Another in what may become a series of #portraits of imaginary people. #Acrylicpaint on paper. #ArtSky #Artist #ArtPractice #visualart #painting
An acrylic portrait of a person with curly auburn hair, blue-grey skin and intense amber eyes.

So far, my favorite approach to #portraiture is to imagine a face, use a reference pic for lighting cues, and more or less sculpt that face using layers of #paint. I'm still struggling w/ proportions, and I find line work less forgiving. Also, shading is my favorite. #ArtSky #ArtPractice
An acrylic portrait of a person's face in black and white with hints of red. The portrait is rough and splotchy, and the style is moody and high-contrast.

#ArtSky More #portrait practice. This time, I used acrylic #paint rather than acrylic marker. I'm relatively pleased with how this turned out. #artist #traditionalmedium #visuallyimpairedartist
An impressionistic painted portrait of a person rendered in shades of purple and blue.

#ArtSky Scribbly #portrait practice from a reference photo. #Acrylic #marker and #illustration pen. I used a plaid background I'd previously created in my #sketchbook. I think this piece may be audible from space. #artist #artpractice #drawing #art #scribble
A colorful, scratchy-looking portrait of a person showing their face and shoulders. The portrait is done in scribbles of white and black acrylic marker. The background is a riot of criss-crossing stripes in greens, blues anx oranges. Bits of the backgeound peek through gaps in the scribbly, scratchy portrait.

#Sketching practice w/ acrylic #paint. I'd like to get better at using shadows to define my figures.
An acrylic painting of a dancer in a long skirt, their back to the viewer. One arm is held gracefully ovwr their head, the other arm out to one side. The dancer's body is shown in black and white, their skirt in yellows, greens, blues and purples. The background is purple and blue. Thd style is rough and sketchy, rather than photorealistic.

Why not put acrylic ink in an old and kinda-leaky water pen? I'm not 100% satisfied w/ how this came out, but I had fun makimg it. #art #artsky #artist #originalart #acrylicink #ink #jellyfish #blue #drawing #mixedmedia
A drawing in blues and pinks featueing a jellyfish with catlike "ears" protruding from its bell. The style is reminiscent of watercolor with black linework highlighting some of the jellyfish's delicate, frill-like striluctures.

You can always do something w/ leftover #ink. I make a mess when makimg #acrylic ink grounds. Sometimes, I press #sketchbook pages into the ink puddles on my tarp et voilá! Bonus ground! My #sketchnook is a #colorful mess. #artsky #artpractice #artexperiment
A page from a sketchbook, white paper splattered with blobs of ink in blues and greens. On top of the ink are three linocut stamps in black ink. Each depicts a fairylike creature with intricate wingd.

#Art experiment! It's a #jellyfish, but also a liiiiitle bit a #cat. I thought this cute lil' nightmare would look cool over these blotches of acrylic ink, (I like to use sketchbook pages and scrap paper to grab some of the ink that drips when I'm making grounds.)
A line drawing of a jellyfish with kitty-cat ears. It floats over a blotch of blue-green ink.

This little weirdo looks super festive. Part Mari Lwyd, part random forest spirit, they just really want to wish you a very LET ME IN. This type of creature, all skeletal and antlery, is one of my favorite things to doodle. (Um, I'm also a weirdo. But in a fun way, not a creepy way.)
A colorful piece of art featuring a black linocut Mari-Lwyd-ish skull-monster with antlers and a Santa hat. The figure wears a flowing robe and stands against a bright background in shades of green.

I think this is my favorite.of this morning's #art experiments. Acrylic ink and screen-printing ink on watercolor paper. #artist #fairy #linocut #originalart
Art - A linocut print in blaxk ink on a vibrant background of oranges and pinks. The linocut depicts a humanoid-insectoid creature with intricate, branchlike wings and large eyes. Through the gaps in the linocut, the vibrant background colors arw visible.

#ArtExperiment I love making colorful grounds with #acrylicink then adding linework. Instead of freehanding with gel pen or acrylic marker, I used #screenprinting ink and some of my hand-carved #stamps.
Art - A set of six colorful linocut prints depicting an intricate winged insectoid creature, a skull-like Mari Lwyd, and The Right Hon. Sir Felix Hantweth III.

This is the Right Hon. Sir Felix Hantweth III, one of my original characters. He's such a fancy gentleman, I felt he deserved a linocut portrait. #Art #OriginalArt #linocut #stampcarving #artist
Art - A linocut print in black ink on white paper featuring a portrait of a wide-eyed, frazzled-looking creature who wears a top hat, monocle and a fancy little jacket with a bow tie and high collar.

And here's a little acrylic-marker piece I did based on this morning's gel-pen sketch.
An acrylic marker drawing primarily in green and black. The piece features a dancer balanceing on one foot, their back to the viewer, arms raised.

What's one more new medium? A few weeks ago, I decided to try linoleum-block printing. I immediately switched to this soft rubbery material because it's much easier for me to carve, (my hands, like the rest of me, are hypermobile).
A linocut print in white screen-printing ink on black paper. The print shows a bipedal, insectoid creature resembling a grasshopper standing in profile. Wings, resembling fairy wings made from tree branches, extend behind the figuere. Its pointed face features, seen in profile, features a large, soulful eye.

I miss sharing my art, so here's some of my art.
A colorful drawing of a robot cat leaning partway into the frame. One of Robot Cat's round, orange eyes is visible. The background is an intricate mass of tiny scribbles in multiple colors.

WIP, playing with layers of colored pencil. I love drawing what I call "monsters".
A drawing in black fine-line pen and colored pencil showing a creature with a horse's skull and antlers. The bones are pink, with purple shadows and yellow highlights.

A meme with text reading, "You need a more professional LinkedIn photo", Below that, text reads, "Me: How's this?". Below that, a digital drawing of a skeletal horse with glowing eyes and a wreath on its head. The horse stands backbiting by a sunset or sunrise in a misty forest.
