This is a pen and ink of my mother from a photo taken this October. No pencil outline and two hours with a .005 micron pen.

A quick sketch on a rainy day.

A Rottweiler. My favourite breed, and many good companions through my childhood.

Pen and Ink on construction paper with some colored pencil.

A quick watercolor that helped me play around with colors and appreciate the nature.

Íde ôu vá pôr lá ôu alli. Go thither. "English as She is Spoke" is a delightful example of incompetence and bad judgement. Jose da Fonseca and Pedro Carolina set out to write a Portuegese-English phrasebook. The only problem was that they didn't speak any English. They did know some French and armed with French-English phrasebook, dictionaries and enthusiasm they brought forth this phrasebook. Mark Twain was an early admirer of this book. "Nobody can add to the absurdity of this book, nobody can imitate it successfully, nobody can hope to produce its fellow; it is perfect, it must and will stand alone: its immortality is secure." #dailydrawing #englishassheisspoke #silliness

Art for the Upcoming project : The Bard and the Plague ...

Learning digital art

Learning to Leap is a shout out to anyone who needs a little courage to make that final leap. We've all been there, and we can all use a little whimsical inspiration in our lives.

Black and white, graphite (pencil) drawing. (This is actually the third rendering of this particular image [the profile, specifically, another favorite]. The background differs for each rendering.)

I feel like I haven't made any actual art in a while, let alone actually said anything about anything. It's been a long week, in both good and bad ways. First off, I was accepted into college, and then (for lack of better words) I accepted my acceptance to that school (I'm officially a Blue Demon!). Gymnastics is shut down, which I feared would happen, due to the rising cases in IL. It'll be closed at least until after the holidays, which scares me, but it is what it is (I wish people would just follow guidelines and wear masks)... I've been frustrated lately, mostly artistically. I go through times where I'm not satisfied with anything, nothing is good enough but all I want to do is create. There are a few larger projects I've been working on in the background, two for school and one personal. The personal one I haven't had much time to work on, but I'm hoping I will over the next few days (since I'm on break.) So yep. Lots of moving parts right now. Anyway, I hope everyone has a safe Thanksgiving!

Scene from Mark Twain's novel "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"

This is a doodly portrait of Pennywise from the movie, IT. I hope I captured the look of the character.

Acrylic on canvas- "The Clinging Death" from Jack London's "White Fang"

Looking at an interestring perspective that changes ones point of view

Where is buddy hiding? The Inktober prompt word here was 'hide' and it was fun to illustrate kitty looking for buddy, although I realized I made kitty really large! Check out the rest of my completed Inktober posts on IG: @dittofunkysketch123 :D

A Kingfisher in mid-quack, mid-honk... Whatever noise Kingfishers emit ;-)

This is the unframed version of this 54"×46" collage. Can you find the Goonies?

Zombie clown with deep space and black water for eyes. Brains exposed and theres more than birds pecking away at those delicious brains of his.

Krita, Digital.

I finally attempted to do a drawing completely in ballpoint pen (I faced my fears of messing up). Thank you to my friend for donating their face to this cause, very much appreciated. The drawing isn't 100% accurate, I think we can all agree on that, but a decent first try.
