I Planned To Get This Guy Up For Halloween. That Obviously Didn't Happen.

I do draw, I've just been very unmotivated lately. Also, my sketches are way better than anything I deem "finished".

These guys are from a collaborative project called Even Keel. Right now I'm working on a little glimpse into the future, where Even Keel's characters have been established and they are coexisting unsuccessfully (as is likely the case) with each other.

I’m redoing the interactive height chart for Even Keel. :) Everyone looks so much better than they did two years ago. This is just a small sample of what is to come! 

I'M TESTING SOMETHING.

Valli and Oscar! :D

Portraits from Space.

In other words, I probably won't finish the whole piece for another year.

Oh, so this is what I do instead of writing like a good little NaNo-er.

This is the quote that has kept me going ever since I started to really struggle with my artwork. An artist I looked up to said these words to me when I asked for help and they have been practically inked into my soul ever since. When I am in doubt, shame, and even feeling helpless about my work… I say these words to myself.

Then I pick up a pen, and I doodle. Because that’s what I need to do.

Don’t give up. Keep drawing.

Oscar’s badassery never fails to astound me.

Mythical Creatures Series - Abada

ABADA

This is a mythical creature from the Congo similar to a unicorn. It has two horns instead of one and stands about the size of a small donkey. The horns are said to be an antidote to poison.

I'd like to do more of these in the future, as suggested by the title. I have a few creatures in mind but I'm always open to suggestions! The more obscure the better!

I haven't posted art in a while. Have a fluffy lion.

I've been drawn to monochromatic painting these last couple days. It is so much easier than worrying about the entire visible spectrum. I was never very good at that.
