Double Header

Do you like the style of the header? If not, there's a neater version I whipped up.

Lord Ganesha Lithos

Watercolor version.
I did these litho prints a couple years ago for Drawing and Printmaking. Its supposed to be the Indian god, Ganesha (or Ganesh). Indian mythology is something I really think is interesting. I wish I had a book of Indian artwork or even some framed art prints. Oh well.

Argus's Eyes

It's a peacock. I don't know if I'm going to color it or not. My mom wants it colored but I like it the way it is. What do you think?

Fairy Tale/Literary Girls: Goldilocks

This is Goldilocks from "Goldilocks and the Three Bears". Duh. I was trying a different technique: outlining the colors with contrasting colors. I'm...not sure if it worked, though. The colors look kind of washed out. I had fun drawing the curls, though.

Crying Neku Girl w/ Butterfly Wings

My attempt at anime. I don't really draw it, not as much as my brother does, although I do like how it turned out.

Bee's Knees

Just a character I made up: Bee's Knees.

Fairy Tale/Literary Girls: Alice

This is Alice from "Alice in Wonderland". I tried to mimic Tenniel's ink drawing style but not too much. I don't know if I'm going to color it. I'm thinking about doing one from "Through the Looking Glass" but I haven't started it yet.

Aaargh!

This is just one I did before and I tweaked the color and contrast.

A Quick One...

Hey guys! I have been sans Internetis from late July. Long story. Just know I haven't been totally idle in that that time and I WILL have new stuff to post plus some little projects/excersises. I realize now why my Draw One Thing a Day for the Whole Month challenge didn't work: I was pretty much jumping into it without taking baby steps towards a big task like that. Small goals lead to big goals. That...nonsense.
What I'm planning is:
1. Small drawings/sketches of fairy tale girls (Goldilocks, Little Red Riding Hood) and literary characters (Pippi Longstocking, Dorothy Gale, Alice)
2. Specific girls from episodes of "Mystery Science Theater 3000". Even if (and in some cases, they are, meow :P) the women aren't good-looking, per se but...distinct looking. Some episodes, it'd be only one girl like in "Santa Claus", the Mexican version of a Christmas movie, the only girl is Lupita. So...it would just be sketches of Lupita. Just one example.
3. A couple non-cartoon Beatle drawings. I have one that is still unfinished that is "Help!"-inspired but yeah.

PLUS a couple of drawings I did in my past art classes that I rooted through and would like to show off, lol.
