Ratties

Sorry I haven't posted in a while: It's my last term before graduation and on top of cleaning up and refining my body of work, I have an internship, a game development team and my job all wanting my attention.

Here's something I did as a warm-up this weekend. My fiance's friend's rats passed away recently. We  rat-sat them for a week last year and they were the sweetest little boogers ever. So I made her a little painting of them to memorialize the two.

(While the ink/paint was drying, I doodled a couple of other things on the final sketch page, as you can see).

Leggy Lady

Watercolor painting pulled from a sketch done during a costumed figure drawing class.

Peacocks and Butts

A painting I did for a friend's birthday. Got it done on time, mailed it out a month late. AH WELL. He finally got it so I can finally post it.

Some of the subtlety got lost in the scanning. I really wanted to play around with bright colors. He likes artistic nudes. He's also into bohemian/punky girls. So I gave him a punky lady with a sassy bird that has an obscenity in the name.

I wanted to accent her nudity and virility so I added extra pink and shine to her more ample features- the features guys tend to like the most.

Enjoy your bird and butt. Very important combination, those two.

Gift for the Grandparents

Christmas painting for my grandparents. I'm pretty sure they don't know this blog exists so I'm posting it here because I SWEAR I'm not just sitting around picking the lint from my toes.

This is one of 8 paintings due within the next two weeks. 0.o

The gold is gold gel pen. OH MAN I LOVE THIS PEN. Gunna be gold and silver on EVERYTHING.
