Bull or Man?

Inktober Day 13 Guarded, wasn’t sure what to draw at first. I had to think about a background story for my character.  The Minotaur was known for being the beast who lived at the center of a labyrinth and couldn’t find a way out. What if the modern day Minotaur wasn’t stuck inside, but guarded the labyrinth instead to protect it. #Inktober #InktoberDay13 #Guarded #Ink #Minotaur

Inktober Day 12 Whale… finished right before midnight, but I couldn’t post…fell asleep. I approached this illustration with pointillism, where everything is done with dots. I love how it turned out and may have to revisit this style again. What do you think of the shading? #InktoberDay12 #Whale #Inktober #ocean #mammal #pointillism

Make a Wish

One of my favorite books and even movie is “Howl’s Moving Castle” by Diana Wynne Jones… about a star, magic, and relationships. I tried to illustrate a bit of that magical feel. Have you ever made a wish on a star? I have and will do it again.

Liking the Rain

“When are you going to come in out of the rain?”

“I like the rain.”

I will never forget that conversation with my dad. What one person finds tranquil might make another shudder. I did add a dash of magic. I used to wear shirts like this hiding my hands too.

Sketching… never know where it might lead you. Can you tell who it is? It’s one of the most evil, deadliest creatures, but an interesting character. I bawled when she killed Padfoot.

Bee Done?

Having fun with my bee word play… seriously though I’m loving the contrast and texture. Its looking so good. After posing my question of special mementos and with my birthday tomorrow I’ve been reminiscing so much as I work on this one.

Continuing to work on my current project. A little slow though making some progress, a lot of detail on this one. Do you have any special mementos from a loved one?

Wanted to see what she would like in color. I may have to pick up some new Sakura Microns, my black 20s are running a bit dry. It’s making this such a slow process. Though I’m liking the idea, but the paper is not cooperating with my markers. Hmmm… should I keep going?
