Sketch-A-Day 2013: Day 14

Two weeks down, two more to go! (give or take ;))

Well... they can't all be winners, right? I just could not seem to be happy with any of the things I started, so today's sketch is a rather apologetic Kit.... it's a bit of a cop-out, but it IS a sketch.... right?

Oh, the fail...

Anyway, comments are always welcome.

Sketch-A-Day 2013: Day 13

Next up, Day 13:

Another head/bust, but today something more Harvest Goddess-esque... maybe Demeter, or Persephone when not in the underworld... maybe? Back to a bit more Art Nouveau styling going on here... if this gets finished one day, I'll definitely include some kind of Nouveau-like border/background/elements behind her.

Thoughts? Comments?

Sketch-A-Day 2013: Day 12

Day 12 offering posted!

This stopped being a "sketch" about thirty seconds after the idea took shape in my head... honestly, it still is a sketch, as I don't consider this finished, but it's far more refined than I'd usually do as a true preliminary for a finished piece.

As I noted during last year's Sketch-A-Day Project, the toned paper definitely encourages me to do more "complete" sketches, as opposed to the rough, directional lines I might ordinarily stop at if all I wanted was to get down the general idea.

So, here you go, one of nature's great dads (with some judicious leeway for anthropomorphic fantasy's sake): the seahorse. :)

Sketch-A-Day 2013: Day 11

In the immortal words of Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear: Movin' right along (with day 11!)

*For the record, I DO have that song on my iPod... and I turn it up and sing along when it comes on. :)*

I've actually had this concept in mind for some time now... I just never sat down and "plotted" it out before. It's in at least 4 different sketchbooks as a series of notes. It's not where I envision it in my head, not even in the sketch stage, but, you have to start somewhere, right?

Sketch-A-Day 2013: Day 9

Day 9's offering posted!

Uhm... I don't know? Seriously, I have NO idea where this came from. But, let me say I will probably never work on red paper ever again. It sucks, and the scanner absolutely HATES it.

We've been having some DSL issues, so *please* let me know whether or not you can see this thumbnail. If not, the sketch has been uploaded to my deviantArt account, too, HERE

Sketch-A-Day 2013: Day 8

Day 8 of the Sketch-A-Day Project!

Tiny, insect-winged fae takes a break on a long stalk of grass as she looks over her home field.

(We're having issues with the DSL, so if you can't see the image, it is also posted on my deviantArt account HERE!
