I intended to do quick little spot illustrations for Inktober this year, but nooooooo! Now Jimmy is drowning in digital ink and lots of doodle details. This was way too much fun to go simple. I also included the original sketch this time.

One of my favourite quotes from Nat King Cole, Nature Boy...

Here's the final color illustration created for Osprey Pens featuring the Osprey Pen Factory. It was drawn with the same fountain pen there on the right... An Osprey Milano 5.5 Flexpert Hourglass nib. Great pen! Colored in Photoshop.

A lot of times my pens take over, spilling out the inside of my brain onto the paper. Thankfully, it's not as gross as it sounds.

I used a Platinum Preppy fountain pen for this. I like how it makes me kinda happy looking at it haha. I made this into digital form ( made it a little happier with more smiley faces) and put it on my Redbubble and TeePublic.

Armageddon. After the bombs explode. Chaos ensues. Random energy streams colliding. Beauty from ashes. Capturing one moment in time. Dollar store markers on 9" x 12" dollar store paper.

A quote by Wilhelm Busch, a famous German writer. "When you´re angry, count to four. If that does´t help, EXPLODE!"

I never do color, but I decided what the heck, it cant be too hard. Turns out it's pretty hard.

Yesterday, I was drawing during the Metropolitan Opera's daily streaming. My husband, Mike came by and looked dumbfounded. "Samson and Delilah inspired THIS subject matter?" Walked off shaking his head. We have a good laugh!
