Little Mermaid

Limited Edition Stickers!

I've just brought home a batch of Red and Wolf(see image below) stickers from the printer. Want one? Contact me privately (as in, not in the comments below, use email or something) with your mailing address and I will send you one! I promise not to keep your address, add it to my mailing list or anything else. I'll just use it on the envelope, then away it goes.



Oh, and should you see one of my stickers somewhere, say, in a public place, you might take a picture and send it to me...

Latest art

Drawing-a-day isn't going so well. Day job gets in the way, at the very least because who has time to come home, scan a picture, clean it up and still have the energy to blog it around here and there? Not me. I'm trying hard to make up for it on the weekend. So here is what I expect will be the last image for a few days at least. Somewhere between Twelve Dancing Princesses and Childe Rowland, this is a scene from a non-existant fairytale. An excuse to draw lots of people in silly animal masks. It is, of course, also posted here: http://angeldevilland.deviantart.com/#/d3hjbxj

I've left the color off this one. Because I like it in monotone, but also because the next step is going to be working in a large format with non digital color color. Wouldn't that be fun? Or possibly maddening -- all those dots!

Red and Wolf

Still playing with my light table and stippling. Wishing now I had a large glass desk or even a picture window so I could do some serious pieces with oversized paper. I have ideas for putting color into the images before scanning, but I think I need a sizable canvas to do it with. In the mean time, I'm considering experimenting with silkscreening these once I get something that resembles free time again.

Drawing Progress

So, this started out as a rough pencil sketch. Then I tossed it onto my light box and inked over it, fairly standard. Most of the details and the background were done freehand with a pen. On a lark, after stippling on the line art version, I went back to the light box to see what it would look like if I just stippled and used no lines. The results were interesting enough that I've made an animated image to show the progression. Next step is color...
