Happy Earth Day!

Hello everyone! Hope you all are having a wonderful Earth Day and celebrating this lovely little place we call home :)

For my Earth Day celebrations I decided to create a nature-inspired piece (I was feeling some feathers and ferns today). This was done in ink, ink water-soluble pencils, and watercolor. I have to say this was so much fun I just might do a few more pieces using this method. Jellyfish, anyone?

And so - without further ado - here are some step and detail photos of my process. Enjoy!

 

I'm baaaack!

Alrighty, so after a good little dose of the infamous artist's block I'm finally back to work. Life has been a little hectic lately between weddings, housework, and job hunting. Therefore, in order to prove that I've finally got my rear in gear I am posting a couple of pics of some ground-laying I'm doing for my next piece. I know it's not too interesting, but here ya go!

Dollface #2

Here is my second attempt at the Dollface. I'm pretty sure this is about a million times better than the first one although I can still see some things that need to be tweaked a little. Also, I'm kind of thinking about turning this into a series. Thoughts?

Part of a diptych. This piece still has a looong way to go!

Creepy-ish Dollface

Done in ink and alcohol marker. I tried going for a more stylized look in this 30 minute doodle.

Life Drawing

In my last semester in college I took a life drawing class and these are a few examples of what I ended up creating:
