@chrisaakins aw man EVERY time I sat down to work on this I had the same thought! THESE KIDS SHOULD BE WEARING HELMETS! I still feel guilty about it

[Alzamon]

@Braden-Hallett nah, just make them Dutch - no one uses or needs helmets there.

[burvantill]

@Braden-Hallett Certain circumstances warrant the absence of safety gear, such as a dire emergency when you must hurry and have no time for helmets. I feel that this circumstance qualifies. Great action.

Here is a vignette illustration of a little story I'm working on. Experimenting with a bit of a simpler line style

Wow @Coreyartus! Beautifully rendered! I am 100% with you on the zen-effect of studies.

Shame & Rage, respectively.

Question: Does anyone know of a good foreshortening tutorial or class?

[kylebeaudette]

Added some blue

[burvantill]

If your grandma kept giving you candy to eat, you wouldn't want to be rude by refusing, would you?
Okay, Colin.

Another piece to the fun food art series.

I've been on vacation a while so not been able to do any new work yet but I ordered some print samples to test paper stocks for when I eventually manage to get an online shop live. It was exciting to see them in real life. (Brexit isn't making postage options easy!).

[burvantill]

Which would you prefer?
A bear hug or a snow leopard hug?
Okay, Colin.

Just sent this to print. Billboard design and illustration for my local pumpkin farm. I've done a few billboards before, but non of them featured my own illustration style. Can't wait to see it up next week!

Deets all done!

Hi Everyone! Happy August!!!! I've been working on some Imaginary Circus themed characters this month, here are a few of my favorites. All are watercolor on paper.

"Twisted Sisters" Contortionist act

Lady Iridiana "The Rainbow Mermaid" with her underwater acrobatics

"Teetering Talbot" and his ball balancing act

Madame Fiammetta "The Flying Phoenix"

[Katie Carling]

@Tiffany-Thomas Wow, your watercolors are so rich and gorgeous. Do you do an underpainting or maybe many layers? These are so fun.

[NicolaSchofield]

@Tiffany-Thomas these are adorable! Madame Fiammetta is my favourite

[Tiffany Thomas]

@Katie-Carling Thank you! I do an underpainting first, usually with Burnt Sienna. Then I build layers of color on top and use White Gouache for the highlights. Here's a snapshot of the underpainting for one of the images.

[Tiffany Thomas]

@NicolaSchofield Haha, thank you so much! She was fun to paint :).
