OKAT's Faves

4th portrait from the collection “Women of the word”

Drawn on a napkin, but missed the submission deadline due to a mistake in timezone calculation...

Playing with some experimental media while drawing from life with my students last spring. Gearing up for new sessions in a couple weeks.

Here we have some very fancy European history folks, a creature that might be a dummy, and Harry Potter as a nervous waiter who can't remember if you got diet or regular soda. Because, let's face it, Harry was never THAT good at magic.

Sometimes I just start throwing lines on top of lines. Today was such a day, fusing, intermingling, and vomiting lines up onto the page. (I originally titled this "Dreams in Digital" but then I was like "no one has heard Orgy's second album but you. Please abandon this late-1990s alt-rock persona. Live in the now.")

I have been participating in Lauren Hom’s #HOMwork challenges via Instagram. This weeks challenge was to draw the same letter 16 ways. I drew cats instead. I may come back to the whole lettering thing at some point!

This sketchbook spread comes with a free tea review. (I'm also a Sororitea Sister. That's a real thing. Feel free to look it up.) My favorite feature is Edgar Allan Poe in the lower right, though.

Mashup of geometric patterns and some organic shapes.

​Sketching for a new illustration with my Osprey Pens Milano fountain pen.

Nerded out at the Kennedy Space Center last summer. Here are a few of the sketches.

My phone bill arrived.

This drawing is from the '1 drawing a day challenge'. My work usually incorporates my signature little bird.

This image was created to be a limited print to go along with my new book, 10 Years of Daily Drawings.

Ink straight on Cardboard. More Graffiti-esque writing fun :)
