hope you all like it too!

What If... courtneypants was a cartoon!?

 
If courtneypants had her own cartoon, it would be a world filled with unicorns, rainbows, and kettle-corn! In this video, I draw Courtney as a happy unicorn! Its part of a new series of videos I'll be doing that answer the question "What If...", and Im ready to take any suggestions you'd like to see! So far my favorite user idea is "What if Charles and Alli Trippy had a baby?"- I'll be photo-shopping that in the future- sounds fun! haha

Anywho, back to Courtney- She displays her charming personality and humor in her daily vlogs and cooking adventures, and has a unique fashion sense you can't help but love! Courtney not only spreads unicorn awareness, but she cares about other important issues too and remains a great role model for girls everywhere.
 As some of you may know, she is currently running for a King of The Web, and theres only 1 day left to vote! (http://kingofweb.com/users/courtneypants) After all the drama and stress the competition has caused for her, a cute/creepy video is the best I could do to help cheer her up! You can help cheer her up too by voting as much as you can, as she says we need a "unicorn miracle" to win! Hope you all like this video and keep the ideas coming for the "What If..." series!

Philip DeFranco at MUSCLE Beach! (digital painting)


The best thing about creating paintings is using your imagination. As you can see, my imagination of YouTube star "sxePhil" is completely accurate. (haha)
I originally imagined a more serious painting as a tribute to him, but the thought of summer nearby, and knowing Phil's sense of humor, this painting quickly took a silly turn! On a serious note, I have so much respect for him and all he has accomplished. He's been a real presence on YouTube for years now, and seeing him grow himself into a company, with an entire DeFranco Nation of loyal viewers, has been so inspiring. His videos have evolved so much throughout the years, from telling jokes standing against a wall in his bedroom, to creating an entire news show. Seeing him and LinzLoves (she'll always be bravesgirl15 to me) then and now- my how the times have changed! I hope Lindsay enjoys this painting, as well as all of you! Also, a big congratulations to Phil for all his continued success!
