I’ve painted another figure on my iPad, I really like the color palate and how she just jumps out of the page. I like the fiery colors, and her hair. I often have trouble with curly hair but I got her hair really good this time (thanks to painting on the iPad and not with actual paints, I could undo several times.)

This year I’m doing NaNoWriMo in a different way. Instead of writing 50K words, I’m painting 30 pictures for my children’s book “Rory goes to the dentist.” I’m valuing each picture at 2K words, though I will say it should … Continue reading
We’ve all heard it before. Are you a pear shape? An apple shape? You’re neither. You’re person shaped. People come in different shapes and sizes, we aren’t apples, we aren’t pears, we’re people.

I don’t normally do straight paintings of established characters like this.

Sure she is is evil, but she still has everything else going for her, and she makes a really good role model. I always liked her songs and liked her attitude.
“Never under estimate the power of BODY LANGUAGE! Ha!”
I hope to one day get a cool Ursula costume going for myself, I just want to make sure that when I do, her tentacles look awesome, not cheap, that’s the big thing holding me back right now.
Ursula doesn’t apologize for anything, she takes up space and fills a room, and if she’s really mad, she just gets bigger. She’s plain awesome.
