    Nature lover living in the greater Seattle area.

    I've created game art, book covers/interiors, tcg, character design, t-shirt graphics,, and more, for small to medium companies. Have never tried to pursue larger work, but now I'm changing that. I'm constantly pushing myself to grow artistically, and am currently enrolled in SVSLearn.

    • RE: JANUARY CONTEST: The tracks in the snow were unlike anything Will had ever seen before.

      Just relaxed this time, had fun, and went with my normal cartoony style.

      *Edit: Changed the image to fit the 500kb limit.

    • RE: JUNE CONTEST: GODZILLA'S NEXT CHALLENGER

      First time participating in a contest here!

      Got inspired, and created a traditional piece. Altered some colors digitally. Not so much a full monster design though. I really wanted to show Godzilla cowering in the presence of such an immense creature. He would be a almost a speck if I drew the whole beast. 😉

      -Edit, smaller file size to meet the 500kb requirement.

      Lack of time this month. I started and finished this today, only got about 5 hours into it. I see many things I could touch up and refine. Will take this further later. 🙂 Pencil sketch, digital colors.

    • RE: FEBRUARY CONTEST: NIGHTFALL

      (Edit: Almost blew it, left my jewelry and pink layer off. Need to double check things, I was so excited.)

    • Hello, I'm Cassandra. Finally joined, so excited to be here!

      Hello, SVS community! I'm Cassandra, a nature lover, and artist, in my early 30's, from Washington state.

      I've been following Will Terry, and Jake Parker for a long time, they have been an immense inspiration, and have made me believe that it's never too late to improve, make changes, or to seek opportunity.

      Art has been my whole life, not only for love, but as a way to cope, and pass the time. A life full of ups, and many downs, moves, and losses. I've pushed to reinvent myself, and find who I am. To put more thought into what I do, and grow as much as possible.

      I've been published with various things like childrens books, tcg, and covers, I'm looking to expand my work and land bigger and better jobs.

      Being a quiet homebody, and a bit shy, I've not posted as much as I could have over the years, but it's time to change that, It's been hard to find a "community", many sites seem cold and vast. I love the vibe here, and seeing meaningful interactions.

      Here are a few of my pieces, all traditional, even though most of my freelance work is digital:

      My newest piece - Watercolors/colored pencils
      Frog on a sheoom

      Watercolors, and a touch of white gel pen.
      search for the golden city

      Watercolors/colored pencils, I see some flaws, but am still happy with it.
      Grandpa dragon

      Watercolors
      Turtle and birble

      Watercolors are my absolute favorite medium to work with.

      My goals right now, are to produce more storybook scenes, with full bgs, and character interaction, with the longer goal of getting a good agent at some point. Aiming to complete some small sequential pieces soon. I also have started working on the Draw50things project. 🙂

      Thank you for this wonderful community.

    • Godzilla WIP! "Intimidating"

      So big that even Godzilla tucks his tail.

      I wasn't going to participate, but finally had an idea pop in my head. Not really for young children exactly, but I put some humor in it.

      So far, from sketch to this point, I've spent about 5 hours on it, not including drying time in between washes.

      9x12 inches about 70% done. need to work on the giant mouth, and make godzilla more readable. Watercolors, with a bit of gouache so far. Might add some acrylic, and colored pencils to do highlights, fix some things, and make the fires pop. Then photoshop for touch ups if need be.

    • RE: DECEMBER CONTEST: as she listened closely, she overheard them talking about her...

      Rushed the shading, so there is too much grainy texture for my liking, and no time to color. Still submitting though. 😃

      Simple entry this month. Metaphorical mental health interpretation of the prompt.

      Not to be a nuisance, but I got a 30 day free trial email, no link to the webinar. I'm already a subscriber.
