Sick Day Sketchin'

 My immune system thought it would be a good idea to crash on me the week before my birthday and give me a cold. 

This sketch is just a quickie I did during the duration of the song "Sweater Weather." So, this sketch is pretty straight forward. Fast sketching is fun, and sometimes difficult. But I guess that's what makes things worth while. I'll try to work out some other sketches of her, I like her hair :)

 Sorry for cropping out the legs, I wasn't a fan of the feet. I'll go in and fix them later.

Gypsies Galore

I have recently been interested in Gypsies. I have always liked things that involve magic of some sort (witches being my favorite from a very young age), so it was only a matter of time until I started drawing these lovely ladies. The first one is just a sketch  using acrylic inks to fill in some values. The bottom is an illustration I did for a Society of Illustrators competition. The majority of things I do is by hand. It's always nice to practice control with a paint brush and get a feel of your mediums. Now I just gotta go find that pen I used for outlining....

Digital Practice

My little cowgirl that came as a random idea. I've been trying to work on character designs...and also trying to get back into my digital side. (curse these talented hands). I'm trying to re-teach myself digital illustration since I'm only good at actually editing photographs with photoshop. Go figure.  I'll probably be drawing more of these little kiddies eventually.
