Color Study and some other things

This is me figuring out values and colors for the Jack and the Beanstalk painting. It's still not right... I might make Jacke/the rat yellow instead of red, and the stalk a little less saturated.


And here is Poison Ivy painted in green because I was trying to figure out the green I wanted to use and she was a good test subject.


And finally, some doodles. Hooray doodles! Some of these are going to be bigger projects, I'm just scoping out the feel for them.


LOOOVE IS IN THE AIIIIIIRR. Also, I made friends with a bee.

Smoking Frog in Technicolor

Ok the technicolor bit is a lie.


So these new watercolors are lovely in that they are so vibrant and bright. But I am experimenting with ways to knock their intensity down since the vibrancies all start battling each other for attention in a piece. Even when I mix a grey, it's a very intense grey. So I'm adding little bits of gouache to them to try to fade them out a bit. It seems to be working ok so far.

Ruined two color studies just playing round with it for my final Jack and the Beanstalk illustration. Going to do a few more tonight hopefully with better results!

Vegetarians are Sexy


One day I'll have the guts to be Ivy for Halloween.

Anyways, just doodling last night, going to watercolor this at some point. The pose needs to be more dynamic... meh.

Kitty Love and a Smoking Toad

Couple of thingies I doodled in class. Will bring them to a more finished state tonight if I have time. Cat love might become a sticker or card.
