Dragon Fever

I ran out of watercolors, and so now I'm working with watercolor pencils. I've never really used them before... they're kind of fun!!!

Back to translating complex 2D shape drawings into 5-step 3D turnarounds, whee.

Overcoming The Art Block

Took a lot of bad art to finally overcome my nasty art block. This Worfle (Art-block devouring creature) was the tail end of that crummy art streak:

So, fianlly I came up with some better concepts. And here are the inks (still rough with pencil lines) that I will be painting later.

I also have school things I'll be posting at some point. Huzzah!

Sick

I got hit with something nasty and spent all day yesterday in bed fighting a fever and drinking tea. Here is the art I did yesterday in between naps and whining about my situation. It pretty accurately describes how I felt.

Still feeling pretty sore but am up and about and back to participating in the world.

A little Macabre

Guess I was in the Halloween mood...

Norman

This story came to me in the shower, and I'm definitely going to finish writing it and illustrate it and try to get it published some day. But anyways, this me fleshing out the main character- Norman. Poor Norman is a major klutz.

School starts tomorrow. I'm excited!

Coffee Break

A doodle I did while having a coffee outside yesterday. Had a really busy day, I didn't have enough time to do much more than play around with some paint.

Half-Finished Things and Invisible Things

I've got four things I'm trying to finish for friends before the end of the weekend (school starts again on Monday!). In between,  of course,  I do warm-ups and practice.  Here are some watercolor warm-ups.

The watercolors I'm using are really cheap cake-things and I think they may actually be part-gouache. They aren't as transparent as they should be. But real watercolors are sooo expensiiive! (Maybe I should set up on the street with the homeless and a big sign "Need $$ for Paints!" )

Here are some dragons I'm going to paint today.

They are fat ad ugly and I love them.

An this next thing originated from a conversation about women in martial arts... and what most men expect when you say those words together. Also, a little derivative from the ridiculousness of Japanese anime characters.

Yeah.
