I need to get around to watermarking all of these. The internet makes me pretty paranoid about art theft.

Dragon. Colored pencil and sharpie.

Axl from Mega Man X. Property of Capcom.

Stippling done with marker.

 

Crona is property of Atsushi Ohkubo.

More stippling with markers.

Imagine how upset I was when I discovered that my sketchbook suffered water damage which blurred my marker pieces and stained other pages.

Next Set.

I can now start posting pages from the next sketchbook. It was started in December of 2010. Several of the pages were displayed different art galleries/shows. At least one is framed and will have to be posted at a later date.
So here we go:

Done in sharpie.

Monty in his "first impressions" pose. Sharpie.

Doodles. Practice with quill pens.

Messy room sketch.

2012 ATC Swap

We had a local Artist Trading Card event in August. I spent a lot of time making all of my cards by hand. Imagine my disappointment when hordes of hipsters showed up with sets of "ironic" cards that obviously took them less than an hour to make.

Oh well. At least it made people appreciate my cards more. Here are some of this years cards:

The top half of my display table.

The whole shebang.

Close-up of the bottom half.

Thanks for your patience.

I seem to have misplaced some of my sketchbooks during the move. I hope I find them soon :<
Anyway, I will soon start scanning a sketchbook that I began in December 2010. I haven't started yet, so you'll have to be content with these few loose-paper pictures from earlier in 2010.

A Saddlebred. Unfortunately, the page was too wide for the scanner, so the ears got lopped off.

Definitely need work with proportions.

Busy busy busy

Hi everyone! At the moment I am at the cottage.
"Why, how is she on the internet at the cottage? Cottages don't have internet!"
Well, my dear friends, it is because I have moved  out of my house and into the cottage. And, in September, I will be moving into a new house.
I am very excited! Unfortunately, as my scanner is packed away, this will likely be my last post until we finally do move into the new place, but we are not strangers to waiting forever for new posts, now, are we? >.>

These are the final pictures from this sketchbook from 2010:

Fun with inks. I'd like to try another one like this someday.

Marker color studies. I especially like the horses.

A whole whack of faces.

What is?

Belgians! Did you notice that I actually tried to create a background?

 I am slowly but surely catching up to my current books. The next set will be an assortment of non-bound pictures from 2010.

Newsy

Quite a bit has happened since the last time I posted, which was actually not too long ago (*pats self on back*). Cheyenne is not having a foal, she was just really fat. Willie was gelded. My sister came home from Geneva. My cat was hit by a car, but after having surgery on his badly broken arm, he should be okay. Etc, etc.
Busy times.
I've also temporarily moved to the cottage, which means no internet for me.
If you are wondering how I posted this, my answer is as follows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSf9aEETnvE

Ahem. During my time at the cottage, I have been very productive art-wise. Alas! The day that I scan in my current sketchbook is a ways away. So you will have to bide your time with the following old-stuff. Yup.

An attempt at sketching the visiting cruise ship with an old crayon. I kind of like the kids-book feel this picture has.

A picture done for an English project. I had an extremely limited color-palette to work with, which explains the over-zealous use of black for shading.

Sketch of a Buddha statue.

Scribbley cow. It's sort of charming in its own way.

Fanart of Crona from the manga/anime SoulEater, which was my obsession at the time.
