Doing some before and after posts on Instagram after reworking old pieces. I'm going to post this one later today, though I may rework the shadow first. The original piece is rectangular and so I extended it:

Apparently the february yeti prompt and my dog made an impact to my art...
Just a warm up that might, or might not be something..

So I'm making the jump from Adobe to Affinity products (because the cost for Adobe is crazy for someone just starting out and only needs Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign) and tested out Affinity Photo last night. Went for a poor man's Kim jung gi approach with nothing specific in mind. I think I'm mostly happy with Affinity Photo for my needs. As another thread pointed out it's 50% and there's a 90 day free trial so there's not too much to lose.

@HeatherBouteneff Thanks Heather! Mine too! I'll post the final pics when I get it finished.

Middle grade interiors in a vacuum didn't make much sense, so I'm making some mock ups.

I wanted to fill my Instagram with photobombing pets so I started a dtiys

A sketch I prepared for a watercolour/gouache + color pencil painting. Well, I actually do not know what I am going to use to paint it. I just want to do the painting traditionally.

@xin-li this idea is great! I can't wait to you finish it traditionally ...it will be gorgeous

Late-night doodling. Developing a body of work I can put into a calendar.

Revisiting an old sketch. First time pre-deciding my color palette in hopes it will make the process go more smoothly. How do y'all decide what colors to use? I saw an image and liked the colors so I'm going to try and emulate them in this painting.

I've been thinking about the new Mars rover, and I imagined it had a personality, and wound up with this. I'm in love with it. 2.20.21_Space_Turtle_.jpg.jpeg

Been all over the map this month so far. Taken on the draw 2500 challenge - so been working on drawing heads of mostly kids

Then switched back to pets for a couple days

I am trusting this will somehow help me get better lol

Hi Everyone!!! It's so awesome to see what you all have been working on so I figured I'd share a piece I made this weekend. I've been going back and forth between watercolor and digital painting, so yesterday I decided I would try combining the two. I used the watercolor like an under painting and then added the digital painting on top. Overall I think I'm happy with the effect of the layering but I'm definitely going to explore more to see if I can capture a bit more of the watercolor feel.

Here is the watercolor underpainting and the final version with the digital painting.
