1. Tea and sketches


Sorry for being so quiet. Just been insanely busy. :S And I've been uploading some of my sketches and whatnot to my scrapbook file rather then to my regular DA page, just to keep it from looking to terrible. :) But took a few minutes to doodle this up last night. Wanted to try creating some quirky characters and wanted to do something similar to Alice in Wonderland, so I somehow created this. :/

Oh, Can you spot the white rabbit? :)


Just some random practice, specifically working on eyes.



Just some random sketches. Trying to work on my people skills, which really really suck. :/


I've also been putting some other things into my scrapbook file on Deviant art. They may not get shared in other places, so click here if you want to check them out to see if you've missed anything. ;)

4. Lettering with pictures

Mixed in the lettering with a couple of pictures. :) Mostly for my own amusement to create some custom wallpapers for my computer.

6. Doodles




Random doodles and practice stuff. I've went so long without sharing any of my work before, that I want to keep a visual reminder of the things I've drawn that I can easily reference later. Thus, the mass amounts of sharing lately. ;)

7. Some hideous and weird stuff



These are just some old pieces I didn't like or didn't feel like sharing before. Just to show myself how far I've come, I'm sharing them now. I know they're hideous, so no need to leave any comments as I've no plans to revisit/rework/relook at them. They're only being shared for my own amusement. :)

12. Painting Practice



I felt like trying out some painting techniques, and since I don't have that many photos of real life items to paint, or was just too lazy to go find/take pictures of them, I just picked one from some of the photos that inspire me. This one on the left by popoks is beautiful. I can't find the direct link, but her gallery is full of amazingly colorful pictures, so be sure to check them out. This one was simple and full of vibrant stuff so I tried my hand at it. Not sure I like the outcome, but it was fun to push myself to try something I don't normally do.

13. Dancing cat



A couple of pieces where I've been practicing my illustration techniques and layouts. I'm so rusty! I haven't really done anything 'illustrated' in ages. Just stand alone images usually. I'm not happy with the complete outcome of the room so far. But I like the look of the floor and wall. But I think the dancing cat would look better in an other environment. Hopefully I'll get around to creating something more accommodating for her soon. :)

16. Really random stuff

Just some random journal stuff for my DeviantArt account. I like the colors all smashed together. ;)



And I"m not really sure what this is for? Just because you guys are so moostashtic I guess. ;D

17. Blobs of practice


A couple of scarfblobs based off of this persons animal world creation.


Some random digital practice. Just some quick stuff to try to work on my strokes and digital penmanship.



Just mostly playing around with layouts here as the piece is clearly unfinished and needs much work. But I like the way it all fits together myself. I have other ideas I'd like to use the frame for so I may try to eventually get to those instead of going anywhere with this.

19. Free wallpaper and some more doodles

Some painting practice and trying to figure out some brushes for a project. Am really pleased with how some of these turned out though.



I also have a free wallpaper download of a simple My Little Pony (Rainbow Dash) picture if anyone would like to use it on their computer. I have four versions of it that you can download here.

20. Angry birds and Charlie Brown

I was greatly inspired by this piece while doodling: http://weidel.deviantart.com/art/Be-My-Valentine-Charlie-Brown-349429784. I have to admit, Charlie Brown was never my first go to cartoon as a kid, he was a bit before my time really, but as I've gotten older, I've really enjoyed seeing it more. So while it's not quite Valentine's day yet, I thought it would be fun to share this with you guys early. :)


I wanted to practice more with this latest technique of what looks like digital 'painting', I suppose, so I decided to try drawing some angry birds and pigs. I didn't have reference pics for them all at the time, so they're not all here, but thought I would share the few I did with you guys.

21. Beez and stuffz


Just some more random practice. With spring coming, I seem to be particularly drawn to bright, cheerful colors.


Just a fun piece of some random things I smashed in together for something simple.

25. Sketches

Some random doodles in or on one of my moleskin sketchbooks. ;) And sorry for the pics being off center. The new uploading system has me thrown and I'm not sure how to put them all back in line to make them look better. :p Hopefully I can figure it out soon. I hate seeing them on the side like that. It just looks out of whack. LoL!
