Hi!

Not a whole lot of paintings this time since I've been under...Stress, yeah that's what we'll call it. :hehe
So...yeeep! But at least I got somethin'! :D

Warning: One picture has a BIG bee in it, if u got a problem with bees be careful.

Some girl, she was supposed to be Asian but I was trying to make her not "stereo-typed" and then she ended up not looking Asian at all...so..yay!
Image

This is 98% watercolor, with a small bit of white pen, and brown pen for the outlines.
Process Pictures can be seen here: Here

This is a result of me being stressed out a lot so I got mad and made this! xD
I just threw watercolor on some paper, let it dry, then added more watercolor over it, let that dry then doodled on top of it with a pen, white pen, and a white colored pencil.

This is a mixed media picture, used some of that cheap kids acrylic for the vase and the purple..berry...uh..things!? Lol...Watercolor, some crayola and sharpie markers, and pen.
( I finished this today)
Image

I think most people know the redraw challenge so I don't have to explain it....So...this is my progress in 8 years! Yay.......!!
Image



So...uh...yah that's what I've been up to, enjoy!

Your work has improved since I last saw your paintings. I had a similar problem to you once when I was drawing an african woman in charcoal and I didn't want her to look stereotyped. I managed to get around it somehow and gave the finished picture to a charity shop. Many years later I found it at a car boot sale going for £10. I felt so proud that day!
AnMal and myself agree that your stressed "dripping" painting looks awesome. The others do too but that one stands out.

Moko, your work gets more skilled each time you post! Your flowers are beautiful. I love the way you do the large eyes.
