Just playing around with more techniques for digital coloring.

Here are some studies I did in preparation for carving a bird stamp.

I’m not quite sure who these two guys are, but they may show up in a story at some point.

Today it was beautiful and warm enough to go walk around and paint in Mt. Auburn Cemetery! We got a late start, so I just did this one piece, in gouache and pastel pencil. I didn’t really capture the nature of the tree, but I did more or less get the color, which is what I was primarily after.

(You may see some similarity to this piece from January.)

This drawing is of a kitsune, a Japanese fox spirit with magical powers. Colored pencil, with a little digital touch-up.

As part of my practice drawing horses and painting digitally, I did this Celtic gladiator piece:

Mustn’t leave out men’s fashion, by which of course I mean James Bond. This was done with Photoshop and ArtRage.

I’ve always liked this little sketch, and a few people saw it recently and said I should do more with/like it. Sounds good — want to help me brainstorm some story ideas for this cowgirl?
