Cartoon Drawings

-
I've still had so much trouble finding something decent to write about on here. I've been out job hunting a lot lately, trekking around the local area handing out CVs, and by the time I've gotten back home, I've been so tired that I just really haven't wanted to try to write anything, because that would involve brain work. Brain work isn't fun when you've got mahoooosive headaches. Plus, I have serious writer's block!

 But I really wanted to post something, so I thought I'd just do a simple one about the drawings I've done recently!
I used to do GCSE Art, back in the day, so now I have stages where I'll really fancy doing some drawing, and I'll sit and just start doodling, but then it'll turn into a piece that I spend ages getting right.

That happened last week - I was bored and really wanted to do some drawing, but I wanted to do something other than portrait-style sketches of people. So a friend of mine suggested that I draw Rainbow Dash from My Little Pony. I had to Google it, because I've never seen that show (I know, shame on me!), then after I'd drawn that, I started looking for pictures of cartoon characters that I could draw.

So here are the characters I've drawn, that I wanted to share with you!

1. Rainbow Dash
As I said, I haven't seen this show before, so I only had a basic idea of what the character would look like. But here's the outcome of my attempt!

















2. Dexter
After Rainbow Dash, I moved on to Cartoon Network characters, the first of which being Dexter, from Dexter's Laboratory!
















3. The Powerpuff Girls
The Powerpuff Girls is a show that I LOVED when I was a kid! (Okay, I still love it. I went to a superhero/villain themed fancy dress party as Bubbles.) Here's my drawing of Bubbles, Blossom and Buttercup!
















4. Johnny Bravo
Johnny Bravo is another CLASSIC Cartoon Network show. I couldn't not draw this guy!















5. Scooby-Doo
Everyone must know Scooby. Who doesn't know Scooby?!
















6. Tom & Jerry
The classic cat and mouse cartoon is one I still love to this day! Here are Tom and Jerry!















7. Phineas & Ferb. And Perry.
This is another show that I've never watched, I've only ever seen the adverts to it. (Please, don't hate me!) But I know that people I know like it, so I thought I'd give it a go! I know it's not from Cartoon Network, but let's not be prejudice, huh? I did what I could with the colours!
















And that's what I've got as the result of my drawing spree! Please, let me know what you think, it'll be good to get some feedback! *smiley face*

I'm going to try to do some more when I can, and maybe eventually collage them all together!

If you've got any suggestions of characters I could draw, go for it and let me know! I love a challenge!

There's 7 Things I Hate About... Jigsaw Puzzles

-

I spent most of my week off working on a jigsaw puzzle. It was a ‘Cat Lover’s Puzzle’ with different breeds of cats depicted on it. It’s worth remembering that, it’s going to be my point of reference throughout this. It was more challenging than I had thought, particularly because of some hiccups I came across on the first day. I was trying to use a cardboard box as my Puzzle Assembly Surface (that’s its actual name) because it was the only free solid surface I had in my room and it seemed more practical than the floor. However, I soon found it was just slightly too short and too narrow which irritated me more than it probably should have done. I didn’t realise it was possible to rage-quit a jigsaw puzzle, but there we are. I started a-fresh the following day – yes, on the floor – and while I was plodding along, I found myself compiling a list in my head of the most frustrating things about doing a jigsaw puzzle. I had originally planned to tweet about it but I didn’t think it would...

I can't deny that I'm a very emotional person. It's so obvious; it would be pointless even trying to deny it. In school, I was the cry-baby of the class. It really wouldn't take much to set me off, which is quite embarrassing to admit. I was the goody-two-shoes of the class too; I was never really told off properly, so I can't even blame it on that. Although, thinking about it, maybe that would have helped toughen me up a bit. I haven't exactly grown out of being that fuzzball of emotion, but it has adapted and is focused around slightly less trivial things. Thankfully I'm no longer of an age where I go all teary if I'm told I have to eat those spaghetti hoops in my school dinner, whether I like them or not. (Yes. I was that bad.) While I don't burst into tears at the smallest thing like I used to, I do still let things go to heart more than I should. To paraphrase McBusted: I'm just a sensitive girl.

My Ancestral Quest

History has always fascinated me, well, local history more than anything. I mean, it was sort of interesting to learn in school about the Romans and the Battle of Hastings and all those Roundheads, but when it came to the topics about things like the two World Wars, my curiosity would lie with the social aspects of it – what life was like for those on The Home Front and the effect it had on the local areas. Even outside of the classroom, I was always looking for pictures of what the local high street looked like years ago and wondering what the house I grew up in would have looked like when it was first built. As I’ve grown up, that interest has evolved, and of course the internet has helped massively. In recent years I’ve found old maps of where I lived which was positively mesmerising. Afterwards, I would be out walking with friends and then take great pride in pointing out that a particular street we were passing used to be the location of a football ground in the 1890s. It isn’...
