14 Days of Sketches - Day 3

This pretty red panda doesn't have a name yet, or much in the way of clothes either. I'm betting most of you don't mind. ;)

14 Days of Sketches - Day 2

Flap Malfunction.  - This lovely ursine seems to be having a problem with her pajamas, is there anyone available to offer assistance?

14 Days of Sketches - Day 1

This is Morcheeba, a vampire bat named after the band that inspired the sketch itself. Look for a song called "Blood like Lemonade". That will probably be the name of the final color piece I hope to complete next year.

14 days of Art!

Starting on Dec 1st I plan to challenge myself to draw and post one pencil sketch per day. Some will be for me and some can be commissions. 

If you would like to get one of the commission slots, please respond below with a quick description of your request/character. I might be choosing which to take if I get more requests than available spots.

Wish me luck, if I get through all 14 days I might keep going until Christmas. ;)

Happy Thanksgiving!

It's now only 29 days til Christmas! ;) Please make sure your snail mail address is included in your account information to get a holiday surprise from me!

Prelude to a Kiss

This Sunday (11/22) was Eric and my 18th wedding anniversary so it seemed appropriate to post the  color work I created for his present on our first Christmas as a couple. He loved it.

We also used this for our wedding invites :)

Scylla

A commission sketch for Draegwolf of one of his civet gals, Scylla, enjoying a cup of her favorite drink.

Sticky Fingers

Since I posted the sequel as a sketch I though I'd post the piece it is based on. As I mentioned this was my first sabertooth and being from SoCal I had to stick her in the La Brea tar pits.  (If ever in Southern California try to visit, it's really cool)

People have told me they think she looks too happy since they think she is going to die but I figure she's flirting with a handsome fellow or two off screen that will help her get out.  ;)

Sticky Buns

A sequel of sorts to my first ever sketch of a sabertooth. In 2004 drew this same girl playing in a tar pool and named  it "Sticky Fingers". So for her 10 year anniversary I thought I'd turn her around to show you her backside. ;)

Frost - color version

the full color version of Frost. I liked how the trees and background came out. I really wanted it to look cold, and added her breath, think it makes the picture.

Why is she nude and out in the cold? Does it really matter? ;)

Streaming for a few hours

Come and watch!

Frost

I was on a kick of placing my gals in natural environments in 2014 when I drew this silver fox. She's standing in a snow covered grove of birch trees, hence the title.

Follow up - Commission Sketch-a-Day for Nov/Dec

Looking at my workload I realize I need to push this back a bit. Will be starting on Dec 1st  as a 2 week run instead of a full month so I don't overlap the Holidays.

Will offer  some as commissions and keep some for myself. Think I will have you all help me decide on some as well (species poll) 

Will offer the commission slots for this event later this month.

Spotlight - color version

This is the full color version of the sketch I posted yesterday. I actually colored this one twice, I didn't like the first one and this is the second attempt. Maybe I'll post the rejected version if enough of you want to see it. ;)

Spotlight

Sketch from 2014 of a skunk putting on a show. I'm still very fond of this one, even though it is 6 years old, can't say that about every sketch I do. ;)

The title comes from the color version which has her dancing in a spotlight which is not obvious in the sketch.

Hitchhiking Ghost

Since I love The Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland I wanted to create my own hitchhiking ghost. Meet Evangeline, would you be willing to give her a lift? A sketch from 2012

As some of you may know, fall/halloween is my favorite time of the year. :)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Day of the Dead

A birthday present I drew for my Cabal sister Sara. This is Marigold the mini donkey, she's a halloween baby so this theme suits her perfectly.  

As some of you may know, fall/halloween is my favorite time of the year. :)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Commission Sketch-a-Day for Nov/Dec

Wanted to give myself an art challenge and also be something my Patrons could enjoy so I came up with this idea.  Do a commission a day for 30 days. Since it's almost Nov, it would have to start at least a week into the month and run over into Dec.

I would post the completed sketches here and all my patrons would have the option of getting at least one of the slots if they wanted one (I'd put what ever is left up for grabs on FA). Was thinking each slot would be a flat $65.

Would only take a week worth of slots at a time in case it was too much for me, so no one would pay for a sketch and not get it in a timely manner.

What do you guys think? Am I biting off more that I can chew? I personally think it will be fun and I usually do a few sketches every weekend anyways so it's only a few more a week. :)

Would make for a full month of postings too 

Sapphire

A pretty white tiger with unique markings shows off her panties. Mark must be a happy guy. 

A commission piece from this year.

Leaf Peeping

A sketch from 2013 of a sexy vixen playing in a pile of fall leaves. Was inspired to draw this piece after returning from a trip to visit my friend Sara in New Hampshire during leaf peeping season.

Wolf in Sheeps Clothing

This sketch commission from 2013 was for a sexy couple piece playing off the old phrase "Wolf in Sheeps Clothing".  I'm not the first to draw this pun in the fandom and will not be the last :)

Violet

Thought I stick with the flower theme today. This is Violet, a raccoon gal from 1995. She's a sad one, maybe she is missing someone  who use to meet her at this tire swing.

Rose

This is the completed version of the adoptable I offered in September and her name is Rose. Not sure if she got that name because of her rose-like coloring or her very small stature, since she's not much bigger the flower itself. Either way she's a cutie

Streaming 10/25

Will be stream for an hour or two and everyone is welcome to come watch. I'll be working on commissions so can't take any new work, sorry.

No treats?

My special FREE pencil sketch offer expires on Wed 10/21 at 8PM CST. So far only one of you has taken the chance of having their character monster-fied.

It's no trick but my treat. Click here to see the post and put your head - er, sorry hat - in the ring for the chance at a free pencil sketch!

Forever Drawing,

Special Halloween monster treat

As you may have seen my art cabal and I are doing a special stream of monster-fied versions of your character (or a new character if preferred) based on mysterious potion bottles.

Halloween is my favorite time of the year, so I'm offering my Patrons a special Halloween treat - the chance at a FREE pencil sketch based on another mysterious bottle we found in the very back of the potion cabinet. What will drinking it do to you? Only one way to find out!

Reply to this message if you want to participate in the drawing. Winner will be selected Wed Oct 21st at 8PM CST. Please note this is for a pencil sketch ONLY, the color options mentioned in the auction post won't be available here. Single character with some cute monsterfying, please don't enter if you are expecting hardcore gore. That's not what I do. ^_^

Please note: if you live outside of the United States I'll have to charge shipping for the original sketch if you would like it, sorry but international rates keep going up here. :(

Jekyll & Hyde Monsterfy Stream Party

Join me and my art buddies for a fun-filled afternoon of drawing, silly  conversations, and Halloween season fun with our Jekyll & Hyde  Monsterfy stream party on Tigerdile!

Purchase a potion bottle commission auction, and your character will  transform in unexpected ways while we draw it. Not for the faint of  heart, this kind of experience requires daring and a healthy sense of  adventure!

Even if you don't get a commission from one of us, come on by and hang out. Extra bodies are always welcome. ;)

I will be posting my potion bottles for auction this weekend so keep an eye out if you want to join our monster mash.

Streaming for a bit today

Streaming with Caribou for a while today, come see the arts!

It begins....

Partially set up front yard. More to come later in the month.

Candy Cane

An early skunk gal from 1994, over 26 years old. Think I'd only been in the fandom for 2 years when I drew this and skunks were a popular subject for me back then.
