A little character sheet to understand who I wanted to be part of the storm composition for this month's contest

@lpetiti That's really cool.
Just an idea, but another place to find good inspiration is used book stores as well as libraries. Me and my fiancé are kind of art book hounds and typically we come across really good books of that kind with amazing animal art at used book stores. And usually fairly cheap. -
Today I finished the first image in my big summer project: A Little Red Calendar.
I've previously made a bird calendar, but friends from different directions suggested I put one together that was a bit more story-based. I'm very interested in putting Little Red in contexts that are outside the normal scope of the story--seasons, holidays, interacting with the other characters in ways that show things happening "in the margins".
If I can keep this up, and still have time to read the plethora of books I want to tackle, too, I might have a good chunk of it done by the time school starts back up again in the fall. 11 months more, and a cover. Whew! My husband will be doing the calendar formatting later (I don't know inDesign worth crap) as he did on my last calendar. And it's going to be another 11x17" double-sided flip-top with a coil binding because that's what I can assemble at home. I may do a smaller size this time, too, but we'll see. I'm also making phone wallpaper versions of each of these images (without the calendar part) so that takes a bit of reformatting, too.

@lpetiti That is surely a great incentive towards art! I teach and I like it but would love to teach less.

Im working on the word generator assignment. Mine was lizard-painting-show. I did a successful bearded dragon child painter who's under alot of pressure for the art show but has a creative block.
-
@Solomon-Designs I would really like to see what a dragon paints.
-
@PenAndrew lol maybe the next one will be him getting through his creative block.

As a treat to myself, I sat on the floor at a local benefit dog show last weekend. I greeted and sketched as many friendly dogs as I could, and then went home and cleaned up the sketches in my studio. It was an absolute blast.
-
@Valerie-Light I love this. So much fun and so well done.

A small editorial piece i did for an independent publication. The article title is "Japan is not high tech". I think editorial illos can be really fun with the right articles and a good working relationship!

@kylebeaudette That last one of the trooper reminds me of Scott Wetterschneider's stuff he's ben posting on IG recently. Very fantastically creepy.
