Personal project to draw 100 pups.

This is my first attempt at using India Ink. Couldn’t help but get painterly with it. Looking for to more practice!

Personal project to draw 100 pups.

I painted during the Chinese New Year of the Rooster. In that year, my daughter was born.

Personal project to draw 100 pups.

I took an hour or two and drew some owls while watching the 7th Harry Potter movie. The black (it's actually dark purple) ink is in a Platinum Preppy refillable marker (I SWEAR BY THESE -- you just need the ONE and can keep putting ink in it) (https://www.gouletpens.com/collections/other-writing-instruments/products/platinum-preppy-refillable-marker-black?variant=11884751487019) and the green is in an extra-fine Lamy Al-Star (https://www.gouletpens.com/products/lamy-al-star-fountain-pen-bluegreen?variant=11884855885867).

I came across these Sepia Fine Liners! Had so much fun experimenting with them. Looking forward to creating some more images with these.

Present for a friend :) Flamingo painted with acrylic on a Kraft paper notebook.

A drawing which required some sharpening of a mechanical pencil. Just to get that needle-sharp drawing tool. I'm not the only one doing this, right?

Pastels and lots of color

Watercolor rendition of Reverend Run, my sister-in-law’s cat.

I really liked the style that I used for one of the most recent labels I did for @abominationbrewingco and @snitzcreekbrewery so I decided to mess with it a bit more. Just a quick thing. I want to draw more animals in this style. This is for me, and my wife, and my daughter. Stay strong. This is for everyone. This is for you. Stay strong. No matter what you do on a day to day basis or what you go through. You are a strong person.

Wild horses!

Rooster sketch! Rise and shine, it's Saturday!

Painting mini things while waiting for other things to dry.

I drew, I collaged, I pasted and just arted in general. Times are good!

A messy little graphite sketch...

Drawing is coming along. Next post will be the finished product... hopefully haha.

butterflies # ????? : two holly blues. This was a hard one and worthy of an art block with top and bottom wings distinguishing the species, composition and pose was almost impossible. Cue two of the Holly Blues! :)
