Progress shot. This hexagon design was based off a folk art design I saw in a book at the library.

 

 

Alla prima strato completo con il mio gatto nero Dante.

A closeup of how I filled in the various shapes. The goal is to mix paint on the canvas but leave brushwork visible and not overwork it.

You're a picture of the devil's daughter, I'm a pitcher of holy water

I've been working on this since March. Not because it's a huge project but because I take forever to finish things. 

Gonna be honest, I kind of don't care that much about this one. It's just... okay, I guess? Maybe I'm just fatigued. Lately I've felt bored with digital art and find it hard to focus. It's funny because I used to be the complete opposite, finding it hard to give traditional art the time and effort it deserves. Can't I enjoy the best of both worlds?!

Honestly, maybe I just find my current process to be too inefficient. I get bored easily. One thing I've been struggling with is overworking my pictures, especially digitally. It's so easy to keep going. With traditional art, each decision is much more calculated, requiring slow and deliberate action. 

Eye of Dante

Shiny spoon with reflection

*Jemaine voice* SHINY!

Deep sea monstrosities

Anglerfish

Actinostephanus

Doom jelly lava lamp

Randomly picked the idea Lava Lamp. Gonna find a way to incorporate this into my story project under the concept of Doom Jelly.

The doom jelly, when ingested, invokes an overwhelming feeling of impending doom, despair, and existential dread.

Which one do you think looks the most ominous? What would you do to make it look more threatening?

Maybe it shifts colors. What causes it to change? What are its different effects?

Mascot-tish Fold

 I've been doing more work on my story project. Here is a concept for the ice cream mascot character.

Some marker practice drawings. These aren't really finished, but it's where I'm at.

Molly thumbnails

Some thumbnail studies of our first cat, Molly. I don't intend to finish these. Just wanted to see what I could accomplish with basic colors for underpainting purposes. I did make a full painting of the bottom right image, let's see if I can find it.
