art trade with Coey! I drew his characters Moth and Mantis preparing for a magic trick.

He probably won’t see this until after Acen, OHWELL

anyways, yet again I feel the colors flatten out the entire piece. Hm.

I’ve been having a little story jumble around in my head on and off about plant-like entities, here’s the first actual concept I’ve spat out.

I really want to focus on Remington’s story more than anything but since I’m going through a bit of an art slump I’m pretty desperate for anything creative to pop out.

so there ya go…

OK SO I decided I needed to do some fanart… what better way than to give some cool kidz some art as a house-warming gift!

This was Naomi’s request, Wind Waker Link

(send me your email, I’ll send over the hi-res!)

Anonymous asked: I am absolutely in LOVE with your art and your color choices! Your colors all work together, look very appealing, and create a certain "feel" and mood for your pieces. Any advice/tips/tricks on how to achieve this or on color choices in general?

ohgosh, anon too kind
colors, colors….I’m always fighting with them. I guess I care more about the overall value than the actual colors (well, in more ‘finished’ pieces). Ask myself, ‘Is there a good contrast?’ then move on to tweaking between complimentary colors. The colors I start off are never what I finish with, the end result… usually something I don’t plan. For sketches though? Completely different. Traditionally I use colored pencils for sketching, that kinda translates to my digital as well. UHHHHIdunno. I don’t even understand my own process…..if you have more specific questions feel free to ask away


HOW COLOR? let’s learn together ;B

cranberry-cadence asked: On deviantart, I saw your cosplay of the Plastered splicer! Well done! Might I ask a bit of advice? How did you achieve the effect with your clothes? Did you starch them and paint them?

the answer is gesso. Lots and lots of gesso!

It’s pretty flexible when it dries, doesn’t chip away and you can keep building it up in layers after it dries.

I didn’t do any sort of prepping…. just started to slab it on

oh, I also had the dress on mannequin dress form covered in garbage bags

Strange nymph who wears nothing at all and dislikes Storm

hahaaa I want to do more of these
