animal

"More of the usual, please!"

ABCs and sharkeys.

Needed a mini-breather after a busy spell! Good to be back at it. :)

Blackout poetry time!

Found a tidbit in the novel Grendel by John Gardner that got my creative juices stirring... :-)

*hisses*

Enlightenment works in mysterious ways.

Pen and splash of watercolor from a series of postcards I sell https://davidmeehanart.blogspot.com/p/y.html

Pencil drawing of a rabbit.

Ballpoint and white ink on found paper.

Binturong, a fluffy animal with even fluffier ears. Really mysterious if you ask me. I made a small comic of this, you can see more on Instagram. On a more serious note, binturongs are fascinating and also a vulnerable species, with a decreasing population (acording to the IUCN redlist). You can learn more about them through @abconservation. :.

Drawn in Procreate

Finally finished this big drawing

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?

A close friend recently lost their family pet, Joey. As a tribute gift, I did his portrait. I usually just draw people, so this presented quite the challenge for me. I have never attempted to draw animals/pets. Bic4 Ballpoint Pen, Sanrio Novelty 10 Colour Ballpoint Pen on Archival 8.5" x 11" paper

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!

Sketching these two dogs in my sketchbook by pen and ink.

Painting mini things while waiting for other things to dry.

Playing with an unconventional color palette

Quick watercolour sketch.

I believe there may be a better way to get children excited about animals

I am interested in connection between a human and an animal. This unique, individual emotional, almost telepathic connection that is so abstract that only art could possible be bale to materialize it . ..like another different universe...

Finally something new and fresh, again it was my first time to draw an animal with fur, which seemed always so difficult thing for me and still is, but now I'm not afraid of it anymore.

Drew this for a professor that mentored me on my first research paper! You can also find me on facebook www.facebook.com/sonialaiart for WIP and updates!

Finally finished! This project took many long hours (about 8-9) and reduced my brand new 6B pencil to nothing but a tiny stub... “Black Gold” is done in graphite on 80 lb drawing paper. If you are interested in prints please contact me via my website.
