R is for Red Panda 18/100 I couldn’t resist painting a red panda after seeing them sleeping like this, so adorable! Also, first time using Turner Acryl gouache, I love it! #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #redpanda #onlytruepanda #adorable #turneracrylgouache #turnerjapanesquegoauche #turnerjapanesque #artspectrum #artspectrumwatercolourpaper #sleepy #sleepypanda #endangeredanimal #endangeredanimals #savethetrees #gouache #acrylicgouache #acrylicgouachepainting #gouachepainting #gouacheillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/CcFADY1vDSV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

P is for Pangolin 16/100 The pangolin is the most trafficked animal in the world and is critically endangered. They are the only mammals with scales, they are made of keratin like fingernails and hair. Their tongues can be as long as their bodies, they live on a diet of mostly ants and termites. They roll into a ball when threatened, large cats have trouble biting through their scales. #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #pangolin #criticallyendangered #endangeredspecies #pencildrawing #colouredpencilart #coloredpencilart #colouredpencils #carandacheluminance #derwentartistspencils #polychromosfabercastell #polychromos #holbeinartistscoloredpencil #lyrarembrandtpolycolor #tonedpaperdrawing #artspecrumtonedpaper #artspectrum #procreatedigitaldrawing #canonpixmapro100s https://www.instagram.com/p/CbnPTAsPTJN/?utm_medium=tumblr

O is for Octopus (More specifically, Blue-ringed Octopus) 15/100 The blue-ringed octopus, despite it’s small size, is one of the most venemous creatures on earth, so of course it lives in Australia 😁 it’s venom is a thousand times more deadly than cyanide. Luckily it’s shy! Also, octopuses are more impressive than chameleons in their ability to change colour to camouflage with their environment, so this piece is different colours under different light, containing both phosphorescent and fluorescent paint and colour pencils. The rings on the octopus only flare blue when threatened. So much fun to create! #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #octopus #blueringedoctopus #sealife #marinelife #venemous #worldsmostdangerousanimals #dontgopokingaroundrockpools #acrylicgouachepainting #mixedmediaart #blacklightart #neonart #holbeinacrlyagouache #vallejoacrylicgouache #liquitexacrylicgouache #system3acrylicink #speedballpenandnib #holbeinartistscoloredpencil #holbeinneonpencils #pebeophosphorescentgel #carandacheluminance #prismacolorpencils #polychromospencils #etchrminipalette #adobeillustrator #canonpixmapro100 #stcuthbertsmillwatercolourpaper #stcuthbertsmill https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbb7hvPvLEM/?utm_medium=tumblr

N is for Narwhal 14/100 Known as the unicorn of the sea, and thought to be the origin of fantastical creature. The horn or tusk is actually a really big tooth thought to be able to test the salinity of water for migratory reasons. So cool! #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #narwhal #unicorn #unicornofthesea #unicornofthesea🦄 #savethewhales #globalwarmingdestryinghabitat #sennelier1887 #sennelierencre #amsterdamacrylicink #royaltalensink #drphmartinsbombayindiaink #drphmartinshydruswatercolor #liquidwatercolor #parkerquinkblue #parkerquink #schminckeliquidcharcoal #masquepen #exitmould #bleach #kumlongpointsharpener #carandacheluminance #holbeincoloredpencil #polychromos #baohongwatercolourpaper #themasterscoicecoldpressedmedium #watercolourblock https://www.instagram.com/p/CbUckXxvMqu/?utm_medium=tumblr

M is for Mandrill (Largest of all monkeys) 13/100 According to Charles Darwin, the most colourful mammals in the world (males). Their brilliant colours become more intense when excited. #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #mandrill #monkey #colourfulanimals #endangeredspecies #mixedmediaart #gouachepainting #holbeinacrylagouache #danielsmithwatercolors #winsorandnewtonwatercolours #carandachegouache #carandacheluminance #holbeinartistscoloredpencils #derwentartistspencils #polychromospencils #prismacolorpencils #carandacheneocolor1 #liquitexacrylicgouache #etchrpalette #fabrianoartisticohighwhiteHP #fabrianoartisticohotpressed https://www.instagram.com/p/CbO6zosPAGb/?utm_medium=tumblr

L is for Leumur 12/100 They come in such a striking array of colours and patterns but I felt compelled to paint this one because I was getting serious Buffalo Bill vibes from “Silence of the Lambs” 😂 Also, I gave him/her glow in the dark eyes because their scientific name means ghost, or spirit of the dead, due to their white faces and large, round eyes, and I have glow in the dark paint so why not 😁 #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #lemur #endangeredanimals #endangeredspecies #ghost #ghostlyeyes #phosphorescent #phosphorescentpaint #danielsmithwatercolors #winsorandnewtonwatercolours #davincigouache #winsorandnewtongouache #carandachegouache #carandacheluminance #fabercastellpolychromos #holbeincoloredpencils #prismacolorpencils #speedballpenandnib #drphmartinsbombayindiaink #winsorandnewton #etchrpalette #saunderswaterfordhotpress #saunderswaterfordhighwhite #glowinthedarkpaint #blacklightart #gouachepainting #mixedmediaart https://www.instagram.com/p/CbHzBBiPWW_/?utm_medium=tumblr

K is for Killer Whale (a.k.a. Orca) 11/100 One of the coolest things I learned last year is that if you spray bleach (in this instant Exit Mould, thanks mouldy Sydney houses!) onto Parker Quink ink it creates awesome effects, which make for interesting cloud or undersea impressions. Also, the biggest killer whale recorded weighed 10 tonnes, incredible! #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #killerwhale #whale #orca #undersealife #undersealandscape #ink #FWacrylicink #drphmartinstechdrawingink #quink #parkerquink #parkerquinkblue #exitmould #bleacheffects #speedballdippens #princetonvelvettouch #holbeinbrush #micadorbrushes #fabrianoartisticoextrawhite #fabrianoartisticohighwhite #fabrianoartistico640gsm #sealife #endangeredspecies #savethewhales https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca4dF7BPXUi/?utm_medium=tumblr

J is for Jackal 10/100 Had to go ancient Egyptian with a modern twist for this one. I also had to play with the materials in the Stuart Semple / Culture Hustle box of supplies I bought myself for Christmas and hadn’t had a chance to use on anything yet. Yay for neon / black light / UV art and art supplies! This piece was also done using a combination of traditional and digital media, a rough sketch followed by digital drawing in Adobe Illustrator, printed onto paper, transferred to a wooden panel and painted with various acrylic mediums. #100dayproject #100daysproject #100daysofanimals #jackal #UVart #blacklight #blacklightart #neonart #neonartsupplies #culturehustle #culturehustlegiftbox #stuartsemple #blackestblack #stuartsemplemirror #stuartsemplepinklit #stuartsemplegoldestgold #ancientegyptian #ancientegyptianart #ancientegyptianmotifs #adobeillustrator #etchrpalette #etchrminipalette #digitalillustration #digitalart #roundpanel https://www.instagram.com/p/Cax5-grPMiD/?utm_medium=tumblr
