Funky Creature

Hmmm. Not exactly a success, but not a complete failure either.



I really need to keep working on my painting.

Mushrooooms



Getting back into painting now that I have some time off. Acrylic on watercolour paper.

Not a bad picture considering my brushes are all split, the paper wasn't gessoed and I messed up the plate. Luckily paper can be cropped without breaking out the table saw.

Also: mushrooms NOM NOM NOM. I ate my subjects and they were delicious.

Pixie

Busy, busy weekend. Cleaning, shopping, screwing around with acrylics.... Finally got around to scanning some sketches from last year and decided to toss some colours on this:



Maybe 45 minutes' work with PS. Was doing some designs for a gang of pixie criminals. It might be fun to turn it into a bigger illo, if I can figure out what to do other than have them stand around looking nasty.

In Ur Face!



Hey, we were the second coldest place on the planet last weekend! We beat out Antarctica at -46C. WOO!

You would think "Hey you raving nutcase why are you proud of this fact?!" and I have finally realized why. It is because this is the only time when I feel more awesome than tiny stylish women with purple purses. I? I am built for the cold. I am short and pasty and *insulated*. And I'm not afraid to wear three pairs of socks simultaneously.

So three cheers for winter! I might as well get while the getting's good.

The Card Game

Finally finished this. I was almost done on Monday but Photoshop decided it didn't like saving files about an hour in.



I didn't notice that I was working on too small a size for this one. I think all I'll be able to do with it is print postcards. :P

Urban Leaper

Gonna do a bunch of character sketches this month, I think. Maybe I'll work my way through the CHOW topics from the beginning.
