In trying to improve my composition of the human form I am breaking it down to individual studies. I welcome your feedback!

On another planet the gravity is different and waves behave differently. Dragons skim over the chaotic oceans looking for prey fish.

Baby steps toward portraits! So I started with 4 different hair styles. Let me know what you think. Where do I need improvement?

Robots are weird. I am combining botober2021 and transmundane Tuesdays because that's the way I roll. https://www.instagram.com/p/CU-Xr9Og0Db/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

This artwork was made for Inktober 2020

This is my first attempt at doodling some trees and it most certainly was not an easy task. I hope as I practice that I will be able to draw more detail and a variety of trees. Special thanks to Jean Garro (@Gentoo201) for the inspiration with her awesome drawings! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ♥♥ Thanks girl!

Beginning. Dee LOVED hats. She made very elaborate hats for herself and her friends. https://www.instagram.com/p/CQgWEpMhF2Z/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Digital drawing of the mythical elemental

Beginning 15. The frog was hungry enough to eat a horse. And !by golly! he was going to try to do it. https://www.instagram.com/p/CPTXnC5B_s3/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

My very first colored pencil drawing!

Various trees doodles in tedious meetings

Mixed media drawing. The sky can spread oppressively across a flat landscape like the meadows of the midwestern United States. In this drawing I wanted to evoke that sense as a backdrop for a trio of Weirds, soothsayers of folklore.

That's the guardian of the mushroom garden

George the mouse found himself in a pickle. He had discovered the most perfect mushroom house at the end of an alligators nose. The trouble was the door was too small and he could not get inside...

Fun with pencil. I use a 9H pencil to carve images into the paper and then a B pencil to draw over them, giving the drawings the feeling of textures.

Result of drawing while being in love

I love doing pen work. Might do an entire children's book in this style. Maybe faded colours.

Close to a month ago, I had found out my design was selected for the Art Stop Program, and, yes, this is mainly what I've been working on since. I've never worked on a piece this large before, 72in x 24in, and I rarely make sketches of pieces before creating the final work. It's definitely a cool feeling to look at the finished board and see how the drawing actually came to life. (The Art Stop Program selects a handful of entered designs for the artists to create on a larger board, and these boards will then be inserted into bus stop benches around Niles, IL.) I can't wait to see the bench this will be in, and I'm so lucky I got to be part of the program.
