these took about an hour each, give or take. they're fairly small, coming out of the same 9x12 sheet of coldpress. im actually really kind of liking the chalk-like quality these uber cheap watercolors have once dry, i just wish they werent so good at covering my lines.

second attempt at the same character. need to work on blending out shading and getting more contrast. also need to get a proper knife because cutting 8x10 out of 9x12 paper with scissors... ugh.

doodle that got a little out of control, painted on the inside cover of my shiny new sketchbook.

2am is around the time when my brain simultaneously says "i want to paint something!" and "correct anatomy? bah, who needs it!" also, this is 11x17 so to me its unthinkably huge... oh well. its colorful if nothing else.

this is a dik-dik. i like animals with funny names.

however, i dont like this painting. im entirely dissatisfied with the way the kind of speckled fur came out, but im not entirely sure how to go about doing it right. this was done in about an hour, maybe slightly less, in the middle of the night. not an excuse for poor painting, but hey. at least i like the cloud, right?

And with a sudden POP, the sabertoothed cat slipped into extinction...

doodle. trying to let go and be less detail-oriented.
