Foxy paint doodle

I woke up waaaay too early this morning and couldn't get back to sleep. My ability to stay focused was nil. I tried fiddling around with gouache and this was the result. I think I learned something though? I don't know. I'll have to sleep on it and see if I retained anything.

A Lot of Cat Noses

Not ALL the cat noses, but a great many cat noses :P  They vary SO MUCH in shape; it's fascinating. The pampas cat especially has such a silly nose.

Been taking a WEE break!

I mean, not an actual like vacation type break because I've been cleaning the house and doing all the no-due-date errands I've been putting off for a longass time. Been taking a break from art and trying to get myself back on the track of what I want to do with myself. 


MFF is coming up in a month and for that I need to:

mat my prints

build frames for my paintings and frame them

fill out all the paperwork

Finish the commissionwork for Talin tbde...

Uhhhh-uuurgh

I am having an absolutely incompetent day where I just want to sit like a potato. Possible due to a sinus infection idk. 

so all I have right now are the picture taken from a shuffle through the woods this morning. Albino banana slugs are pretty rare but I found one! Also some funky fungus and my new ball mask haha.

Finished painting commission Red Lacy

Acrylic, 9 by 12.

It's amazing how a couple of days oil painting has changed my use of acrylics drastically. I went from a flatter and more methodical application of paint to something looser.

Red Lacy Portrait Commission WIP

Hey my dudes. I spent a long weekend going out and enjoying what MIGHT be the last sunny days of the year here in the Seattle area @___@   My roommate got a fancy new camera and lens and we went on a birding trip around Defiance Point Park. If anybody is interested in photos I can show the best ones.

Got back to work yesterday. I'm going to make this week commission week. Here's the first. I'm waiting on feedback before I finish off the details.

Book covers

I went on an apple-picking adventure this morning and then got started on more sketchbooks or cons. Here are the six I’m working on right now. They are mostly done. I’ve still got to make the back covers.

Warning: Crass and Stupid drawings

I was looking for some notes in old piles of paper and happened to find these. There's this game I play with my friends where we write shit down on strips of paper, put them in a pile, and randomly pick two or three, and then draw whatever words we picked. I think everyone else took theirs but here are some of mine. As you can see a lot of pervy furries contributed to the word list XD

Galarian Ponyta

Oh man, I was having some bad insomnia last night and the goofy sleep has given me one of those sledgehammer headaches today. I just feel like curling up and dying. So I haven't done anything fancy.  Did some simple digital inking. I'm attaching the PDF if you want to play with it.

Freeze

This was for an inktober prompt from a few days ago but it needed to totally dry out.

This is a japanese technique where you freeze ink on paper. It's the first time I've tried it and I love it and am learning how the ink behaves and what to do to get a look I want. The unfortunate thing about it is that, the paper being wet when it unfreezes, most of the ink washes off. Which makes me think that dye might be better. I BELIEVE I still have some in my textile box so I may try that next...

Enchantment

Plugging along with Inktober. This was drawn first in pencil and then inked with a very small brush using FW acrylic artists ink, which I think I like better than the non-acrylic kind. it's very dense and black and covers well. It's also waterproof when dry. The white on the tree was inked in with a uniball signo broad white pen. I've tried a number of gel pens for white and so far this one is the best.
