Today I drew this mental image I have from time to time of Rory acting out his crush. Very few people know of the other animals in Rory’s story, but this is one of them. Ishime, a panther cub. Rory wants to give her a flower.
I drew this with fine tipped sharipes on paper. I like the ability I have to do some fun ink things with sharpies but find myself wishing for the control of a quill. Now if only I had a good way to utilize various ink colors with a quill?
Drew this tonight after getting the idea that an octopus could be a one squid band. It came out pretty darned cute if I do say so myself. I can see drawing more like this, perhaps getting into more shading, drawing the little suckers and everything, for now, I present you this. The Rocktopus!
I did this painting on Friday (March 22nd) but am only able to post it today (March 24th). This has been a busy past few days. Just after putting a 44 page publication to bed CHSR (the campus & community radio station I volunteer at) is in the middle of their annual fundraising drive (FunDrive), and the first few events started. It’s been crazy, but fun, I was hocking hot dogs out in the snow on Friday at passing college students, helping The Clockwork Doctor parade around the Farmer’s Market, and then went to an acoustic show that wasn’t my style until Josh Bravener took the stage and started doing some fun covers, and then I was dancing. Add in two other social parties, recording two live shows, one on air (radio) and one live on youtube, helping clean out the station, baking (for two events), and yes, I have been quite busy.
On to the paining. This is another love your body image, I liked the vague lines I drew with a pen so I just added some watercolor to the background to give it something more. I like how it came out. I like the peaceful look to it. It looks like someone comfortable in their own skin, and isn’t that the goal? The Dream?
Done on my iPad.
I haven’t done a pop art piece in a while and to get the rust off my style I decided to do a piece featuring one of my favorite people, Tek! Tek is my husband, also known as The Clockwork Doctor, and he has wanted a pop art piece for longer than he should have waited.
I of course had to put a bang behind him, if you know Tek, you know why. I like how this one came out, and considering the subject matter it’s no surprise why.
In this drawing, Rory is very happy to have a balloon. I don’t know what it means other than it’s a happy picture, and I needed a happy today.
