Thought I’d draw a tribute to my favorite Pokemon.

Saw this horse-maker thing going around the other day, and felt inspired to draw my result! 

Here’s the link to it!

For @pringularity-fr! Pastel, pearly dragons and ocean waves, a delight to paint.

Done for @rotclaw earlier in the year. Red and purple color combos have really grown on me lately.

Something light and bright, I suppose. This was the result of some stylistic experimentation. I enjoyed it.

Unicorn sketch!

[blakealexanderdowning]

A pensive unicorn gazes into a turbulent river. Trying to work with colors that I don't usually paint with! This was meant to be a sketch but things happen sometimes.

Flight Rising!

[blakealexanderdowning]

Another dragon. The background is based on a dream I had a long time ago.

Magical lightning!

Done for someone on Flight Rising!

I had my acrylics out for something else, and since I also had a random canvas on hand I decided I’d try to paint with them for the first time in a long time. I forgot how nice it was to paint through something simple and self-indulgent over an evening.
