Cartoon Fun

Had fun with cartoony animals and ATCs :D

brush pen, copic markers, gel pen

Ezio and Her Majesty

Did a personal ATC trade, Ezio (from the PS3 game Assassin's Creed) and horse. Lol. I picked one horse and name her Her Majesty. Pretending he got her from his parents when he was just a baby and all that.

Hope you like them!

Watercolor, ink, colored ink, gel pen, silver/gold pen

Tennis Feet

Inspired by watching Roland Garros.

Watercolor, ink, gel pen, silver pen

Black, White & Gray

I dreamed a strange dream the other night. Probably had to do with a book I was reading (Kingmaker, Kingbreaker series). There was this guy and three shapes of some kind. The guy told the shapes to stop arguing and named the strongest one Black, the weakest one Gray and the one in between White. They became humanoid and Black took off, while Gray and White kept on arguing.

So I decided to draw them. Still need to work on their background stories, but they're brother and sisters (the guy was their father). The sisters don't get along... Oh, and they all have magic powers of some sort (all I know so far is that Black can fly).

Here they are!
Ink, copic markers.

Dutch Feet

Did some more ATC feet for a trade. Hopefully, I'll have more up in a couple of days, but I can't be sure... Schools, translating, and an exciting book are sucking the time out of my days, lol.

Our scanner/printer is sort of at the end of its days, so bear with me on the colors...

Watercolor, ink, colored ink, gel pen

More Bones & Booth II

I've got one more after this (after all, how are they going to get the skeleton to the Jeffersonian?... Stay tuned!) lol

Watercolor, ink, bit of gel pen, bit of Photoshop

More Bones & Booth

Did another Bones & Booth comic. I'm having fun with these!

Watercolor, ink

Bones comic

Lol. I had fun making this, even though they don't look like Brennan and Booth at all, it was still fun to do, haha.

Watercolor, ink, photomerge (yay!), tiny bit of gel pen and photoshop.

ATC triptych: Bones

Did Bones from, well, Bones. Another ATC triptych.

Watercolor, ink, silver pen.

Penelope Garcia

Did another triptych. This time Penelope Garcia. I just love Criminal Minds and that character is so amazing. Awesome!

Watercolor, ink, colored ink, silver pen

Made on three separate ATCs.

Artist Triptych

This was so much fun to make! The trader came up with the idea (I let her make a cartoony landscape in purple hues, because she's a realistic painter, lol) and this is the result. I like it!

The image consists of three separate ATCs.

Watercolor, ink, silver pen

ATC dump

I figured this is easier than doing them individually, lol.

A bunch of ATCs!

On sale

Put another painting up on Etsy. Fun!

Acrylics, stamps (flowers on dress) and silver pen

Sold!

I sold my very first painting to a US citizen! Through the Internet! Yay! That made me so happy, you have no idea. I'm on Etsy now. Lol.

Acrylics, gold pen, gel pen, the frame is digital and not in the actual painting.

Summer Feet (again)

The Seasons

[Sorry for my spamming, have a lot to update]
In light of it being Spring (finally) I decided to do all seasons on ATCs. It was fun! I especially like the winter and summer ones.

Watercolors, ink, gel pen, gold/silver pen

Spring:


Summer:


Fall:


Winter:

Ballet & Summer

More ATCs. Apparently, ballet is very popular in ATC-land. I'm also in a summer-mood, hence the Cyclin' Feet and Think Summer and the Beach Chair - and I've done more summery feet. It just feels good with the sun finally shining and the air heating up a bit.

Watercolors, ink, gel pen, gold/silver pen

NCIS again

Did some more NCIS artist trading cards. So if you think they're so-so, keep in mind they're 2.5 x 3.5 inches (like baseball cards). Abby was particularly hard, because she's so light skinned, it's hard to give her volume. Plus her hair didn't cooperate, lol.

All of them were done with Copic markers and Prisma colored pencils.

ATCs yet again

More fun on 2.5 x 3.5 inches:

ATCs again

Finally! Did some art! And, like last time, ATCs helped me out. I'm doing a bunch of personal trades and here are the first four:

A Quilt Cat ('lapjeskat'), just because I can.
Watercolor, ink, gel pen


Running Feet II
Watercolor, ink, gel pen


Pirate Feet
Watercolor, ink, gel pen, gold pen


Scene from Little Women (Onder Moeders Vleugels),
Jo and Laurie, with the help of a screenshot
Watercolor, ink

Gosh.

Gosh.
I suck.
Big time.
I haven't found the time and place to sit down and draw in like 2 months... And that's way, way, way too long, I tell you.
So once this moving business is over - and I will gain about 5 hours a day, that are not spent on traveling - I swear I will turn back to my drawing table. Scout's honor.
So yeah.
Until soon.
I hope.

More fantasy

Did some more on my little project. These are sketches though, so they may or may not return in the final piece.

Ink, watercolors and gel pen.

Gnome


City elf

Fantasy Project

I'm working on a personal fantasy/elves project and these are practice sketches/drawings.

I also rediscovered the use of my wooden models...

Done with ink. Colors will follow as soon as possible (watercolor and colored pencil).


Forest gnome.


City elf

Forsyth Park

Okay, so I didn't draw or paint this weekend (I didn't even get to finish my lesson planning for this week).
*hangs head in defeat*
But I will update a little something. I made this when I was in the US this summer and it is far from perfect (not even good) and I have much to learn when it comes to landscapes and painting on location, but it's still good memories.

Done with watercolor and gel pen.

Missed a Month

Oh my, I missed August!
Not one post in that entire month.
Of course, I was on holiday, but that was just the first week.
Then I went on with preparing for my work (lesson planning) and suddenly school started! (I teach English.)
Now I've been working hard to get used to planning and teaching and stuff and I haven't posted anything since before I went on holiday (half July).
No fair.
I do miss it (understatement) and either today or tomorrow I will draw/paint and post.

So there.
