Drawing Prompt Submission

Fun with gouache! While I was painting this, I learned that "scumble"/"scumbling" are words used to describe the action of dry brush painting, so my detective's name is Scumbles.

Marker, gel pen and digital. Just my own character!

Mixed media collage in progress.

Graphite drawing in a Moleskine notebook - illustration for Grimm's fairy tale. I'm posting both the raw graphite version and the one I painted in Photoshop b/c I never know which I end up liking better!

A little exercise in my sketchbook to create a non-narrative comic. Just graphite, digitally colored.

Illustration for a coloring book I'm working on.

Lineart for my cheeseburger coloring book in the works

Started as the weekly prompt, but I kinda wandered off track. So instead of drawing yin and yang in opposing colors like I sat down to do, the B-Team happened in secondary colors!

Digital painting

Mixed media (pretty much every type of pen/marker I have is in these somewhere). Recovering from surgery last month, slowly learning to sit upright again, thinking about flowers. :)

gouache painting of spring bulbs using spring colors and a limited palette. Gouache is so fun!

A cafe that makes only baked goods with berries, staffed only by bears. Mostly marker, with felt tip pen and a little finishing in Photoshop.

Sketchbook page inspired by a Midsummer Night's Dream, with Titania and the unnamed Boy. Markers n' pens.

Started as a doodle while I was listening to a podcast on the history of gin! Just graphite.
