Daily Creativity: LuLuBizou

LuLu Bizou Super Hero Amazon Woman and now PatronFor my Third Patron¹ I have not just drawn her but turned her into a super hero.  This is how I see the fantastic, amazon, exciting, happy, bubbly, enthusiastic @LuLuBizou :)  I hope she likes it.

I especially like her fiery hair and how she is flexing.  I also love how I have her holding her arms.

If you don’t know who LuLu is, she is the woman who does the sultry bumpers for my Nutty Bites Podcast, and reads the intro in french.  She is a Quebecer geek who I met at Balticon 45 (last year) and became fast friends with over the year.  She is a super fan, and a great supporter so posing her as a super hero works for me.  Oh and did I mention she adores Rory?  That helps get you good in my book too.  She has been so generous to help contribute to my artistic efforts, I now have a portfolio for those water colors I have been painting, which is good because they have been beginning to curl.

Thank you LuLu! <3

Daily Creativity: Nightcrawler

Rory as X-Men's Nightcrawler, Rorycrawler
When watching Xmen first class the other day got Tek and I talking about Rory moving about the house like Nightcrawler, one moment he’s next to you, the next, next to the cookie jar, then next to you again chomping on cookies. So I drew Rory AS Night crawler :)

I used my new pastel pencils, I like how they work.

Thankful Thursday: JRD Skinner

JRD SkinnerToday is Thankful Thursday and I am thankful to my second patron. This week I received a nice gift off my Art Re-Supply wish list from Mr JRD from Flash Pulp. JRD has helped encourage me in podcasting, writing and my art. Now he has put a few dollars to help further support me so I drew this portrait of him using the supplies he sent.

JRD is a great conversationalist on twitter, supports many creative projects and creative types of people and tends to be an all around good guy. Every person he has suggested I follow on twitter has turned out to be a gem and through his Flash Mob facebook group I have met a slew of online people that enrich my conversations, general knowledge and fun.

Look what came in the mail

Daily Creativity: Rory and his Princess

Remember I said I would hand draw a better Rory and Daenerys picture? Here it is. I based it off a photo I took during HalCon when we ran into a woman cosplayed as the mother of Dragons. She was so excited to see Rory because she was sad she hadn’t figured out how to add a dragon to her costume. Rory was thrilled to see her because she had a bloody horse heart to eat and blood dripping down her chin :)

I admit, I cheated slightly to get the proportions right on this picture, I printed out the photo and used it as a guide. This was drawn with pencil, then inked with my new sharpies.

Tek mentioned I drew a lot of Rory pictures for lent this year, and I did. I admit that using Rory makes it easy for me to find inspiration, also, it gives me more practice drawing him so when I commence working on his children’s book it will be nicer. I missed a few days this year, but all in all I think this was a good lent and a good Daily Creativity project. Expect to see more from me, but as lent is over they won’t be arriving every day.

thank you.
