for the 8th of Juneforest today it's time to be colorful
For this day I decided to draw the fairy Briza who, while flying in the middle of the forest, found a beautiful and colorful flower that caught her attention
Inspired by my recent trip to Korea, which I intentionally went this season to catch the cherry/plum/peach blossoms. As I observed the zigzagness of the tree branches, I see in it the number of roads/mis-roads I had to take, as someone unfamiliar with the land, to get to a good bloom spot. Which kinda reminds me of life. I felt I just had to do this piece.
I MADE A NEW OC, NO CLUE WHATS HIS NAME IS BUT HE REALLY JUST...SEEMES SAD ALL THE TIME (made him during school cause my little brain can't pay attention in school)
Sketched while watching the Mariners get knocked out of playoff contention. Colored on the computer. I did a hue changing little animation with it if you check my Instagram. :)
Suppose that 'meaning' is a faint word scribbled on a wall in a dark room. The words that we use are often barriers that separate, then, our 'comprehension' from 'meaning.'
Let us suppose then that the light of the intention of a speaker is obscured by a 'word.' The angle and setup of that intention then, along with the angle and setup of the comprehension of the listener, can distort or disguise the true meaning of what the speaker is saying.
Of course, the angle and setup of these things can vary greatly, just as easily as the shadows that cover 'meaning' can vary. It would seem best, then, with this in mind, to communicate as transparently as possible and to avoid and/or to detect deceit whenever possible. Dishonesty and misdirection, whether deliberate or otherwise, in the speaker or in the listener, always risk shrouding 'meaning.'
When communicating earnestly, distraction can be dangerous. Shrewdness is recommended.
The form of Martial Arts introduced by Bruce Lee embraces `being formless’ as a central idea. Sharing this belief, my works do not start with an intention of what to make, but rather the process is to follow-through to what the works wish to become. In Jeet Kun To, the practice is to `be water’, to react and to blend. Instead of following the artist’s desire to direct the brush, I enhance, without an intention to change or render. The composition dropped from elsewhere as a message and is polished to shine.
Someone close to me is homesick for Brazil so I painted and printed this for them. I wanted the comp to be simple and its intentions obvious. I had fun with the hills and atmospheric perspective. This is not AI nor is any part of this AI.
I aimed to have the water look believable while painting a jellyfish with long flowing tentacles. Drawn digitally in Rebelle 6 w/very minimal effects. This is not AI nor is any part of this AI.
Snack Attack is what happens when you don't pay attention to attacks from above while riding hands free on your bike and eating your triple fried fries and ketchup. I actually saw this happen. From my series Bikes of Amsterdam.
"Avoidance: As the old saying goes, prevention is better than cure. One of the most effective ways to manage stress is to avoid it in the first place. This means identifying potential stressors and taking steps to eliminate or minimize them."

Drawing trees and other landscape elements was my daily routine for the last two months.
For two months, I've been developing my style.
It's essential to create consistently in one style for a long time. It's the way you get to know better:
- yourself,
- what you like,
- what you enjoy.

I just saw a circus tent and thought:Hmm I can make a demon oc out of it and behold!I didn't use the classic red and white colors mainly because I'm not a fan of red I did use blue however.I was going to give him circle eyes but then Fiore Pazzo (the flower demon has them) so I used different shaped eyes instead,one bigger than the other to emphasize his insanity.he and him have very similar personalities although cirko is a little smarter than him.both of them love collecting the souls of children the star demon (glistles) enjoys playing with children rather than to torment them.
A very kind, compassionate,and loving goo ghost blob who takes cares of Al's children when he's at work.she is huge (literally) she is around 7'2 making her one of the tallest ghosts.she has no arms or legs,she has tentacles and often uses them.she loves taking care of Osvald and Milada and would do anything for them.She is older than her being 43 and Al being 40.They eventually have feelings for each other and end up dating.my voice for her would be Patricia Belcher (Miss Dabney From Good Luck Charlie and Caroline from Bones)
Another illustration for today! This is a surreal illustration with beautiful tones and random things incorporated into a creative style drawing.
Available as a limited edition download of 20.
He's not easy to draw,I can draw Milada and Osvald with ease and the rest of the gang but somehow I'm really having trouble drawing Heyman himself especially his eyes.everytime I draw him is inconsistent.
I'm starting a new art challenge #whimsicalByMamaminia
Art challenges are an excellent way to stay motivated. They are great for creating consistently in one style.
I fell in love with gouache paintings with a whimsy touch when I discovered Ruth Wilshaw.
It's my first attempt at creating an illustration with a whimsical accent
