@burvantill The additional white snowflake effect is delightfully magical.

@Heather-Boyd Thankyou! I was hoping it wasn’t too much.

Started working on a wacky alphabet thing. Not sure where it is going yet.

Just a little sketch of my daughter and pug.

@Chip-Valecek I love your new pieces. Are you enjoying working in this style though? I know your work had a lot of heavy outlines in the past. Have you tried some thin outlines? Great piece!!

[carlianne]

@josegalue25 thank you!! That's what I've been working on recently. I watched Lee's you tube video on texture and got some better brushes. It's really helped.

Happy Holidays y’all

I’ve been so busy this month that I haven’t been very active on the forum and feel like I missed a lot. There’s some great work on this thread. Here is a sketch I did for a potential entry to the December contest but I don’t honestly know if I’ll have time to ink and paint it. (This is in Procreate but I’d like to do it traditionally.) We’ll see if it ever gets any farther than this!

I don't know which my favorite piece of 2019 is, because I'm just working hard to get faster (and better), but here's my December piece. It's things that could happen when kids put on a Christmas pageant, and I finished it just in time because I have to get on a plane tomorrow morning! Happy holidays everyone!

@franksandovalart Peter Parker ... or Jake Parker?

This is a Christmas gift for my best friend. I just finished today, been working on it for about two weeks. It's also the piece I enjoyed doing most this year, coincidentally! This is my first drawing of a furry animal on drafting film using colored pencils, so it was new territory, I had so many skills to learn and feel like I leveled up (sometimes I'd think, no way is it possible to do the white hairs without paint, and then I watched tutorials, experimented, and did them!). 14 hours drawing the final piece, 5x7 inches in size.

@LauraA this is really, really interesting and I love the style. Seems like there's a story behind the texture or how you made it? Cool!!!

At the moment I'm working on making portfolio art for board books for very young children. With this one I wanted to refine the colour palette and still have pops of colour. Spot the children in the windows!

@Amanda-Bancroft Pretty incredible!

The adventures of Charlie and Mattymouse continue. Thank goodness every dainty farm girl carries a bowie knife/machete
