Experimenting with linocut techniques digitally...

Part of a personal project I'm working on right now, to experiment with new art styles and practice lettering skills by drawing animals. The color palette and symmetrical motifs in this one were inspired by the boats on Lake Xochimilco in Mexico, which is the last remaining place wild axolotls live.

Part of a personal project I'm working on right now, to experiment with unfamiliar art styles and practice lettering skills by drawing animals. This is my first foray into cubism-inspired artwork (definitely don't claim to be an expert on actual cubism)--it was way more fun than I expected! I think I'll be trying some more...

Experimenting with digital watercolor brushes.

The closest thing to my right was my new tamagotchi which I got for Christmas. It gave me the inspo to experiment with animation! I used the main colour of my tamagotchi for the base, pink. I am not one to use pink, I am all about the blue!! You can find the animation on my Ko-fi, Cheza Sengoku. or link to my post https://ko-fi.com/post/Tamagotchi-egg-hatching-animation-M4M6HG53S

Dabbling in something new and experimental(ish) because, why not?

Inspired by a friend of mine's passing remark, I got creative...

I've been separating out some floral arrangements and experimenting with colors.

One for all those Inktober folks out there! Rest assured, despite what the verses say here, you're as mad as march hares in the best way possible. :)

I needed inspiration and was lacking a title so, yeah...

Four Tet's good for my creativity, no doubt about it.

No idea where this title came from, but it works so...yeah. Also, new sketchbook time!

Ideas, ideas everywhere... *suddenly realises he needs to buy another sketchbook*

A little thanks to the works of Ariel Pink for this one. If you’re anything like I am, grooves like his always get you through your creative process

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

I wrote some words, cut them up and rearranged them. What else is new?

Crafted with some assistance from the Blackout Poetry Generator, developed by Max Kreminski.

The dark side is strong with this one again.

Something spontaneous(ish), as usual.

One for the blood moon.

Experimenting with my cats. Somehow this guy has one really big ear. I didn't even notice until I took his picture.

Goofing around with ink droppers and dogs. I was experimenting with this and he was the first one and I thought he looked fun.

Experiment on paper

Experimental fluorescent overlays

Large megadoodle sized about 4x4 feet in size on cardboard. It was a fun experiment. Sold it too!

Child portrait in graphite. It is never easy with graphite to get the density dark enough - graphite tends to be grey and glossy. This is my most successful attempt yet.

This one started off bad and ended good. It was quick sketch that I wasn't really happy with. I decided to keep going and experiment. I was able to let go and draw without thinking and caring as much. I usually struggle with overthinking and perfectionism, so this one felt like a win for me.

Drawn and colored by me, inspiration from a pause oc challenge on YouTube. Zayn is an escaped lab experiment with water elemental abilities. The cat on his shoulder is Raya, a stray that frequented the lab that he befriended. Zayn is a human with animalistic features and four eyes, marking him as unnatural. He is an original character, not based off of anything.

First attempt at engraving style pen drawing. Not bad for a first try, but significant room for improvement.
