WE WILL NOT LAST

Got inspired to draw one of the Great Gurus I've had in mind for #TakeSolace. #penandink #previs #2d #Unity #monster #spirit #fae #guardian #keeper #sprite #heavilyFiltered

Trying to get my thoughts out on paper of ALL the crap I need to block out time for as I reorganize my schedule in prep for September. Done in my Art Book, but inspired by Bujo. #bujo #Art #Design #Planning #ironsinthefire #sanitySave #penAndInk

Having more fun with digital paint tonight. These are good exercises for me to see how well I can eyeball value when mixed with color. Loving this new brush too.

Fell in love with a new brush I made. At 100% opacity it's a nicely textured paint brush, at 88-50% it's a nice copic marker.

Trying to do more Pomodoro like art sprints as a response to something +Eric Quigley brought up this week. Speed in our craft. This was an hour long sprint of rough sketch, and a try at some more Plein Air like techniques to paint fast-and-loose color-and-value at the same time.

I could keep pushing the lines back and rendering the details if I wanted to give myself more time and make this something I think would be some comical homage to Stalenhag.

This is a snapshot of the day I had at the park. Wooing GooseFest'18 with my keytar.

With the advent of making my own dot-graph paper, and placing my pages in protectors in an A5 sized binder/journal, i'm starting to get the hang of this and find out what layouts/spacings feel good. #BulletJournal #A5 #binder #Protection #zipper #graphpaper #dotgraph #DIY

Here's a practical test of one of my self made Bullet Journal pages. In time I may author my own printable spreads. #BulletJournal #Tracker #Planner #Spread #calendar #todo #list #outline #font #color #layout #info

Finally got all the stuff I need to test my build my own bullet Journal concept. I ran off 10 sheets and for the rest of the week I'm going to just use them like large note cards to see if I can get used to designing on the grid. This will also let me see how well is heavier paper I got soaks up my needle pointed ink pens. It'll be good to try and be more disciplined with my time, but also have this at hand as I want to mock up pages ideas for Subversion Magazine, future Web Wireframes, Solemnia, and other comic ideas. #ObeyTheGrid #DIY #BulletJournal #prototype #paperWeight #pen #organizer

Here's a graphic I'd been wanting to make for some time. These are the Races of one of the Species in our Low Fantasy Fate Game. They are ordered in: most common/populace to least. #Illustration #Fate #TableTopRPG #PenAndPaperRpg #RPG #Fantasy #LowFantasy #Species #Races #Worldbuilding #CharacterCreation #Splat #Populace #Census #Distribution #Cartography #WolfMan #Furry

I may have figured out how to move forward with my apprehension in #BulletJournal . I currently use a $0.98 gridded comp book. A friend gave me a VERY nice $30 journal that intimidates me. In both if I mess up I don't want to have to take an exacto and slice out of page. So I'v decided to buy an A5 sized binder with plastic sheet-protectors and print and cut my own pages. This way if I do mess up the cost is incredibly low. And if I want to I can even retire the journal itself at the end of the year and journal / planner is still less than the nice $30 Journal. If I can get in the swing of things I'm planning to have one for my personal creative Endeavors and one for work. Once I figured out what I'm doing I'm going to make all the files I've made available so that others can enjoy this format. #BulletJournal #A5 #Paper #DIY #Journal #Tracker #CBT #Motivation #Planner

This is the finished piece. Inspired by a poem by nayyirah waheed, I came across in a friend's feed.

Here are the finals of some lines I've been working on today. I'll work on the color and shading tomorrow.

It's been nearly 20 years since I've sculpted anything. In that time I've grown to have a greater understanding of facial structure and proportions. For only having the tip of a mechanical pencil and fingernails as tools, I feel I did quite well. Put a couple of pony beads in for the eyes. Don't think I'll bother firing this one. Mostly it's a boost to my artistic self esteem. I do, so that I may increase my understanding. #sculpture #sculpy #anatomy #proportions #face #ethnic #sage

The Raggedy Man

Resharing for my PM Friends.

I'm pleased to present you with the final version of this. I've written more words on G+ [ https://goo.gl/SYXwUN ] as this is not the place for all that. #RPG #Suppliment #Art #Illustration #OC#CharacterArt #Backstory #NPC #OneSheet

Tellurion by MattRhodesArt on DeviantArt

An ongoing story told through visuals.

Matt Rhodes art is THE single greatest inspiration of who I'd love to be someday. This is his pet-project Tellurion. Few words. Just full color panels that tell a cohesive story. Check it out I've been crushing on this guy hard for years.

Progress on this. The "details" layer is hidden for now (what made Raggedy's blankets so colorful) as I haven't the time to add the swirls to the Sentry. So if he can't have details they'll just be shut off for this posting.

Progression of a character I've been working on as my Muse inspires me.

Sharing this as a mini album so you can see the progress so far. 2 sketches (one to get the concept down, another to refine the shape), Lines, and Flats/Details. I'll do the shading in the next couple of days as I get around to it.
