I drew this up pretty quickly on a whim. I don't know what the story behind this is, what either of those creatures are called, or who that lady is. All I know is that the snail creature should be voiced by Tom Hiddleston
One of two pictures I have doodled recently, based on The Lord of the Rings, and describing my alternating moods at present. Sheaffer tuckaway fountain pen, Hero blue black ink.
Sketching at the Academy (California Academy of Science) with my five year old. This was so fun. There was so much movement that he actually focused on his own sketchbook for long enough for me to get one in. Usually, he's done by the time I put the clips on my book! The Academy and all museums are closed again with SF preemptively joining the rest of the state in the extended stay at home order this past Sunday 12/6/2020. Grateful we got to go several times while it was open.
Another pouring piece. As always, started out going about it one way, and sure enough, it turned into a whole other thing. I like to think its meant to be. What do you think?
I haven't done a still life since highschool! I was finally motivated to make one after finding this black conch shell on the beach of Rimini. In the past I found one but it was broken, i feel like i've been on a healing journey and was delighted to find a complete full shell. In a way I took it as a sign of the healing graces God is pouring out on me. I also found the coral thing floating on the waves of the shore. I felt the presence of the divine through His creation that day. I picked up the other scallop shells and the red rock there too. The big snail shell I found outside the monastery, there are some big snails here! So yeah, I wasn't trying to be too precise in this still life but I wanted to jot down the idea and my thoughts from that day. Peace be with you all
Just decided to draw this girl with slime as hair.
My original character :)
Hope yall like it.
I'll continue drawing other artwork with her in it in the future.
Drawn in about 30 min for my Grandfather w/ Parkinson's Disease. He absolutely loves these majestic cats. What better than to have a resting one sitting next to you while resting yourself.
A quick sketch of the flannel bush in my garden as the sun was setting. I was going to replace it with a salvia munzii, but then the flannel bush bloomed.
Here's Kirby! Along with some of his usual cast of characters, Waddledee, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Waddledoo, Gordo, and Whispy Woods.
If a publishing company ever gets a license to make Nintendo comics, and if I am not involved in the Mario comic, then I would gladly take Kirby instead.
This was a bit of an experiment. I wanted a very graphic style without outlines but with lots of texture for that hand crafted look. I made it in Clip Studio Paint, mostly using my own custom brushes. At some point I will make my brushes available as a download for purchase.
Why is Whispy Woods floating in space? He's not. Never mind.
I can relate to this girl so much. She's wearing a fancy dress, at a fancy event, and she's got her sketchbook with her. That sounds like me, honestly.
Shadows follow but I will move on! I have PTSD, so I am tormented by my past. Anxious for what's behind me. But I won't let that stop me! I may have "Lead in my shoes" (Dutch "Lood in mijn schoenen"), sometimes feel empty while on other times I am red from anger, nothing will stop me moving on. There will be temporary throwbacks, progress is not linear, but I will get there. I won't drown in self-pity this time.
A new character portrait I’ve created. I’ve named her Melaina. Made with pencils, blackwing pencil, water soluble graphite by artgraf and a water soluble graphite crayon by lyra.
