WWN: Knights and Bees


Weekly Wednesday Newsletter no. 105

[GREETING GOES HERE]

What's Going On

Lot of painting studies recently loll

Random Drawings

Birds but no bees:

I made a new background for this one:

Don't think I nailed the likeness, but I'm trying to get better at it:

I think I'm having trouble with faces cause I've created a habit of automatically using specific colors even when it's not how they actually appear. Also cause faces require much more precise measurements (that I don't have the patience for lol)

Interior Book Illustrations

A quick assignment to draw 3 interior illustrations for a book

That other board game

2 more to go I think


What I've been thinking about

I'm calling a well known board game illustrator tomorrow. I'm pretty excited! Let me know if you have any suggestions on what to ask

I think I should probably hang out with more people. I didn't go out much when I was in Seattle cause I was trying to get good, but after a certain time idk if the trade offs are that great lol

Dino nuggets

Bi-Weekly Wednesday Newsletter no. 151 [GREETING GOES HERE] What's Going On Short Story Comic I tried to step out of my comfort zone with this comic. Both by making it as concise as possible, but also by using a tone and setting I'm not used to. It's a growing experience. Er...fair warning that it's kind of violent lol I'm really excited about what I'm working on next (i.e. right now). But it'll be quite a bit before it's done lol Random Drawings Drew these for my church: What I've been...

Bi-Weekly Wednesday Newsletter no. 150! [GREETING GOES HERE] What's Going On National Park Redos I redid the national park posters. Kind of for the kick of it Here's what the old ones looked like (like 3 years ago?): If you want one, I set up the online store again, but honestly it'll be cheaper for both of us if you just email me. Also if you already bought the older versions, I can simply send one (if I haven't already)...but uh they're 2 inches shorter than the old ones haha. It's cheaper...
