@Lucelfo What type of paper sketchbook do you use because I have always found I needed to use a more firm surface for my acrylic? I am super excited to see you use acrylic in a sketchbook.

@Heather-Boyd Hi Heahter ! oh yes I do and this sketchbook takes much more paint than I put on ...it 's ZETA line from stillman and birn I believe... I love it! the paper has a layer of primer on it I think, as it s for mixed media!
@Lucelfo The colors on your picture is great, and I love the frog's bright and happy face. Thanks for sharing!
There is beauty in life!
@avfarrar thank you! I love the idea of an imaginary walk through our desks, it reminds me of uni..I learnt so much in those walks!
@JennyJones Sure! thank you!
@demotlj Thank you Laurie!
I've done about 100 thumbnails over the last week for a class I'm taking with smart school. Here are some slightly refined ones.
One assignment is a slightly fantastical portrait so I'm using my bf as a model with his dogs and maybe a bow as a DnD style ranger updated to modern day. Maybe a hoodie instead of cloak. The second ones are from a creepy Neil Gaiman story "Snow Apple Glass"
Daily character prompt: "Fashionista"
Back to playing with characters and expressions for a bit . ‘New puppy - Who dis?’ Remembering my rather opinionated kitty, Lewis, who never seemed to embrace change. Wondering if the pup’s tail is reading as .... umm er ... appropriate?

@artwithashley Color palette is fantastic!!
I'm currently making an illustration for the loading screen leading into the weigh-in for my bass fishing game.
For my next illustration, I need to paint a butterfly flying quickly. This is a watercolor study I did for it but I’m not sure yet whether to use stronger line on the contours.
A DND Kenku Bard. I think I've finally tweaked my 'pencil' brush to start to work with my inking style.
@Braden-Hallett Love it! That pencil work really adds a nice touch.
To prep for my plant ABC’s and for Book Cover in partial gouache, I made a Lilly of the Vally painting. My mother’s favourite flower.
I love gouache but still have loads of exciting things to learn while I work with it.
I have started a 24hour Sabbath and so last Saturday I started a really old Paint by Numbers but didn’t have the paint anymore so I moved to my free gouache I was given.
Then I started this yesterday and completed it today. I might need to work on stronger paper. Anyways I hope you like it! I certainly do.
Please forgive poor lighting.
Making some forward progress on the weigh-in scene.
My next illustration is of a butterfly beating a horse in a race so I made a maquette of a horse to help my lousy spatial skills. I never would have known how to do this without SVS - it’s so much fun! (And next time I’ll put it on a stronger base. I had to take this quick before it toppled over.)
@Braden-Hallett Did you draw this picture digitally? If so what brushes do you use? The lines look great and convincingly like pencil (of course if it is pencil! :face_savouring_delicious_food: but they look too clean for that).

@kylebeaudette 
omg this made me laugh. good line work.
@avfarrar Allllll digital I use two HEAVILY modified brushes in Corel Painter. A super grainy 'oil' brush for the sharp pencil and a tweaked 'real' tilt pencil for everything else.
