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.
Today was April Fools, or April Fish as the french say. Each year I do a fish themed creation, today I took a photo I was saving for my Love Your Body series and transformed her into a mermaid. I tried to make it more realistic too, no hair, scales, and webbed fingers. Painted in ArtRage on my iPad using various watercolor and oil paint settings. 4/1/2015

Next in my series of Rory as the Avengers, I give you the Hulk! Or RAWR! I may have made the outline too thick, but I like how this came out, I tried to make him look angry. Watercolor and ink on paper. 3/30/2015
