Bee and flower

Here is my progress on the bee flower painting. I am considering going back for one more session. 

I'm having a great time getting back into painting and I am so ready to do more. This time is different because I have a better understanding of color, so that alone has changed my experience from past artworks. 

Painting works in progress

Before applying the under-painting, I used Posca markers and colored pencils for the lines. 

On to some new adventures. These are two 8x10 paintings I started over the weekend. I would like to work up to larger canvases once I've re-acquainted myself with the process. It's been a while! 

Princess Peach stained glass

Finally wrapped up with this. I really like how this came out. Much like the Deku Tree terrarium, this was 2 months of sporadic progress. I have a little bit more free time now and I am so ready to move on with something new and not take forever to finish things!

Volcanic eruption

Trying to be more spontaneous. Like a volcano.

The original sketch was just a warmup on scrap paper and completely abstract. I decided it would be fun to draw something over it and improvise. Let's do this more often!

Louis Wain color palettes

I absolutely adore Louis Wain's later works; they have a distinct style and color scheme to them. Here is a color palette based on this series of artworks.

His trippier artworks have different color schemes. I made palettes for these artworks as well.

Deku Tree Terrarium

Calling it a day on this one. I'm fairly happy with how this came out, but I would not be opposed to re-doing it from scratch. I struggled a lot with the background and fine-tuning. It's very easy to over-work details instead of accepting the results. 

I would really like to do the other two spiritual stones as well. My idea for the Goron's Ruby artwork would be either a volcano or a lava lamp. I have my hands tied up with some other stuff right now, but once that's taken care of, I'll be able to finish artworks a lot quicker. I started this Deku Tree artwork over a month ago...

Owl trio

My alien OCs, the owl trio. I haven't drawn, or written about them, in a while. Right now I am adjusting their designs to make each owl more distinct. 

Crescentius is the short and fat one (snowy owl)

Allessandro is the tall man with a beard (eagle owl)

Apollow is the long legged one (barn owl)
