I had something bum me out a little bit today. Nobody’s fault but it is what it is. So I decided to draw this up. I’m ready for fall and fall beers! I love to sit out under the moon once the temperature drops a bit and have some marzen lagers and other fall drinks. I felt like this captured the moment perfectly. I am excited for music fest in @havertownlife havertown tomorrow. I heard @levantebrewing will be pouring at brick and brew so I’ll be there sucking back some suds. I’m glad I forced myself to learn #adobeillustrator I’ve come a long way. Since then I have been able to help other artists that don’t use Illustrator or vectors and I am pretty proud of that, because when I was in their place it always felt like a huge struggle.

This one was for a friend of mine from highschool. She wanted me to change the dragon to black and white. I complied with her request, but I'm posting the original here. I think the classic red is best for the legendary creature.

Inspired by Holly Nichols.

Inspired by Stephen Gammell.

A fun little drawing iv been working on for a few days on and off. I wasn't sure what to fill so much negative space with but eventually decided on spider webs. lol Big thank you to Miss Betsi and her awesome Youtube tutorials on how to make these fun designs and more! Originally drawn in ink on plain paper and filtered and enhanced digitally afterward~

Drawn in ink and filtered digitally.

The monochromatic weekly challenge inspired me to do an eye study. I've been having a bit of a composition block and thinking about starting to sell at art fairs, so my thoughts are preoccupied. I wanted to keep practicing tho. Lemme know what you think. I used pencils, smudges, and liquify in Rebelle 6. This is not AI nor is any part of this AI.

Spooky whale time! And a touch of Mark Lanegan flavoured listening material also...

Felt inspired by this week's drawing prompt. Went with a Star Trek scene. Earth Spacedock from the movies always leaves me in awe. Tried to show it with its doors opening so you could see there is an inside. The starship's scale and perspective are off, but that is meh.

Here are a few of my drawing tools.

Jon Snow done with type. I wanted the type somewhat legible, and not layered so it used the mass as an area of black.

Loose copy of "Proton Man" from a boxed toy I've had for years. Colored pencil. What he does...lurch around if you wind him up.

This earth is tired and humanless.

The DODOSAURUS lived during the late Triassic period when dinosaurs ruled the earth with the average brain size of a peanut. This peaceful carnivore spent most its time roaming the desert lands of what is now South America hunting mice and various rodents. It wasn't until the reptile was discovered by early prehistoric humans that this majestic creature became a valuable and easily hunted food source until it was eventually hunted to extinction. ☠☠☠ RIP Dodosaurus

Decided to do something colorful to refresh my mind a bit.

This is another Stephen Gammell inspired drawing. Done with graphite, charcoal, kneeded eraser and whiteout. It ain't perfect but we gettin there!

Inspired by the landscape of Cars Land and named for the Cozy Cone Hotel. If you know, you know.
