BILE PILE

Cousteau! I mailed off a pair of dog-portrait commissions a couple days ago.

Inktober 8! We saw a baby alligator at Wild Wonders in San Diego last Saturday. Learned despite powerful bite strength, they’re very weak opening their jaws. Trying to balance studies with independent drawings. . . . . #inktober #inktober2018 #sketchbook #sketchbookstudy #alligators #gators #babygator #penandinkdrawing #prismacolormarkers #thatiboughtinhighschool #withdogwalkingmoney https://www.instagram.com/p/BpampVzBshi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v0xuusjewk80

Inktober 7. I’m not sick anymore!! Also finished some commissions I’ll post soon! Hoping to pick up the slack in the last few days of October.

The first half of Tumble Leaf season 4 is out on Amazon Prime! If you have Prime and/or kids, please check it out! I’ve had the privilege of animating on all 4 seasons of Tumble Leaf, and here’s something I painted for all that trouble. Acrylic on wood panel.

April Colors: Earth tones! Trying to figure out how to draw bees for future project plans... I feel like some of these look too much like flies. Time is limited this weekend; hoping to get a lot done!

April Colors daaaay 9? I jumped around a bit. Mixed media insects! Bright beetle beauties drawn with highlighters and brush pen layered over with gouache on construction paper.

April Colors Challenge 11: Mineral/Crystals. Drawn from some pictures I took at the Natural History Museum in London. Crystals are hard! Colored pencil and china marker on construction paper.

April Colors day 6: Gold/Silver. Umm, so I bought a grab-bag of glitter at a thrift store in Portland... I have no idea how to control glitter. So I learned what not to do! But bees sure are cool! . . . . . #bees #beeswax #beesknees #aprilcolors #faunwoodcolors #aprilcolorschallenge #goldsilver #glitterbomb #glitterati #glittermistake #glitterbee #artistsoninstagram #silverandgold #sketchbook #hymenoptera

Day two of April Colors challenge; analogous color palette! Some fuchsias from reference using colored pencil on colored paper. Had difficulty photographing this paper, but it takes prismacolor pencils really well.

Drawing the beautiful dumb birds at the LA Arboretum. .

My boss gave me miniature pencils for my birthday. I work with miniatures so I think it fits.

Sketches I’ve posed on my instagram recently. I haven’t drawn in a while but I’m trying to combine my desire to go to museums with some realistic study! For the record I drew the LACMA costumes as they were in front of me, and then took a picture for further study. The Reigning Men show is currently up at LACMA and I encourage anyone in the LA area to check it out!

I’m bad at internet, I’m bad at tumblr, here’s some sketches I posted on my Instagram!
