Sketch: Christmas Crows

That's "Merry Christmas to you charming human folk" in Southern Crow.

3D: Character Bust

Slightly creepy but this is a small bit of the 3D sculpting I've been doing. Working in 3D improves your drawing skills immensely.

Sketch: Fastag Development

More character transformation--this time with Fastag. I'm doing this partly because I have yet to understand the changes these characters go through. Fastag's chief physical change is, you guessed it, his hair! Just kidding, it's his eye. It's not missing but rather the nerves are damaged and it can no longer open. The earrings (which need to be designed...) are a symbol of status change and refraining from cutting one's hair is a cultural symbol of mourning. Still working out the details on that, too. ;P

Sketch: Silas Development

One thing I can't stand in a storyline where characters are journeying is when that journey doesn't change them. When people journey through life, they change mentally, emotionally, physically, etc. I've been exploring these changes in my own characters lately. This here is Silas. Silas' journey makes him stronger, confident, assertive, and a little braver than before. Physically, he gets a change of clothes and hairstyle. That, and he loses a chunk of ear. Oops. :T

Sketch: Bedtime

Some of my PJs. C:

Sketch: Piggy

Oink. :0)

Making headway on my storybook project!

A doodle from last night inspired by Midsummer.

Illustration: A Midsummer Night's Dream

A poster advertising Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. :)

Sketch: The Foxes

Harriet Fox and Hayward, too! Some more character development.

Sketch: Crow in Winter

What is supposed to be missing? Ring finger, left hand. What is actually missing? Middle finger, right hand. I am unreasonably upset.

Sketch: Forest

A doodle from the other day.

Watercolor: Poppy

Channeling my inner Georgia O'Keefe.

Sketch: Wreck it Ralph

I've never drawn Ralph before. Hopefully I did him justice.

Sketch: Rain boots

I'm sorry. I'm still in awe of how I have managed to live my life without gray tone paper. Here is a little girl who likes to wear rain boots.

Sketch: Graytone Face

This is pretty boring, I know. Still experimenting with the graytone.

Sketch: Graytone Giraffe

Graytone paper is my new favorite thing so have a giraffe.

Doodle: Gray tone

Bought a gray tone sketch pad and doodling is now infinitely more fun.

Sketch: Fruit Bat

Went to the zoo and realized that I need to snuggle a bat immediately.

Sketch: Crayon Tree

Today's sketch brought to you by a slightly used napkin and a box of restaurant crayons.

Pumpkin Carving: Megamind

Megamind jack-o-lantern this year!

Sketch: Fastag&Aura Redraw

This is a redrawn piece from a couple years ago that I used to adore. I typically don't draw many things like this so the posing was and still is a bit difficult. But improvement was seen, none the less. Plus, it's cute.

Gift: Sleepy Kitten

Made this for my roomie upon her return. I call her sleepy kitten. She calls me little guppy. We are friends. :0)

Digital Painting: Self Portrait

This self portrait is done from both the photo I used as a reference and the drawing I used as the base for my ethnicity studies. :0)

Ethnicity Study

These were part of an ethnicity study in which I depicted myself as six other ethnicities. In order: Afghan, Ethiopian, Indian, Kenyan, South Korean, Mexican.

Character Sketch: Harriet

She's a cutie.
