Watercolour and india ink on watercolour paper

AAM Inktober Day 14: Mystic

October 20, 2024 India Ink on Paper

Worked on this one at the same time as the rest of the batch I completed on oct 19, but didn't complete it until the day after because the brush pen I was using was running out of ink!

I tried refilling it with the india ink I had, but it didn't work. The pen definitely uses some special kind of ink to let it flow through w/o clogging.

Anyways, I ended up just dipping my pen in the ink and using it as a brush. It worked, it just wasn't the same experience :(

This drawing was fun. The unicorn ended up pretty well. Think I messed up on its body's form, though.

Photomontage Art Project | Salmon Rush

November 2022

Gr12 art project inspired by ___'s photomontage art style. This is a project I was dreading when I took gr12 art. I'm not a photographer and I was not anticipating making anything that I'd like. Surprisingly, I really, really liked this project.

Me and my partner took my father's gopro and canon camera and went to the local creek to bother some salmon.

I did make a digital version of it to figure out the scaling I'd need to print everything at. I then maximized profit by nesting the pictures on 8.5x11" files so that I'd spend the least amount of money printing them 🔥(because we had to do that ourselves, the school doesn't have coloured printers 🙄)

Lowkey there was only one other person whose project I liked for this assignment. A lot of them were really messy and didn't have any grounding elements. For this one I put a lot of focus on the logs in the middle. And I did splice together a lot of pictures to form the whole log, but I made sure they were all lined up so the full form was still distinguishable.

Golden Ratio

July 25, 2023 - July 26, 2023

Painting of all my bab guys I did during a cottage trip. Wanted them all in one cohesive piece, so I thought up the spiral composition so it wouldn't look ass.

I had so much fun making this (really pumped this out like it was nothing 😲) and I love love love how the final ink turned out. UGHHH I still wish i'd saved colouring it until after the cottage trip so I could have scanned it beforehand. It's not as bad as when I first painted it, but, idk, the non-coloured version just has this chef's kiss muah to it.

Microns and watercolour on watercolour paper

June 2, 2023

Pride discord pfp challenge I did.

Just felt inspired in bio and sketched this guy up. Tried a different colouring and lineart brush (really that's the key to overcoming digital art block. you just switch brushes and suddenly it's a whole new fun experience)

Fun piece to make.

Alien | Xenomorph

Drew the majority of this when I should've been working on a presentation 🗣️🗣️

Edited afterwards to increase the contrast btwn the colours and increase the width of the green stripe because the stickers I received from stickermule were really dark.

Most of the details are made up because there weren't many clear reference pictures, and the details varied depending on the reference anyways.

Pen on watercolour paper

Harry Potter | Harry Potter's Patronus

2017

Something I did when I was a little baby at art. Was super happy with how this turned out.

My sister was either the one who prompted me to paint this, or liked it so much that I gave it to her. It's still hanging in her bathroom ❤️

Acrylic paint on canvas

Hellboy | Angel of Death

I LOVE this guy's design. Go crazy every time they're on screen.

Mannn Guillermo del toro is so good at what he does. The special fx / costume design in so many of his movies is top tier ugh 😩👌

I'm so sad he didn't make a hellboy 3 and instead it got rebooted :(((((

Forever wounded 😔👊
