I painted this last year for Kar’Mas, a gift exchange we do in the Flash Pulp community. I painted Doc Blue as the Doctor. Mostly thanks to his brilliant cosplay as the doctor the same year I went as the Tardis (pictured below). This is a watercolor measuring 9×13. I had a lot of fun painting this, I don’t know why I waited a YEAR to post it.
Part of the Love Your Body series, Watercolor note card. You can find the inspiration for this painting on tumblr.
After a discussion about drawing fat characters thin I found myself needing to paint a lovely fat body. Most of my models in art school were larger bodies, they are easier to paint and I find them lovely. For some reason I am hearing people say thin bodies are easier to draw, and I don’t understand that. I think it may have something to do with the influence of anime and not drawing from actual models or images but from how to cartoon books. Either way, I was very happy painting this.
