Sketching the boys

Fiona the Hippo
Doing more Fiona the Hippo studies after visiting her at the Cincinnati Zoo awhile back. This is also an experiment with the Kuretake Zig Clean Color blue-gray brush pen I picked up over the weekend. You can use water to dilute the ink to give it a watercolor-like quality. It also plays well with Copics (since they’re alcohol-based)!
My sister’s getting meow-ied!
My middle sister, Larissa, is getting meow-ied! My youngest sister, Lauren, made a banner featuring Larissa’s 2 cats getting meow-ied to celebrate Larissa and her fiance’s, Kai’s, engagement. So here’s the art I made of her 2 cats for it. Congrats you lovebirds! <3
V-Day Doggo
The card I drew for my husband for Valentine’s Day. It’s our dog surrounded by all his favorite things. <3
Drawing Jam 2017
Karl and I rolled in a little later for Drawing Jam this year, but it worked out as we were able to find some good seats in the Costumed Poses room. I tend to rely a LOT on my lines, so I practiced with my color/value shapes instead.
I’ve hardly painted people with my watercolor kit, so this was good practice!
