And here are two large paintings I’m working on. I’ve progressed past this pencil stage but all the photos are on my iPad. I’m using the donut painting as practice before I continue with these because colour is hard.

I’m doing a study with oil paints. DONUTS.

Next step is to start glazing and building up layers of colour.

I finished this drawing of Castille that I started in summer of 2017.

My dad passed away on March 30, 2018. I designed this to be engraved on his urn.

A painting I’m doing that needs to be done by April 2nd and there are many more things I’d rather be doing.

Piccolo using Krita.

I promise to do more in the new year. I haven’t done any art (digital or traditional) since the summer but I will definitely definitely work harder in 2018. Here’s an apple doodle I did in Art Rage.

This is obviously still a work in progress. It’s Castille from the Marielda arc of Friends at the Table!

The easiest way to paint skin that I’ve found.

Some photos from the art exhibition.

Painting 1 for the art exhibition: "Summer Dandelions" progress pictures and the finished product. Looking back, I miss that texture effect that there in the beginning.

These paintings need to be finished by June 18th. The dandelions one is more or less finished. The portrait is getting there.

[tanyaimproves]

I'm nearly done. I definitely need to do some work on the leaves.

[tanyaimproves]

There’s a site called http://paintschainer.preferred.tech that colours your drawings for you. It’s kind of neat!

Here's the underpainting to a portrait I'm doing. It looks a little creepy right now but I'll work on it.

The next step is to use glazing to knock back the other dandelions so they're not as distracting. Right now it's all very messy and makes the main dandelion look out of place.
