What Am I Doing With this Degree...Oh Right This

My art blog whether it is drawings, paintings, music, videos, or writing. Art.

So for Halloween this year I put together a Star Butterfly costume. So of course I needed the wand. I made it out of Model Magic. It took me like 3 X-files episodes to complete (yes I measure time in tv show lengths lol) I am sad to see how much it cracked in the drying process but other then that I really am proud of myself. Also I never got around to painting the little hearts pink.

So on the 8th of August my big cousin Jeff died. My family has been getting along but really it’s not the same. Jeff and his two siblings and I have always been super close and me being an only child they were the closest thing to siblings I have. He was a kind soul, always ready to give a big hug or encouraging words. One of the last times I got to hang out with him was on my 21st birthday where he was there for my first legal drink and we sang country songs together. People knew him as the Chalfont Cowboy.

Now I know not all of my followers know me personally but we have a Booster page for him and my family. If we don’t get the minimum t-shirt amount sold they won’t give us the shirts only the extra money we raised. And although the funds are very important we all would love to get our t-shirts. I know some of you probably don’t know him but honestly i’m just trying to boost this booster. We only have 3 days left.

I will never forget you Jeff. Love you Cowboy and until next time. <3

This is a drawing I did of Zoe Benson from American Horror Story Coven a while back. Just a really simple drawing with a Sharpie pen.

This is a picture I drew a while back last season of The Walking Dead. I had been doing some Daryl and Beth shipping so I decided to draw this little conversation between Maggie and Beth. Took me forever to draw Maggie's teeth and I still hate how they came out. Color pencil and marker.

Another Over The Garden Wall drawing I did a little while ago. The little quote above is from a song called Out of the Woods by Nickel Creek. It's a song I hear a lot at work and as soon as I started watching the show the song was in my head. I really like drawing these characters in their original style due to the fact there is a simplicity about that yet their is such a huge range of emotions through out the show. 2D animation at its finest. For real ignore my inability to draw hands.

By the way my header photo and background to my theme are both photos I took. The header photo is of a beach in Florida. And the background photo is of a park area by my dad's house.  I'm not huge into photography at least with me as the photographer but every now and then I get some really nice photos.

My first post on this blog. This is a drawing I did of Wirt.
