Daily Creativity: Rory’s reaction to a Poke Ball & the beginning of ART MONTH!

RoryPokeBall3/1/14: Today Marks the Beginning of ART MONTH! Art month is a tradition I started where I make sure I create something every day. It is the month of March, but often goes for longer, because it’s also for the length of Lent too, it came from me taking this on as part of lent one year. (You don’t always give things up, but do things to help you focus on God. Art helps me drown out life and reflect.)

So I thought I’d start us off this year with a drawing of Rory, I thought I’d try to draw him as a pokemon, asked Tek what I would need to do to display that, and he said a poke ball.  Well Rory will have none of that!  How dare you try to contain a dragon?  Imprisonment?  He thinks not!  So this was Rory’s reaction to being a pokemon, SMASH THE POKE BALL!

Daily Creativity: Rory has a crush

RoryHasACrushToday 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?

Daily Creativity: Rory Shoveling

RoryShovelingMany of you know that each year at Lent instead of giving something up, I take something on.  I take the same thing on every year.  Daily Creativity.  I create something every day.

But I haven’t yet this year, what gives?  Part of it, is I was surprised at how quick lent came, secondly I was swamped, mentally and physically.  Not an excuse, just what’s been going on.  I didn’t even write my valentine’s story this year.  I plotted for it, but never wrote it.  My lack of creativity has been draining me, so tonight I got back to something I’m good at, Drawing.

We are in the middle of a whiteout, a snow storm that is so windy you can’t see anything but white.  We have snow drifts in the middle of the road, they pulled the plows off the transcanada highway.  So I of course think of Rory all bundled up and shoveling.  In reality his humans do that for him.
