light bulb + leaf

today is a double post! here is my half-crappy light bulb. i did learn that it's very hard to just "sketch" something translucent. my second picture:

a friend gave me a chinese watercolor kit, and this is something i did to test everything out. i am no painter, but once i did this, i was like, i should go paint stuff! we'll see if i ever get around to doing it. though i am quite satisfied with this. yay!

do note that the original painting is significantly smaller :D
