Mixed Media on canvas. Silver is shinier than the picture can show.

Snow has melted where I am, and it’s getting warmer.. Spring is coming!! Which reminded me of a birthday card I made before. It’s based on a Chiikawa pin I found online, idk if it’s sold outside Japan.. Colored pencils and markers.

Acrylic on paper. Playing around with palette knives.

I’m thinking about the ground around the tree. Maybe adding a lot more detail, or just a little more in green and yellow shades?

Mesoamerican Victorian gent in watercolor and carbon pencil

Quick sketch based on a vintage mugshot. Wondering what she did to get arrested.

A quick study of a ghost of a king from Macbeth.

Sketch of this tree was posted yesterday by me

I used to post occasionally from lemme.ee (F) & I finally got around to making a new account.

She had a hiccup. This one’s serious. Blume has to get rid of everything inside her dense alien body or else she gets her hiccups. Curls up in a ball to fill in the hole she made.

After drying for about 6 months, I applied a matte finish on this, and now finally got it framed after several delays. The nice part in oil painting is that it’s not a hurried pursuit.

Instructor went over some basics, we sketched, then he did an oil painting in class from a scene he previously sketched with a single color on oil paint.

This is my attempt at a prompt “pretend.” I was thinking of mimicry in the animal kingdom. In the end, it turned out to be more challenging than expected to draw the owl in the tree hollow, where it almost blends in with the tree and is barely recognizable in nature. Oh well, you rise to the challenge 🙂

my second time ever painting “Realistic” I love love how he turned out!

I haven’t painted in forever, so this one feels extra special. Like sunshine after a storm.

Group source question: This is the pencil rough for an owlbear drawing. It has three elements. The owl bear. The scroll. The weapons. I’m not sold on the weapons. But I know it definitely needs another element. Replace the weapons with something else? Add another element? Amplify the scroll? What would you do?

Painted this on my phone over the last several days, whenever I get a moment or two.

Pencil on paper Taking an art class tomorrow at a nearby forest preserve, I think it’s sketching outside for watercoloring. This is practice

Lord Soth. I’m 32 years clean from D&D but I still appreciate the good times.

I decided to use a cosplayer as the reference for this. I had a lot of fun painting it. So many challenging materials.

There is this little sentence in Peter Pan that always had me. Tinker Bell gets the help of some “street fairies” to help get rid of Wendy. There is no description of street fairies. There are no streets in Neverland.

Have run across this guy in several stories over the past year and am intrigued by his grift and scumbaggery.

staedler pigment pens (& pentel gel pen for the doodly spirals around the “frame")

I couldn’t get my brain to do what I wanted to draw. That happens when you are trying to create something that hasn’t existed before. So I thought “what if I drew something that already exists?” How close could I get to an absolutely recognizable work? Can I do it without messing it up? Can I do it without fixing the “errors” in the original that no one notices unless they are not right in the head?

Turns out the live model painting has been delayed until June. I need a pallet cleanser from all the pencil drawings. Found this reference and thought it was fantastic.

I didn’t quite like how the bottom turned out. I tried having brown for dirt against the sky, but it was too dark. Then I went over it with green and all the way down to the bottom of the page. That looked too solid and square, so I went over with some yellow. I’ll have to look at more pictures and videos to get this better. I’m really looking to do this so I can paint a tree in the foreground.
