tentwentyfiveeleven

hiy'all. So there's a song by allison krauss called Jacob's Dream. It's realllllyyyyy effing sad. I would love to illustrate/animate it like a story. Here's a scene from it I doodle up the other day and quickly painted last night. Yeeaah, the one boy is dead. I think I might actually paint this one for real some day. acrylic, thirty minutes.
i doodled myself fighting the flu. showed it to my boyfriend (who had been dying of it earlier) and he said he'd probably just be throwing pills and medicine at it. So I drew him in there. We're both sort of alive now. I think.

a doodle.
little monster guy i'm playing around with.. pretty sure he'll have grey fur n such but who knows. i'll keep doodling him until something flows. Nothing's really flowing yet.

I'd post more often but life, sickness and loved ones have needed my time more than my paintbrushes. But we'll see :)

Thanks fer poppin' by!

don't really think i'm done with this one... but for now, sure. I was still working on it when my friend showed up to bake. Walt from Breaking Bad. Which is a fantastic show.

acrylic, bout an hour maybe
Charlie Day. I don't think I quite got him. Close, but no cigar. Gee, I'll just have to stare at his adorable face some more and try again!
acrylic, hour.

Finally found a bit of time yesterday morning to sit on my porch in the beautiful fall weather and just paint for a bit. Gonna get designing a tattoo today, and then back to work Monday.

Thanks for poppin' by!

zombie greaser


Been in a bit of a creative rut lately. Been working on some commissions and been doing work for work. Ended up in the hospital last week. So good at taking care of myself.

This is entirely from my brain. I didn't know he'd become covered in blood but.. i had a lot of lovely looking Cadmium Light Red to use and eh... it happened.

No photo reference. Couple hours, most of those hours spent watching Inception.

Acrylic in moleskine.
