2B and Derwent colour pencil drawing of a Lanternfly. A pretty creature but kill it on sight.

Learning colored pencil from a book...not sure which one...

Pencil crayon and black fine tip marker. A scribbling job of an art piece. Done fast with colour applied intuitively and without planning.

I wanted to draw a crowned animal with a crest on top of its head. Originally , this was colored with colored pencils but I didn't like how it looked so I tried to save it by painting over it with acrylic paint.

More colored pencil silliness for the nieces

I am pretty sure I did this from a colored pencil how-to book.

Colored using three different mediums in Crayon, Colored Pencils and Watercolor Pencils.

Pen and colored pencil. I wanted to draw people with nature-themed hair, so I picked the petunia for her. The eyebrows may need some work.

This is part of a sequence inspired by @moonchildillustrations and her #moontoberweekends prompts (this one is apple!). This was fun, I want to start incorporating more animation/ sequences on what I create. I got inspired by my mother, when she was little she was scared of eating seeds because she thought they would grow out of her ears. With that in mind, have a great October!

Another progress photo for your viewing. Hopefully I'll have this finished soon, but I'm very much enjoying drawing this while listening to my records... (Feedback is very much welcome!)

I think I kind of cheated by adding a bit of yellow and gray, but I do like how it turned out. I usually don't make many pieces like this, and there wasn't much of a plan going into this. It was a bit refreshing to do this.

Here are some drawings of various utensils, courtesy of the madness of quarantine. I ended up giving each a name and a bit of a personality.

Sometimes chores seem overwhelming...

Playing with colored pencils this week. This is very loosely based on a photo....changed hair, eyes, and skin tones to suit my mood. Vintage Conte a Paris Criterium, Prismacolor Verithin, and Tombow Irojiten pencils.

A silly frog to end the month. Prismacolor pencils on a tinted pastel paper.

While investigating the secret hair files, one can encounter many things. Where does the flow go? Find out soon!

Drawing with colored pencils

Transmundane Prompt by Carson Ellis : an amphibian with buckled shoes, holding a cat.

This is the finished drawing. It took me about 6 hours over the course of two days. I decided to just lightly shade the background so my finger prints didn’t show so much. I was afraid that going darker would make the horse blend in too much. I’m happy with how it turned out! Done in charcoal, marker, colored pencil, and pencils.

Sorry about the lighting, but it’s still pretty clear. I decided against the rope in its mouth. I despise colored pencils and don’t really like how they look on most drawings. So I just tried to finish this as fast as I could.
