When I'm walking by the water
Splish splash me and you taking a bath
When I'm walking by the water
Come up through my toes, to my ankles, to my head to my soul
I'm blown away

Dave Matthews Band, "Lie in Our Graves"

Felt like drawing some feet, since I'm awful at drawing them. Plus it's always good to get some practice drawing water in, right? Lie in Our Graves has always reminded me of ARIA, and I've been meaning to draw something relating to it for a while.

Akari's feet were drawn freehand with 0.5mm mechanical pencil, lined with Neopiko Fineliners and coloured with Letraset & Copic markers on A4 marker paper. White ripples and touch-ups are white-out.

Akari & ARIA are property of Kozue Amano. Art is by me, inspired by "Lie In Our Graves" by Dave Matthews Band. Please don't steal/copy! :)

Wow very pretty!
Bad at feet? XD these are the most gorgeous feet I've ever seen~! lol Gorgeous feet XD

I love the coloring for the ripples.
Tip? I suggest you don't use white out, I hear it turns yellow after a while.
Acrylic paint works well ^__^-

Hehe thank you!
I guess I'm not too bad at feet from the bottom like this, probably because they have a more slender shape, but drawing feet on characters from the front or side or with shoes or anything is horrible :p they always turn out like stumps or fat rectangles or something. Awful awful. Need practice.

Really? It goes yellowish? Never happened to me, but I hope it doesn't o.o I only really use white-out cause it's portable (or at least moreso than paint) - I've got a tiny white-out pen in my pencilcase. That and I'm awful at painting, lol. But I might give it a try on something in the near future :)

You're welcome XD maybe I should try drawing them from this angle too then lol, I need practice too.

Its never happened to me either, I have white out too, but I've started to use my paint more.
I've seen white out turn yellow on some of my essays, maybe it has to do with how you store your art.

I could never imagine a foot as being something pretty - but you've proven me wrong. :) Nice work.

I support original creations and the inanimate carbon rod! :greenprobe:

Thank you :) personally I find hands and feet really expressive, even if they can both be pretty strange to look at. I'm glad you like!
