Watercolor and Ink Paintings

Arts and Drafts festival went really well, it was fun as always. I've painted a few small painitngs specially for this occasion and these two watercolor and ink paintings are the last two from those paintings.

I especially like the profile, it's an experiment gone right. I did enjoy doing other paintings with these lines, but lately it just wasn't cutting it. I wanted to use them for something new and so I did. I haven't even hoped that it would end up as well as it did, but alas.

While at an art show I have talked to a few people that inspired a couple of Tatyana skids, so the insanity of that character will continue.

Surreal, Watercolor and Ink Painting, Savage Nature



This surrealistic watercolor and ink painting is of an alien who unlike humans live in harmony with nature. They understand nature and respect it's laws. Biologically they are very similar to people. I will turn this story into a comic book/ graphic novel, I promise. Just have to get through the gallery season first. Once winter hits I will be able to get some writing done.

I will be giving away a print of this painting, so if you'd like to win one, feel free to enter. This giveaway expires on 8/29 at 11:59 pm
