I spent days drawing monkeys - with the consequence that when I went out to the market shopping - yes, I looked at people and saw monkeys - especially guys with beards. The inevitable parallels all get immediately drawn. I felt kind of bad about it, coming to that conclusion but don't hold myself to blame personally. Anyhow, nowadays on NOVA on PBS they openly refer to our kind as primates - cuz we are! lol! (insert chimp laugh here - like Cheeta on Tarzan - and why did Tarzan name his monkey Cheeta?)
The muffin-man returns - this week it's apple-blueberry-peach. The silicone muffin tin is fab - since it makes turning out the muffins so easy.
It's always nice to take a break from pushing pixels and do something real, like baking.
This was a delightful little mini-book to do.
Bunny & Fox pack a picnic...
It's just marvelous! Oh joy!
And it ends happily ever after, naturally.

A bubbly woodland party brings out only the very best furry guests. From an upcoming book that I had a wonderful time painting.
Had a wonderful time creating for the annual inktober! Only missed a week or so while away from home. Click on the link below to see them all.
Here's my idea of a fun Halloween party. This story was inspired one November morning by too much leftover halloween candy and coffee.
For
#inktober here's another experiment in line that I once did. I read about a technique that Andy Warhol used, where he'd tape two sheets of paper together and draw on one with really wet ink and then while the ink was still wet, fold it back to make the reverse print. It does give a really sloppy line quality.
Experiment, experiment and try things out. I tend to do a LOT of that in looking for new styles and techniques. So I was delighted to try this new combination of ink on watercolor and watercolor and photoshop.
I wanted the image to keep moving but I also wanted it to be bright colors - not muted monotones. (I can do a monotone version easily, but keeping bright colors is usually harder to do).
So I was pleased with how it came out.
Here's a Halloweeny
#inktober sketch for me... from a book I wrote years ago. Mostly I was trying to capture that Halloween magical feeling. As I recall I started writing it one chilly moody morning after too much french roast and a hershey bar.
I've gotten a little behind with #Inktober, but that's ok. I'm doing it for fun, so no harm.
Last night I had so many ideas! I love it when that happens.
I have a spiffy new sketchbook from my birthday that I'm using. (Thank you
Tracy!)
My St. Louis is showing. Go Cards!

First of all, I've decided to participate in Inktober, a daily challenge for the month of October. I've got some crazy deadlines, so I'm not sure I'll manage it each day, but I'll try.

I really love all things Halloween, so my sketching has been centered around that.
