Day 11: Rememberance

This is really rough, but I need a mental health day. I just wanted to get something done.

@twiggyt I love these! They all have so much character and energy.

[TwiggyT]

@amandar Thank you! I'm glad you like them!

Piigvember Day 12: Sushi!

Day 13: The Doctor

[Susan Marks]

@twiggyt I am super impressed with your commitment to a drawing of this magnitude per day! 5 (nugget), 10 (windy), and 11 (remembrance) are my favorites. What they share in common to my eye is a greater depth of character. I can imagine and perhaps even more importantly I have more curiosity about their story. I’m looking forward to seeing more.

[TwiggyT]

Hi, Susan! Thanks for your comment. That's a good way to analyze these. I hadn't thought about Nugget having more depth; she was simply the only mean guinea pig I've ever had. I agree with Windy and Rememberance, though; I was a little sad that more people didn't comment on those on my social media. Especially Windy -- I really liked that one myself.

[Susan Marks]

@twiggyt alas! Sometimes I do miss the clarity of having a right, unanimous answer, like with an algebra equation!

Day 14: The Carrot Thief

I dislike trying to size images like this for Instagram. My drawings won't fit in their box.

Day 15: Bamboo

@twiggyt The Carrot Thief is my favorite!

@twiggyt I have an iPhone app called "Square" that will resize pictures for Instagram by adding a border so the main picture isn't cut off. It was either free or really cheap and works well. There are probably similar apps for Android.

[TwiggyT]

@Eli Thank you! I really like that one, too.

@demotlj Thanks for letting me know. For a lot of the horizontally-aligned images I've been taking them into Photoshop and cutting them into two 1024x1024px images, but that one just didn't look right no matter what I did. Too small in the original dimensions, lop-sided and awkward cut in two.

I just said wow out loud to some of these

Lovely stuff … some of em I can almost feel moving, as if they've been paused in motion and will resume at any moment. I like that feeling, I've felt it before with other Artists work.

[TwiggyT]

@sophie-lawson Really? You just made my day! Thank you! One of my professors in college told me I killed my art when I cleaned it up, so this really means a lot. I've been trying for an obscenely long time to make my work reflect the energy of the sketches.

Piigvember Day 16: Piigachu!

Piigvember Day 17: Queen

I'm going to be out of town this week, so unfortunately I won't be able to continue my challenge until I get home.

That said, here is my ode to traveling:
