Daily Creativity: Love Your Body Watercolor Painting
Daily Creativity: Love Your Body Watercolor Painting
This Love Your Body piece is more what people traditionally thing of when they think of watercolors, and that is ok. I enjoyed playing with the color and the softness of the light bringing out the curves of the figure. You can see the reference photo that inspired this piece here, but sadly the model and photographer info were never posted, so if you know it, let me know.

Daily Creativity: Rory as Captain Canuck, Rawr Canuck?
Daily Creativity: Rory as Captain Canuck, Rawr Canuck?
Captain Canuck is a lesser known superhero, but a fun one. Since I am a resident of Canada I thought it only fitting that I finally paint Rory as the good ‘ol Captain. Who is a total rip of Captain America but totally not, because of course there are differences, but totally a rip. It’s all good, America rips off the rest of the world right? Not many superheroes use tanfas as their main weapon either.
I struggled with coming up with a Rory’fied name for this one. Captain Rawr was for that other captain. So Rawr Canuck? Dragon Canuck? I don’t know. I do know he will win a poutine eating contest, can swallow a bakers dozen of butter tarts in a single swallow, and is friends with all of the cats on Parliament Hill. (Super Canadian humor for the win).

Daily Creativity: Snorlax with Rory
Daily Creativity: Snorlax with Rory
The Snorlax is one of my favorite pokemon. Today I painted Rory and his friend snoozing. I thought of adding a Totoro to the snuggle pile but I thought that would disrupt the composition. I think I like this pokemon most because it’s big and sleeps a lot. He looks like he would be a good snuggler too. I never like the story part of the game where you have to wake him up with a flute, just let him nap, don’t wake him. Then again pokemon at it’s core is kinda a cruel notion when you think about it from the animal’s point of view. Trapped in tiny balls and forced to fight for humans? No thanks. My snoozing friend here is great because he doesn’t conform to that standard, he finds a bridge and takes a nap.

Daily Creativity: Rory Celebrates Holi
Daily Creativity: Rory Celebrates Holi
Holi has been one of my favorite things to honor in my Daily Creativity project. I wrote more about the Holi Festival perviously and why I love it so much. I’m not Hindi but it inspires me. This year I decided that Rory would celebrate. I did this using watercolor and ink on a watercolor block. I actually finished this earlier today but I couldn’t get it to the scanner. I will not be home tomorrow night, I’m staying over at a dojo, so I expect I will have to post my creativity on social media and scan it and post it later. I have two that I still need to post from two weekends ago when I was at my in laws. I scanned them, they just aren’t on this site yet. I’ll get to it.
