Daily Creativity: Manatee

Manatee - Daily Creativity The Manatee is one of my favorite animals. If you haven’t seen the blog/meme The Calming Mantatee, I suggest you check it out. I wanted to do another drawing in pencils with some shading, and I thought of this because I think this mammal is soft and that works with shading. I used a method to prevent my hand, or heel of my hand, from smearing the graphite. I don’t know why it never occured to me, but simply putting a piece of scrap paper between my hand and the paper was enough to reduce the smearing to almost nil. Anything that was still smudged was easily dealt with by using a blending eraser.

Princess Tiana Daily CreativityDaily Creativity: Princess Tiana

Princess Tiana is a fantastic role model and I’m so happy with how that Disney film was crafted. I knew of Tiana before even seeing the movie, my niece was obsessed with her. There was also this amazing cosplayer who’s picture I saw around a lot, she did a great Tiana and I fell in love with her other cosplays. Her name is Brichibi, and you can find her all over the web, facebook, twitter, tumblr, and her site. I knew I was going to love her before seeing the movie. Then this past year I watched it and I did indeed fall in love with not just Tiana but so many of the characters and the story. I wish I had her as a disney princess when I was younger.

Daily Creativity: BB-8

BB-8 Daily Creativity, the Droid we're looking for.Before seeing The Force Awakens, I expected to not care at all about the orange ball droid that seemed to be overhyped and dubbed BB-8. I was wrong, dead wrong. This was a great character, not over done, but lots of fun. Able to emote without a voice or face, fantastic. Tonight, I drew her, simply out of love for her, the droid I didn’t know I was looking for. Ink drawing on paper.

Daily Creativity: Malala Yousafzai

Malala Yousafzai Daily CreativityTomorrow is International Women’s Day, and in that honor I drew Malala Yousafzai. She’s a role model for all, a champion for education, and someone who can remind us that there is more in the world than what effects us directly. I’m so impressed with this young lady and impressed with all that she has done. She is eloquent and a wonderful ambassador, so she makes a great spokesperson for her cause. Her life story is enough to inspire, many other women and girls have been through similar trauma, she is far from alone. The fact that she continues to push and promote education for all makes her a superhero to me. I drew this with pencils on paper.

Daily Creativity: Rory as Spiderman – SpiderRAWR!

Rory as Spiderman - SpiderRAWR - Daily CreativitySpiderRAWR, SpiderRAWR Does whatever a spider can
Spins a web any size Catches sheep just like flies
Look out, here comes the SpiderRAWR!

SpiderRAWR, SpiderRAWR Friendly neighborhood, Spiderdragon
Wealth and fame, he ignores a full tum is his reward
To him, life’s a great big bang up Whenever there’s a hang up
You’ll find the Spiderdragon!

Another in a series of Rory as comic book characters, this character was requested last year by Tim. I finally figured out the best way to draw this. You can see the black and white ink version before I added the color below. I like both versions, I’m starting to really like the basic black and white drawings I’m doing in ink, still, I think a comic book character needs colors, at least four colors ;) Ink and Watercolor on paper.
