I chose this piece because I wanted to single out the circle or brown I think it’s important to get some Reputation from the fact that maybe it’s time to Enter a new chapter similar some of my recent paintings
This was originally done with ink and watercolor for the Red Book of Bashkortostan, I really like the look of classic botanical illustrations on brightly colored backgrounds :)
It's a worry when you have a chat with a child about dinosaurs and they say they should skateboard, but have their baseball cap turned backwards and have sunglasses on and only skate on one leg, cause I can see that straight in my mind and I couldn't resist making a little mascot logo design of a Diplodocus riding a skateboard. The only thing I couldn't work out is how to make him do the thumbs up sign, cause Diplodocus' don't have thumbs! Maybe I should go back to the drawing board with the thumb idea, but this was so much fun to get down and design. The kid loved it, so next time I go over to see her mum and dad it looks like I'll be doodling dinos doing all sorts of things!
Happy feast of St. John of the Cross, one of the doctors of the church. Well known for his work on the "Dark night of the Soul" which is different than "Spiritual Desolation" that St. Ignatius talks about. We all have our crosses to bear but we don't always see the fruit. It's a fitting day for me as I got a big cross today but with God's grace I can support it. Please pray for my healing of headaches and depression, they are really getting in the way. St. John of the Cross, pray for us.

Cutthroat - Leader of the Pirate Faction, and one of the most infamous of his time. Haven't made a good drawing of him in a while, this one turned out better than I expected.
The Caduceus (and Rod of Asclepius) a traditional symbol of healing shown with not just a rod but a Cross, the true symbol of healing. "And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert (and the Israelites were healed), so must the Son of man be lifted up:" - John 3:14

Girl takes her best friend for a sunset Bike Ride around a lake. Trying to create the same characters in multiple scenes. Would eventually like to illustrate my own kids book.
A drawing that took me forever XD I knew how I wanted the lighting, it just took me a long time to figure out how to make it a certain way. Mainly the yellow gradient+glow around the character, not the lighting actually on her. This request was asked by the lovely nabi_nalgae on Instagram and she wanted me to draw this pretty lady, her character Nabi!
