Guard Duty

Decided to work on a little shading with this one, and I’m pretty happy with it today! I have noticed that I am generally happier with how my art is turning out right now, and I think some of that is because I’m allowing my art to just be what it is, and not pressuring myself to do more than I’m ready for yet.

Also, if you noticed those shadows on the top and bottom of this piece, it’s because I’m using regular old printer paper which wrinkles from all the ink that gets put on it. Sometimes it even causes the tape to unstick from the board!… This one did that… to be fair the current tape already has a hard time sticking anyway. Which is nice because it means you don’t have to worry about it tearing the paper, the flip side is the not staying on the board which can lead to your paper getting beat up. Maybe I’ll try a mix next time.

And incase you didn’t notice, there has been a change to the comments section which should make it a little easier for some people to leave one! No pressure though.

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Hello again!

Greetings, strange one. Cute AND Creepy

I’M BACK!!!!! I apologize for dropping off like that. With redoing all of the old ones, I lost some of the love and connection with the art I was making, and as the world started up again I got more and more responsibilities and was having a hard time juggling them all, so this got set on the back burner and slowly moved to the freezer. I kept want to come back to this, and I was having a hard time figuring out how, since I’ve misplaced some of my materials, and the thought of continuing to redo the old stuff made me a little sad. Then in the past week or so I thought, what if I do it like before and use whatever is on hand? so I grabbed a good old A1 paper, some brush and line pens, and next thing I know this critter is ready to say hi! and I am excited about what I’m doing again! So, hello again!

That being said. While it may be a bit before I post videos, or redo an old one. I am/have been working on a special something for Cute or Creepy, and I will give you all a little sneak peek soon. Thank you for your patience, I hope you have a wonderful Independence Day, and your week trends toward improvement!

P.S. I have also learned that my current upload method doesn’t like big pictures unless the dpi is low… :-I

Almost a Disaster

You know what? I’m changing it up today! I want to know what you think is going on in the picture, to merit such a title as “Almost a Disaster”, and I’ll let you know what I was thinking of next week. In the mean time, I hope you are all having a good week, are staying safe wherever you are and whatever you’re doing, and have a wonderful Independence Day tomorrow!

The Wise Rainbow Dragon

The Wise Rainbow Dragon is quite the majestic sight, and you may catch a glimpse of him in the misty sunlight. If you happen to find him resting in a spot of sun, ask him your questions, one, by one. He’ll answer each question with kindness and care, till the sun has gone down and the fireflies flare. With a great sigh he’ll nudge you on home, wishing you luck with the knowledge now known. And if you happen to see him again, he’ll greet you by name like a very old friend.

Also! I will not be posting next week, as I will be attending a wedding at that time. In the meantime, stay safe and remember to take care of yourselves!

Hide And Seek Squish

Is it a fish? Is it a squid? How about a Squish? Yes, a Squish do! And I think it wants to play with you. Hide and Seek among the coral, it’s camo hides it well. But it knows you stay long, and so it aids you with a little song. You find it with a little gift for you. An iridescent rock of your favorite hue, as a reminder of your friend in the big ocean blue.

Sorry there wasn’t a post last week, stuff kept happening. Mother’s Day is Tomorrow, so don’t forget to appreciate the maternal figures in your life!

The Great Protector Of Children

Before you scream or shout, let me explain what exactly you are seeing. That thing is keeping that baby safe in a collapsing building. It is the great protector of children. With the spines on its back, stronger than any known material, it can create a protective cocoon around its self and any child it’s holding. And its marking serve as a calming focus for children, and a warning for those that wish them harm.

Life: Still no idea why it wasn’t working last week, but my scanner is working again!

Swanlike Serpents Of Sabered-Tooth

The rain starts to fall as they make their way to shore, and they realize their job needs to be done quickly. They start to slither through the giant grass, looking for those that are lost, and awakening those that are sleeping. Gently herding them to safety as the storm sets in. For many a traveler the sight of these giant swanlike serpents is quite startling, especially with their sabered-tooth, and results in their job being harder as people run away. Their solution, when there isn’t enough time to be nice, is to scoop them up with head or tail and hopefully find someone who can explain on the way back.

Tulip Not A Bat

This is Tulip. She is not a bat. What is she? No idea. I know she is transitioning from a winter to a summer coat, floating, and about as tall as the average basketball player. She also gives great hugs, and is an excellent listener if you ever need an ear.

Going For A Trim

Got ready to go in his best, looked in the mirror and found his flowers a mess. So he’s going for a trim. Not a lot! Just a skim. After a little chat, about this and that, while the scissors are going, snip and snap. He leaves with a smile on his face, and a peculiar feeling he can’t quite place.

My question is, did he go to a barber or a florist?!
