@Coreyartus This makes me tired just thinking about it. What a tremendous amount of creative output this takes.

I want to the art gallery yesterday and spent some time doing a rough sketch study of Three Washer Women by Léon Augustin Lhermitte. Today I decided it would be fun to riff off that painting with bears, so here is the painting and my preliminary sketch of the bears.

@Carmanda said in Our SVS Virtual Studio November 2019:

@Braden-Hallett These are giving me life. The last one in particular has so much good energy and tension in the posing of the mouse, reinforced with the thicks-to-thins on the ink work. Elegant and fun all at the same time!

Thank you I'm really enjoying drawing these mice!

@Braden-Hallett I love those big animal pictures! Would be nice to see a story with them.

This is what kept me busy the last couple of days:
The map for a fantasy novel I've written together with a friend a long time ago. We want to publish it finally.

Next will be the cover.

I think this is the first year since Highschool I've been able to hammer out a remembrance day piece.

I'm working on some pencilwork pieces and sketches this month. This is one I just finished. I'm trying to do at least 5 in a variety of buildings, organic, etc

Kitbash spaceship I made. I'm working on making a little scifi 'scene' with my sculptures.

Stupid human. There's snow outside. Snow means stay in burrow. Stupid human.

@Braden-Hallett Love this!

[braden H]

@Anni Thanks I'm really gettin' a lot of material out of these ranch scenes.

Finished my riff on “Three Washer Women“ by Léon Augustin Lhermitte. I did it in traditional watercolor and brought it back into Procreate to tweak. Next, the Mona Lisa! (Just kidding.)

[Anni]

@LauraA This is so cute! I love the style. It reminds me of Robert Childress, one of my favorites. What media did you use?

[LauraA]

@Anni Thank you! I had to look up Robert Childress, and I found out that he was the artist who illustrated the Dick and Jane readers. I learned to read with those! (And Dr. Seuss)

The illustration I posted is all digital (Kyle brushes, textured paper I bought online, and some scanned origami paper), and now, looking at it, I'd shape it up a bit. But the point was to finish something without taking forever, so there you go!
