Perhaps?

Whales in space yet again, because why ever not?

Sharks went a-hauntin'...

Where did Monday go indeed...

...of a sort.

Sketchbook party.

Shark time again. :-)

Tidbits of things overheard in the pub earlier this week when I was short of inspiration = this.

My girlfriend's words inspired this one, for which I’m forever grateful! :-P :-D

Time and space and wizarding things.

New Washi tape time!

Named after a malapropism of my doing, one that makes my girlfriend snigger like mad it seems. :-P

A bit of art therapy from this time last week after an overheated and, at times, shit-tacular day at work = the best kind of therapy.

Before I got into digital painting, I was putting together digital collages. I love digital collages, but most of them are a bit too literal/pop art for me. No diss on pop art; I create a lot in that style. But, I wanted to make a smoother, more blended collage for my profile pic.

Yet more Washi tape has been acquired!

Taking a break from photo editing to get creative in other areas... Over the Beltane weekend, my girlfriend and I watched the British dub of Urusei Yatsura over on YouTube. Yes, I assure anyone not aware, such a thing exists and my word is it hilarious (but not for the easily offended! Oh and while, I'm here, may the 4th be with you :-)

Not sure if this what was meant for this weeks prompt, but I've been drawing a lot of eyes lately.

Was initially going to try coffee painting with this one, but that clearly wasn’t happening... Hence the mentioning of divorce here, it being my expectations being split from the reality this time around. Still, things worked out in the end!

An exercise in observation - quick sketch. I was told that if I made a drawing a day for 365 days, that in a year, I might have a couple nice drawings.

I’m no stranger to weird dreams, and last night’s one was no exception to the rule. The doodle alone may do things *some* form of justice...

When your girlfriend knows about your Washi tape obsession, and gifts you accordingly come Valentine's Day... Also, film logo inspiration!

Rainy days = a perfect excuse for a shedload of coffee and drawing to indulge in. :) Occurs to me I did one with the title “Laurel Weaver” close to four years ago. Not much else connects the two beyond the title or does it? I don’t know... Whatever the case, I fancied recycling and revisiting this idea somehow. Enjoy!

I do generally put pen (or some kind of tool), to paper (or some kind of surface), every day, but I'm really TRYING to do it purposefully in one singular location (journal). Here is a successful attempt from that particular day. I'm also super lazy, which means I never go up to my actual studio and only use what's out on my computer desk. (Including the "waste" page because I often like it as much/more.)

A doodle I did to work through some creative block I was having.

This alien was going to destroy earth but fell in love with cats.

He was aggressive.

Dinosaur doodling is the way of things today.

Was itching to play along with the “Draw Me A Robot” challenge for a while now! Not much I can say about this, pretty spontaneous to say the least... Definitely wanted to add some sort of low fidelity edge to things though.
