Daily Creativity: Trash Panda
Trash Panda is a tumblr name for a raccoon, but I decided to take the term literally tonight. This is a fountain pen painting. I drew it with a fountain pen and then used water mixed with the ink to create a watercolor, since the ink is water soluble. I really enjoy how these come out, and it gives me a reason to use ink that isn’t waterproof. If you don’t know by now, I have let myself fall headfirst into fountain pens again. I could talk your ear off about them. I write with them, draw with them, I tinker and change their nibs or make frankenpens, and play with ink. So expect some more pieces like this in the future.

Daily Creativity: AKA Rory – Jessica Jones Rory Mashup
Daily Creativity: AKA Rory – Jessica Jones Rory Mashup
Jessica Jones is an amazing character but figuring out how to have Rory portray her was a bit difficult. Unlike many other superheroes Jessica doesn’t have a real costume, and anyone could be rearing jeans and a biker jacket, right? So I styled this one after the cover style I most think of when I think of the Alias & following comics. The washed out watercolor look. If you are a fan of the Netflix show you will notice that the opening credits also makes a nod to these covers. I posed Rory similarly but had to put more defined green for him so it was clear who was in Jessica’s spot. Watercolor painting on paper.

Daily Creativity: One Punch Man or Dragon?
One Punch Man is on Netflix finally! Just season one but it is glorious! It gets points from me for art style, going from almost no detail when Saitima isn’t fighting or energetic to total detail when he is in the zone and full on fighting.Points for pointing out tropes in anime and then subverting them. It gets points for it’s comedic timing. Points for character design and world buildings. It is just so much fun to watch. Tonight Tek wanted to see One Punch Dragon, Rory dressed as Saitima. I wanted the fist and the shopping bag included because I just adore his relaxed manor. Painted in watercolor on paper.
Daily Creativity: Venus
Daily Creativity: Venus
Venus the second planet in our solar system may look uninteresting due to it’s cloud covering but using a radar photo I painted something between the texture of the surface and the clouds above. I’ve painted some of the planets before and eventually I will paint them all. This marks the latest installment of this series. I think this is an interesting planet, the surface is much like the oceans floor, with pressure of the bottom of the marianas trench and deadly atmosphere we have much less information about Venus as we do of Mars. I like painting the planets in watercolor, I think it gives them a luminosity that I wouldn’t be able to achieve with oil paint. Watercolor on paper.
