For once I am a bit ahead of schedule, but that’s just cuz the art had to be done for production in advance of Champs. So here it is, one last (yeah, sure it is) image of Team 5199’s 2023 robot Trident, just in time for FRC Championships in Houston. Thanks again to all of our great alliance partners this season. . Anyone surprised by the supercharge update and rule changes? I gotta say I’m excited to see how this all plays out. Shout out to all the FRC teams headed to Houston. I’m giving away robot stickers to those who take my FRC ”This or That’ quiz - no wrong answers, just free swag. I’ll be in my dolphin beanie wandering the pits. Come find me. I’m looking forward to meeting you all and seeing what you can do on the field. . . . #frc #frcmemes #firstroboticscompetition #firstrobotics @firstroboticscalifornia @first_official_ #omgrobots @robotdolphins #stemeducation #womeninstem #robotics #graciousprofessionalism @firstupdatesnow @firstlarobotics @frc3476 @cyberporpoises #bagday #frcenergize #frcchargedup #chargedup #firstenergize #firstchargedup #energized #frc2023 #bluealliance #redalliance #firstinspires #edroth #bigdaddyroth #hotrod #californiacustoms @nerdherd687 @cobra_robotics @teamparadise.1165 @phoenix_robotics @frc702 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cq7y2uNrUhS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We’ll, this is late. I’ve been so absorbed with robot competition that I didn’t get to submit in time to meet the deadline. Nonetheless, I figured the prompt was still fun and has me actively sketching. One of the rules for this submission was no AI generated work. I haven’t even tried AI yet, but how are you guys feeling about AI generated artwork? I just saw that Adobe Firefly is In beta. I can see how it might be helpful for comping up some ideas to share, BUT … it kind of bums me out that the hand skills that I’m put so much time and effort into learning, practicing and honing can be replaced with a couple of word prompts or copied and pasted image prompts. It economically devalues hand work. Why would any business pay for talent when they can type in a couple of words and then ‘share’ someone else’s art style to generate something ‘original’ in no time and at little to no cost. That’s not the way it’s supposed to work with AI, but you’re kidding yourself if you don’t think that’s not gonna happen. Thoughts? . . . #dtiys #samdoesarts1mil #characterdesign #characterart #characterillustration @samdoesarts #drawthisinyourstyle #drawthisinyourstylechallenge #dtiyschallenge #girlfriends #handdrawn https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqp5fnSLJP7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Congrats on a great season so far, team 5199.. I’m super .proud of this team. We know how hard it is to win a regional. No matter how much skill and how great your robot is, competition is never completely in your control. 2 back to back wins in 3 weeks means we had the right team, with right solution on the right weekends, with the right alliance partners. Thanks to all the teams we allied with and played against. It was an honor to be amongst you. And to those headed to Houston, Congratulations and we are looking forward to meeting you there… now get back to work! . . . #frc #frcmemes #firstroboticscompetition #firstrobotics @firstroboticscalifornia @first_official_ #omgrobots @robotdolphins #stemeducation #womeninstem #robotics #graciousprofessionalism @firstupdatesnow @firstlarobotics @frc3476 @cyberporpoises #bagday #frcenergize #frcchargedup #chargedup #firstenergize #firstchargedup #energized #frc2023 #bluealliance #redalliance #firstinspires @nerdherd687 @phoenix._robotics @frc702 @frcteam498 @teamparadise.1165 https://www.instagram.com/p/CqX4phYL_9O/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Honestly I’ve been a bit lazy about sketching this week, but to be fair, I’ve been consumed by robots and world championships in Houston (oh yeah, we won in LA last weekend) So because I haven’t had a chance to put pen to paper, I pulled this one out of storage. It’s an old image I did of former professional poker player @evybabee. Thought It appropriate to make her the queen of hearts. In any case, back to the drawing board. Hopefully new stuff next week. . . #pokerstars #pokerplayer #worldpokertour #throwback #characterdesign #characterart #cardshark #playingcard #queenofhearts #fanart #facecard https://www.instagram.com/p/CqIbH0XLSFB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another rando ‘influenced’ image playing with vignetted color. I’m always open to drawing prompts if you guys have ideas. Just let me know. Music, movies, culture, food, fandom, anything really. I might not get ‘‘em right, but practice is practice. . . . #bubbles #bubblegum #blowingbubbles #pink #vignette #stripes #characterdesign #characterart #characterillustration #blonde #influencer @okaspen #bubblepops #chewinggum #leaning #blondehair @shawnwasabi #squeez #midifighter #otterpop https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpz1kt9r3Ol/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is it. Week 2 of FRC competition. So many surprises watching week 1 competition. Congrats to everyone who made it onto the field. For @robotdolphins it’s go time. This week we’re at our home event, the Orange County Regional here in California. The team has been working hard (I wouldn’t say tirelessly because some have been sleeping on our field - you know who you are) to prepare for our back to back to back events for the next 3 weeks. Regardless, I am proud of the efforts that went into this years rig. And since we haven’t released any reveal material, you get this years annual bot drawing as a teaser. Stay tuned to the official team IG account for real pix. BTW free robot stickers for those who find me and take my FRC poll at any of the events - find the dolphin beanie . . . #frc #frcmemes #firstroboticscompetition #firstrobotics @firstroboticscalifornia @first_official_ #omgrobots @robotdolphins #stemeducation #womeninstem #robotics #graciousprofessionalism @firstupdatesnow @firstlarobotics @frc3476 @cyberporpoises #bagday #frcenergize #frcchargedup #chargedup #firstenergize #firstchargedup #energized #frc2023 #bluealliance #redalliance #firstinspires @beach_blitz #bigdaddyroth #edroth #californiacustoms #hotrod https://www.instagram.com/p/Cph6iI3LT7-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s the final countdown 🎤Week 1 of competition starts now!!! Ready or not it’s happening. Good luck to all the teams competing this year. Next week @robotdolphins reveals our rig for the season. We’re pretty excited, but you never know what’s going to happen once real competition starts. We’ve got one more seek to dial in before the Orange County regional. Looking back on past robotics post, I realize l never created an operator badge to complete my series. Cameras, limelight, intake, telescope, pneumatics, I tried to include mechanisms suitable for an FRC challenge. Can’t wait to see what you all come up with. . . . #frc #frcmemes #firstrobotics #firstroboticscompetition @first_official_ @firstroboticscalifornia @firstupdatesnow @firstlarobotics #omgrobots #stemeducation #womeninstem #robotics #graciousprofessionalism #bluealliance #redalliance #frc2023 #firstchargedup #firstenergize #firstinspires @beach_blitz @frc3476 #finalcountdown #itsthefinalcountdown https://www.instagram.com/p/CpP5N8aLE7s/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Robot afficionados - It’s bag day! (well a little after but who’s counting?) At this point I’m talkin’ to FRC alums and vets. I miss bag day. I loved the clock countdown. The bag and tag. The time stamped picture, and the unwarranted relief of being ‘concluded’. But bag day is a thing of the past, sigh. So, to celebrate (belated) bag day, here is this weeks post. My annual Field Element Boss. This years game has robots trying to fill a series of posts and platforms with cones and inflated cubes respectively. Swipe to see the official field element that this years ‘Boss’ was based upon. Swipe to the end to see what I’m guessing robot interactions with the inflated cube game piece will be. . For any FRC team members that randomly land on this page, please stop and say hi. I look forward to seeing everyone one on the field in a couple of weeks. Let’s go . . . #frc #frcmemes #firstroboticscompetition #firstrobotics @firstroboticscalifornia @first_official_ #omgrobots @robotdolphins #stemeducation #womeninstem #robotics #graciousprofessionalism @firstupdatesnow @firstlarobotics @frc3476 @cyberporpoises #bagday #frcenergize #frcchargedup #chargedup #firstenergize #firstchargedup #energized #frc2023 #bluealliance #redalliance #firstinspires @beach_blitz https://www.instagram.com/p/Co93FbLr_2S/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Learning a new program is sooo frustrating, and at the same time so exciting. I’m new to procreate. Half the battle is trying to unlearn tools I expect to be available or similar to my adobe suite. At the same time, the alternative tool is really well thought out and easy. So it all comes down to exploration, practice and patience. So this week was a test to do everything on my tablet. It’s a start.m, not very complicated, and hopefully I’ll get better quickly. Thanks to @cyanali520 for the dtiys valentines prompt. . . . #dtiys #dtiyschallenge #characterdesign #characterart #characterillustration #sittingpretty #happyvalentinesday #valentines #valentinesday2023 #cyandrawthis https://www.instagram.com/p/CoryjaZLk1K/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So this week has been busy. I can’t seem to find enough time for all the things I want to do… including draw. The result is that I ended up rushing to post something this week. I may have to come back to it some time in the future. . In any case, over the winter break I was watching emily blunt in The English on Amazon Prime. So here’s another sketch inspired by my consumption of media. Hopefully I’ll rev this some time in the future, but no promises. . . . #amazonprimevideo #amazonoriginal #theenglish #emilyblunt #fanart #theenglishfanart #westernseries #wildwest #characterdesign #characterart #characterillustration #rifleman #perioddrama #amazonprimeseries https://www.instagram.com/p/CoaFOdvJejx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is my first sketch out of procreate. There are so many tips and tricks to this program that would probably make workflow so much faster. With that said, I was contemplating skipping this weeks sketch until I saw how fast I could get my ideas out. If anyone has a good reference, resource, or tips for drawing and painting in procreate, send ‘em my way. . . . #sketching #procreate #skatergirl #toddlerlife #toddler #skaterlife #skateboard #characterdesign #characterart #characterillustration #ambitious #hoodie https://www.instagram.com/p/CoHyb_2L7q8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I came across this DTIYS image (swipe for source) a couple of weeks back and saw the wabbit and thought I might be able to do two things at once. 1 participate in another Draw This In Your Style challenge, and 2, get a Chinese lunar new year post out (all be it a couple of days late). I know it’s not that close to the source material, but I think it still worked out. In any case, here’s wishing you prosperous new year, Gung Hay Fat Choy. . . . #dtiys #dtiyschallenge #jessicabessy1k #lunarnewyear #lunarnewyear2023 #yearoftherabbit #gunghayfatchoy #gongxifacai #characterdesign #chinesenewyear #doublehappiness #cheongsam #quipaodress #asiangirls #asianculture #goodfortune #luckyrabbit https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn15BqBLwnn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

When I first saw the prompt for this Disney Princess challenge,, I thought I’d do Mulan. Since Chinese New Years is just around the corner, it would have been a perfect match. But then I started thinking that one princess never really gets a proper attention.. KIDA - I’ve never seen her in a Disney Park, and rarely as a toy or other property. While the story of Atlantis did not revolve around Kida, IMO she still deserves the same accolades of her more well known and popular sisters. So I’m entering Kida into the face off. . . . #princessfaceoff #disneyland #disneyprincess #disneyprincesses #atlantis #lostcityofatlantis #disneyatlantis #kida #princesskida #dtiys #dtiyschallenge #characterdesign #characterart #characterillustration #disneyprincesschallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CnjvnlSLqCY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We’ll Robot season is upon us so you may see more STEM, Robot and FRC related posts, but in-between classes and build time, I need to decompress by doing some sketching. Hopefully I’ll be able to keep up with my weekly posts. With that said, Over holiday break I finally got a chance to see Bullet Train on Netflix. It was a fun little movie to take my mind off the stress of preparing for competition season AND inspired me to put this together. Here’s @joeyking as ‘the Prince’. IMHO I think she played the character perfectly.

Happy new year everyone. Looking forward to a better 2023. My hope for the year is that everyone can just be kind and courteous. It’s okay if you don’t agree or like something. Try to find a way to be civil about it. If you don’t have something nice to say, you don’t need to say anything. Other than that, have a great 2023. . . . #bekind #goldenrule #happynewyear #kindnessmatters #characterdesign #characterart #characterillustration #chill #peace #spreadlove #2023 #newyearwish #newyearwishes https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm_tXHyrJbW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s the last week of 2022, and I thought that I’d get one last winter magic image off before I dive into the turmoil of the new year. The severe winter storms back east have me thankful for the milder climate of California. Admittedly, I’m a wimp when it comes to the cold. With that said, I miss the magic of snow and shushing down the slopes. This image celebrates when the snow is silently falling in clumps and blankets the ground in pristine white. For now, keep warm and until my next post, Happy New Year.!!! . . . #characterart #characterillustration #characterdesign #influencer #snow #snowbunny #winterwonderland #christmas #happynewyear #merryychristmas #kateebartlett #seasonsgreetings #chillyweather #winterstorms #mittens #turtleneck #earmuffs #influencer #fashioninfluencer #IGinfluencer #fanart #newyear2023 .

So it’s a few days before Christmas and I’m still in Halloween mode (which is not unusual for me), but I thought I should get in at least one thing that’s holiday appropriate. I came across a DTIYS challenge from @permilleoerum last week and figured what better prompt for sketching this week. Hope everyone has a blast this holiday season - Be kind and stay healthy!!! . . . #dtiys #DTIYSholidaystressPernille #girlsinanimation #characterdesign #characterillustration #characterart #happyholidays #seasonsgreetings #happyhalloween #halloween #christmas #giftgiving #holidaystress #overwhelmed #dtiyspernilleholidaystress #candycane #tistheseason #hohoho #hotchocolate #marshmallows #ribbon #scissors #stickyfingers #drawthisinyourstyle #thewaitresses #christmaswrapping #christmasrapping #holidaystress #bekind #peaceonearth https://www.instagram.com/p/CmbpRkFL0Kq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
