@Kristen-Lango nice this is awesome. What is the inspiration for it? I kove her face in the early sketch I bet the finished peace is great.

@Melissa_Bailey This is so good Melissa. I love your kids, they are adorable. Those hands!!! SOOO GOOD.

[ArtistErin]

@Asyas_illos Thank you Asya! Speaking of toys, I love Roblox! And Legos. Anything to which you can build something and it's not done for you

[Melissa_Bailey]

@ArtistErin aww, thanks so much! It's been so much fun going back to drawing with graphite ... and drawing joyful kids.

[Kristen Lango]

@Mary-Ramirez Aw thanks Mary! Honestly the inspo for this is just that aliens always find their way into my work haha it's one of my tropes and I love seeing a kid witness something mystical and being surprised by it

we were asked to paint our imagination of a child, so i made this little drawing

we talked about the abilities that small children are born with and how they develop. And that's what came straight to my mind.
A physicist would disagree, but the metaphor still works for me.

Still figuring out my style and im kind of enjoying myself in the progress

@Melissa_Bailey So cute!

@von_Nimmermehr Aw I love it!

@Asyas_illos I’ve been brainstorming a steampunk-themed story in my head lately so here’s various character designs of one of my characters that’s a part of it (my desk lamp doesn’t provide the best lighting I’ve been meaning to change the bulb lol)

[Melissa_Bailey]

@Kim-Rosenlof thanks, Kim!

[Asyas_illos]

@MiaNova love it!

[Asyas_illos]

@Melissa_Bailey love those rock characters!

[Melissa_Bailey]

@Asyas_illos thanks! They were too plain and boring so I added faces.

Built this tiny snowman on our elderly neighbors mailbox today he’s pretty happy about it

[Kristen Lango]

Halloween in March?!
Hahaha I only just now got around to scanning this piece I did last September. How sad is that?!

[ArtistErin]

@von_Nimmermehr This is so cute! Love it.

[ArtistErin]

@Asyas_illos Wow you have more snow there than we do in CO!!! Adorable snowman! That hat! OMG so cute

"Saving Ruby" I don't know why I am drawn to illustrating mundane things like my bland public housing flat window. The interesting part is that I did not set out to make an illustration. I started the sketching and art making process as an attempt to study rhythm in visual form, so as to translate it into the broader understanding of rhythm to help me come to terms with the lack of regularity my life is having right now.

I went into it a bit more in my March newsletter - which was frantically drafted at dawn in a hotel room because I was so caught up with the busyness of my brother's wedding prep and family visiting. So, yes, I caught at least one error after hitting send. Oh well.

This is based on my three year old daughter. I struggled a lot with drawing her hand in front of her face but it feels so good to be drawing again after so many months not being able to. I think being back to drawing has a lot to do with selfauthoring.com if any of you have heard of that.

Anyway, have a great day!!
