TJ's WIP: Dragons, Dragons, Dragons.

Staring post for you todaaaaaay!

Just like my Floating Rapunzel one, I kept track of how I painted my header on my FB page (hmm I think I need to switch up the one on my blog as well soon!). I painted lots of line-ups during that time and I still have a few planned. I found it a good way for me to pick a subject and experiment with how I would draw e.g. unicorns and create a fun image that could be turned into possible print. There are so many things to be captured on paper that I sometimes don't even know where to start.

A few lined-ups that I created so far are for sale in my Etsy store as well. Sooo get your favorite while you can, because I'm not sure if I'll prints available.

Hmm what else can I tell you? Not much to add I think. I always have the same routine when I create my art. Research - sketching (lots of sketching) - final sketch - inking - painting - final details - scanning - minor editing - done! That's it! However, if you have a specific question, just leave it in your comment ^_^.

 

Not a whole lot of pictures this time I FOUND MORE hidden in a folder ^_^! I really like the dragons and the pictures are scattered on my FB page, so I figured adding it in on post would be easier haha.

Have a lovely day!!

Ciao!

TJ's WIP: Floating Cupcakes.

Hello Hello!

Here's a little WIP for you again ^_^. Ms. Doodologist correctly pointed out "Rapunzel of the Cupcakes"...something like that hehe. Either way, I found a cool concept sketch of Rapunzel on the internet and used this as a reference for the character and voila...floating cupcakes were born. I already showed a little peek a while back, but I did snap more pics while I was working on this one as I showed peeks on my fanpage, so I figured to placed them all together and create a little post for you guys! Hope you like it and have fun staring!!

 

 

 

You know, with this little painting it really was all about subtle details. After the two bigger washes of color, I just added colors here and there, to bring out certain characters. I think if I added too much watercolor layers, the painting would lose it's "floaty-ness"...I have no other word to describe it, sooo I hope you get what I'm trying to say haha. I also didn't re-line every thing with black either. The final picture has been edited a bit in Photoshop, just to make sure the colors are brought back to life again. Can't have dull pictures, now can we?!

Hope you liked this little WIP!!
