Boots

Today would be Boots' 7 year anniversary with me and 15th "birthday."

In lieu of going to life drawing, I thought it might be nice to finally make him a little tribute. This is just about how I imagined him taking off to his next adventure.

Drawing 9 - landscape

Back to the #ImprovementHell challenge! This time is drawing a landscape of a place I've never been or drawn. Well I've been looking at a bunch of cartoony background art, and I can say for sure I've never been here... so...

And just a quick shot of the birthday card I made my sister because it's just been too long since I've posted anything.

Drawing 8 - object scene

Now for the next! I was supposed to create a scene with objects in the room.

Well again, I'm in a cubicle and short of making something with pens and mugs and staplers, I thought this would be more interesting. Plus I did arrange the plants. So it counts...

Drawing 7 - object in the room

Back to the 30 drawings prompt!

This one is to pick the weirdest object in your room and draw it with shadows and highlights:

So since I'm at my desk and not in a room, this gem team present from Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is probably the most interesting thing I can draw. Or at least the light looks cool on it!

A Thief in the Night

I've needed to get this little guy out of my system for a while...

Back in October, we went camping in Death Valley, and there was an adorable kangaroo rat who kept stealing our marshmallows. He had the guiltiest face when we finally caught him in the flashlight.

I'm pretty sure he looked just like this. :)

Merlin 'toons

Starting to get the hang of sketching on the cintiq...

This is Merlin the cat. She does not understand why you're mad.

Drawing 6 - random character generation

Well this was interesting - the specs for my character were:

Body Type: Tall, Heavy

Clothing: Heavy Robes

Head Type: Human Female, Old

Weapon/Accessory: Headdress

So, after a few iterations, I'm ready to be done!

Drawings 4 and 5

4. Draw a part of the human anatomy you have trouble with x20, with atleast 5 being skeletal/musculature studies.

 5. Draw more figures. Quick gestures and silhouettes. x20, with at least 10 different body shapes.

Drawing 3 - figure in action

My time is cut short! So maybe I'll do another one of these...

And the link to the reference!

Drawing 2 - figure

My cintiq is back and functional!!!! So I'll continue:

Figure with link to reference.

I wanted to go realistic, but I'm not improving if I never do anything different!
